Guide Review - A Household Storage Idea Book
The book includes ideas for household storage including...
Storage Basics. The basic principles of storage are covered including advice on remodeling storage, rearranging it, or when you need to add more household storage.
Entryway Storage. Learn how to create an inviting entryway as well as a functional place for the entrances and exits of the family, friends, and guests.
Kitchen Storage. This book covers food storage, storing kitchen gear, and even choosing what gear we need in a kitchen.
Living Spaces. Whether you need help with an entertainment center, freestanding storage, or built-in storage advice, this section has it.
Work Space Storage How do you make room for a home office? What kind of a desk does your home office require?
Bedrooms and Closets The main focus of this section relates to storing and organizing clothing. You'll also get ideas for kid's room storage and using the bed as a household storage solution.
Bathroom Storage The bathroom may be a funcitonal area of the house, but try squeezing all of its contents into one medicine cabinet and an under the counter sink. Find out what storage areas are available to use, and where to put all of those toiletries, linens, and medicine.
This book has great ideas, fabulous photographs, and thorough coverage of most of the household areas. The book is not a how-to manual to create storage, but a fabulous idea book to help you figure out what you need and how to get it.
