The Best Ways To Gain More Space In Your Home

January 24, 2020 by Ashley T

Do you constantly find that you are running out of space in your property? You might be tempted to simply move to a larger home. However, before you take this step, it’s important to note that this is always going to be expensive and it might not be completely necessary. There are other possibilities that you should consider first that could provide the benefits that you are searching for. 

Get More Storage Space

There are numerous ways to add more storage space to your home. For instance, you can just add some more options for storage and this can be all it takes. There are lots of possibilities here too and some are going to look lovely as part of any room in your home. For instance, for the rustic charm, you can explore a huge selection of handmade baskets that can be custom designed to suit your individual needs. 

Alternatively, you might want to think about actually increasing the amount of storage space you have. One option here is to add walk-in wardrobes. To do this, you will need to build an artificial wall in a few rooms of your home. While this can make the room smaller, it can provide the extra storage room you need while still allowing you to have a beautiful bedroom. 

Use The Space You Have Wisely

You might also want to consider completing a conversion on your property. One of the best conversions is a garage conversion. This is going to be a great choice if you hardly ever bother to store your vehicle inside the garage. It’s possible that your garage has actually just become a place where you put rubbish and junk in your home. If that’s the case, a conversion can be a great possibility for your space problem. It’s easier than most people think to accomplish as well. The biggest job is going to be changing the area that is currently the garage door. If you are wondering what to consider before hiring a garage door company, follow this link and browse through the site. However, you can use a contractor to complete this particular aspect of the conversion for you and ensure that you get the quality change you need. 

Consider An Extension

Finally, you might consider an extension. The big question to ask here is whether you have more space than you need in the garden. Usually, the answer is going to be yes, particularly if you hate maintaining your garden. If that’s the case, then it makes a lot of sense to reduce it down to size as much as possible. The right extension will provide a wealth of benefits that you need and ensure that your home looks incredible. You will need to get planning permission for this choice. You might be wondering whether this is going to be more expensive than a full home move. The good news is that this is always going to work out as a more cost-effective option. 

We hope this helps you see that there are some great ways to make the most out of the space that you have. It’s not always going to be necessary to make an expensive move. You can fall back in love with your current home.

I made a video highlighting my #bulletjournal for I made a video highlighting my #bulletjournal for 2021. All the main pages are done and I have 2 more weeks of January to finish out but I did it! 

The first quote is from the song “Moment” by Victoria Monét. I love the song, listen when you get a chance. 

Goodbye 2020, Hello 2021!

Paul said I created a fire hazard on my #bulletjou Paul said I created a fire hazard on my #bulletjournal “Books read in 2021” page. But it came out better than I thought it would. 

My soft goal for 2021 is 30 books which I’m pretty sure I can make. My hard goal is 45. Once school ends, I’ll have more time to read and make it through the list I’ve built up. Can’t wait!

I always make it a point to read a certain amount I always make it a point to read a certain amount of books each year but the last 2 or so years, I just haven’t read that many. So, I’m writing down books I plan on reading in 2021 and making sure I follow though. 

Anyone else have an amount of books they want to read in 2021? I’ll have a follow up post with the spread for my “books read in 2021”.

However, with thanksgiving giving me a much needed break from work and school, I hopped on to make the last month of the year.

I have to admit that I’m extremely excited to work on my 2021 #bulletjournal  because I’ll be started in a new book and will have plenty of time to figure out how I want the beginning to look. Be sure to lookout for it!

Families in need can drive to Pizza Cottage Pickerington to receive a FREE package of diapers (sizes 1-6, no newborn or pull-ups). The event starts at 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. or until supplies run out.
Don’t judge me: I drove to a parking spot area n Don’t judge me: I drove to a parking spot area near the path so I could avoid walking through our neighborhood. Only because I wanted a change of scenery while I walked today. 

I realized today that walking is great for my mental health. I’ve felt better the past 3 days because I started my day walking,  thinking and listening to music. I feel motivated to get things done.
