For storing T-shirts, bulky chunky-knit jerseys, PJs or anything that doesn’t demand a hanger, having at least one column of shelving is a must. You can stack colours together, or group items by function, also removing the need for a chest of drawers elsewhere. Keep your accessories and intimates tidy with a few matching wardrobe drawers. This will make the most of unused middle space and achieve a co-ordinated interior. n upboard space – that age-old problem that has plagued us all at one stage in our lives – be it in a ‘cosy’ uni digs or your first flat. and if, like most of us, you still don’t have enough room for all your shoes, clever storage can make the difference. boxInG cLever Sarah says... ‘Bedroom storage is all about being smart, under the bed or under boxing is the perfect place for shoes and the tiniest space can provide neat little belt shelves.’ set of two maIze boxes wIth lIners £20, Matalan set of three boxes £49, Idyll home rococo blanket box £229, Newtons Furniture 126 | AUGUST 2012 Words: Lisa Stevens | PhotograPh: Getty Images | stoCKIsts: Go to pg 273 If your closet is bursting at the seams, this is as good a time as any to think about an upgrade. For a great space-saver, sliding wardrobes are stylish as well as practical, and come in a variety of colours and finish. Custom-built to suit your bedroom requirements, you can mix and match interior hanging sections, shelving areas and drawer units. For spaces with an awkward shape, opting to fit a bespoke design means you will make the most of the area available.
