20 Ways to Make Storage Stylish

Take an old ladder and repurpose it to be a rustic and vintage storage device. Just lean it up against the wall and store whatever you want on it!
You can also repurpose a window shutter to be a great storage device that looks fantastic! Use it in the kitchen to store utensils or even in the office for a mail organizer!
Get magnetized containers that you can use to store anything from kitchen spices to nuts and bolts. You can make this stylish by getting a great magnetized board to store them on.
Install a reading nook in your home that allows you to keep pillows, blankets, and books all in one spot. It’s absolutely stylish and looks so comfortable!
When possible, get hide away storage. This is storage that you can put away or hide so that it doesn’t look like storage. Anything from hidden panels in the wall to a curtain to cover containers.

If you’re out buying new furniture, then get pieces that double as storage. For example, you can get an ottoman that opens up and has storage inside. How cool!
If you want to go for that nice vintage look with your storage devices, then distress them. Usually you can just take a piece of sandpaper to distress, but it depends on the material.
Spice up your boring storage devices with a new layer of paint! Add a fresh splash of color to a storage piece to make it cooler and more stylish.
Get some nice wall-mounted storage like crates or other small devices that look great and add a fun personality to your home. Just make sure they match the color and theme of your home.
Floating shelves are another great storage idea that look great! They don’t take up much space, leaving the room looking more open and bigger.

If the ceiling in your home is high enough, then install some ceiling storage. This works especially well in the kitchen to hang your pots and pans. How classy!
Try to find some antique pieces that you can use as storage devices. For example, old steamer trunks look awesome and provide you with tons of storage options.
In a home with small square feet, consider vertical storage! You just need a tall storage unit or even a storage pillar. It looks great, doesn’t take up much space, and is a nice addition.
Trays are a great way to add some storage to your home while also dividing things up so they remain organized. I love trays on the kitchen counter because they just look so cozy!
Tiered stands are another great option to add storage to your bathroom or kitchen without taking up a bunch of counter space.

Make your storage look stylish by having it match the colors of the room or the house! If the kitchen is green, then make sure your storage unit is as well!
If your bed is right against the wall then get some around the bed storage. Not only does it allow you to access things from the comfort of your own bed, but it also looks great!
Add a shelf above the door to help give you a bit more storage space. I really like this look in the bathroom because it doesn’t take up any floor or counter space but still makes things look nice and cozy.
Add a cubby system to any room you have to get more storage space. This looks great because the cubbies divide up the items so, even if they’re disorganized, they still look good!
Use some pegboard to get storage around your home. I love pegboard because it’s super versatile and also looks great. You can paint it, too, if you want!
