One of the challenges in any space is finding adequate storage. Here are some storage space secrets from savvy small apartment owners that will definitely come in handy no matter the size of your home.

In the bedroom

Use a platform bed. 

Elevate your bed for a couple of feet and take advantage of the space underneath. If updating the bed is not an option, consider purchasing some containers for your stuff and store under your bed. [caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="564"] Photo source[/caption]  

Look for multi-purpose headboard 

Look for headboard with built-in shelves or hidden storage. It can also serve as your 'bedside' table to store items you need by your bed. [caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="564"] Photo source[/caption]    

In the living room
