5 Reasons to organise your home

5 Reasons to organise your home

The design experts at Custom Made Furniture share some clever storage tips and explore the reasons why you should take the time to organise your home.

1) Create more space

One of the easiest ways to create more space in your home is by having a good old-fashioned clear-out. You’d be surprised how many drawers and shelves you can free up, simply by getting rid of unwanted items. If you’re forever rearranging your cupboards to try and make everything fit, it could be time to have a good sort through everything you own and prioritise the items that you use on a regular basis.

Our custom storage solutions can create valuable storage in previously unused spaces. If you have an awkward nook, alcove, or space under the stairs, our custom designs can transform it into something much more useful.  

2) Appreciate everything you have

By clearing out any items that no longer serve a purpose or make you happy, you’ll gain a newfound appreciation of everything you have. By really thinking carefully about the things you own, you’ll be able to surround yourself with items that bring you happiness and make your life easier. 

Not only that, but with all the space you manage to clear you’ll be able to proudly display your previously forgotten keepsakes and other treasured items. We can help by creating beautiful bespoke shelving that enhances your space, while being tailored to accommodate any statement pieces you might want to display.

3) Reduce stress

Having lots of clutter around can make you feel disorganised and stressed. It’s frustrating not being able to find things when you need them and disheartening to keep moving piles of stuff from one area of your home to another. By only keeping the items that matter and finding a sensible place to store them, you’ll no longer have to worry about tripping over clutter or wasting time looking for something you need. 

A fitted wardrobe will take up less space in your bedroom than a freestanding one, while also making use of awkward nooks and alcoves. Our bespoke wardrobe solutions can be made with either hinged or sliding doors, in a wide variety of finishes to suit all tastes. By creating a larger, more functional storage space in your bedroom, you can limit the amount of clutter you keep out on show. This will help to create a tranquil bedroom environment, which could improve sleep and lower your stress levels.

4) Give unwanted items a good home

One of the joys of decluttering is donating your unwanted items to charity shops or passing them on to loved ones. There’s no sense in keeping things you don’t need, and it can be tremendously satisfying to know that your items are going to a new home where they will be truly appreciated. 

5) Enjoy a more functional, practical home

By knowing exactly what you have and where it lives, you’ll never have to stress over finding things again. We believe in creating beautiful but practical spaces that enhance your home, while making your life easier. 

As it seems likely that working from home will continue for the foreseeable future, creating a well organised and attractive workspace could become a priority. We can help you design a sleek, stylish home office that’s perfectly tailored to fit your space.
