Most people rarely have enough space for all of the clothes they own. Most people love to shop and hoard.
If this sounds familiar you have a few choices.

1. You can dispose of the excess.

Sounds simple enough. However to do this you may need to accept some of your wardrobe collection is not going to make a come back. Or maybe acknowledge you have not slimmed into those jeans for the last 10 years. Ask yourself is it ever really going to happen. If the answer is yes you need to remove all the larger sizes to accommodate all the new svelte designs you have purchased.

2. Buy suction storage packs and compact the excess beyond all recognition of what is actually in the bag. When complete fill the loft space to the brim. If you ever move home or have a moment of reminiscence let the air in and rummage through decades of fashion trends. Why decades, because be honest who really remembers what that have put in the loft once the hatch is closed. Out of sight and out of mind is an expression that we all know for good reason.
3. Design your bedroom to maximise the space available for the stuff you really what to keep and use. If you cannot do this yourself Verve Fitted Bedrooms can help you.
Few Homes Have Perfectly Shaped Rooms

Radiators can be in awkward places, ceilings can be slanting or have protruding supporting beams. This all adds to the challenge of bedroom design. Most people want their bedroom to be inviting, tidy and relaxing.
To create the right look and feel for your bedroom wardrobe storage can be the most important element in a bedroom, after the bed. It is vital to keep the area clear of clutter and create a free flowing space no matter how small the room. Therefore storage facilities ideally need to be adapted to each individual.
Ready-made systems or pieces of furniture are often not the best solution. They are likely to address a general storage problem rather than your own. Therefore, using highly skilled and experienced bedroom designers and bedroom fitters, you can find what’s right for you.

If you opt for bespoke fitted wardrobes they would be individually designed for your life style.

As previously mentioned, freestanding wardrobes can be a challenge to integrate. Not to mention the space between the top of wardrobe and ceiling are a haven for the hoarders amongst us. The most beautiful piece of freestanding bedroom furniture can be diminished if things are piled high. High Street Wardrobes are not designed to fit in with the shape of your room. This can mean you purchase bedroom furniture that gives you less space not more.

Sliding doors are perfect for smaller bedrooms. They require less forward opening space. In addition, mirrored sliding doors promote the effect of a bigger room. Floor to ceiling wardrobes create space that allows for more drawers or shelves to be installed. Larger items for example hatboxes, handbags and seasonal wear could be stored above your hanging space but still accessible. The days of trawling through the loft to find your skiwear could be a thing of the past.

Another source of additional space is right beside your bed. Many people have lamp tables. When designing your fitted bedroom include bedside cabinets that have at least one drawer included. By ensuring that you have at least one drawer you are adding highly valuable space that is needed for many of the small items in your home.Once again maximizing your storage potential.

Finally, if you do not own a divan bed a simple way to increase the storage space is to use storage containers designed to go under the bed. These can be under bed baskets that come in a range of sizes and styles so that they can fit under virtually any bed.

Getting the storage for your bedroom right is the first step to create the perfect end of day retreat.
