Got
Stuff? Oh, do we have Stuff!! Well here are some Storage Options
One of the by-products
of our consumer-based society is that we all accumulate "stuff,"
from sports equipment and garden tools to holiday decorations, craft
and hobby gear, and clothing we seldom wear. Some of us (hint hint
to my wife DeDe) gather so much stuff that it commandeers our
closets, attics and garages and then overflows to outdoor sheds and
rented storage units. Over time, we become increasingly
disorganized, stressed and inconvenienced.
Remodeling contractors,
along with design professionals and product manufacturers, recognize
that homeowners are looking for some relief to their storage woes.
To that end, a variety of products and organizational ideas have
developed for every nook and cranny of the house to add capacity and
organization.
In a clothes closet,
for example, the system includes open shelves, door and drawer
cabinets, tilted shoe and sweater racks, hanger rods, hooks, and
laundry hampers. These parts can be assembled and arranged according
to a homeowner's particular needs. As those needs change -- as
children grow older, for example -- the pieces can be moved,
replaced, or supplemented.
In the kitchen and
laundry room, cabinet and appliance manufacturers offer numerous
options to increase storage capacity and organization. In addition
to handy drop-down drawers and roll-out shelves, many cabinet
companies provide in-drawer organizers, dedicated trash and
recycling bins, and adjustable shelving to suit a variety of needs.
In the laundry room, pedestal drawers provide extra storage while
raising the height of the washer and dryer, making them easier to
use as well.
Today's modular storage
systems are available in a wide variety of styles and prices, from
luxurious, all-wood components that enhance any master suite to
ventilated coated wire sections that make sense for kids rooms and
utility areas. Even if there is enough land and budget to add square
footage to an existing house, it only makes sense to make every inch
-- in old rooms as well as new -- as space-efficient as
possible.
Save the Date(s).
