We've found 31 genius storage solutions and we guarantee your home is crying out for every single one
Organisation has become somewhat of a vice for me over the past year or so. Not just because of the obvious events (which we shall not mention), but because it's genuinely a therapeutic means of winding down. Feeling stressed? Tidy. Tough day at work? Reorganise the coffee table books on my coffee table. Running out of things to do at home? Streamline my accessories collection. And don't get me started on the organisation porn, storage solutions and best wardrobe hacks I've been scrolling through on Instagram and TikTok. Seriously - reams of the stuff.
Keeping my space and interior tidy is a necessity for my sanity - it also means that I don't come home to a mess after all the social events that have been booking up my calendar as of late. All this time spent at home means I'm taking better care of it, that includes finding suitable storage solutions for my belongings.

Throw it back to every semi-basic Millennial’s obsession with Marie Kondo, and the general consensus is that anything which doesn’t spark joy should go. And as we embark on a new season, there's no better time to start making some cuts. So, designate a small corner of your house or flat to storing anything you’ll be getting rid of at a later date, then ruthlessly throw away anything that doesn’t make you feel gleeful. One room at a time.
Once you’re feeling suitably decluttered, the fun can begin. It’s time to reorganise the stuff you’re actually keeping. We’ve hunted down the best storage solutions from the likes of Made.com, Oliver Bonas, John Lewis and H&M Home which will not only give your home the stylish update it deserves but keep things in order, too.
Ottomans are a great investment, because they double up as seating and storage. This one from Made.com was originally a limited edition piece, but shoppers loved it so much that they decided to bring it back. Put it at the end of your bed and use it to store shoes, coats and jumpers. If you want an accessibly-priced alternative, consider storage trunks. Although we wouldn’t recommend sitting on them, they’re very Pinterest. These storage trunks are stackable, roomy, hardwearing and finished with metallic accents.
If you’re short on space, consider under-bed storage bags for shoes and random bits that don't have another home, and invest in a bath tray to keep your favourite bubble bath, shower gel, bath gift sets and bath oils handy. Section organisers like these will keep your accessories and intimates tidy, while this woven loo roll holder will keep your toilet roll stacked away. Who knew bog roll could look so chic? We've also found a turnable to help you reach the deepest, darkest depths of your kitchen cupboards without unloading everything, a desktop organiser for keeping your WFH essentials at bay and a magazine rack to pop in your living space and house your old copies of GLAMOUR. Shameless plug.
