Is your home low on square footage? Don't sweat it — a small space is an excellent opportunity to get smart with organizing.

Do you have a small space in your home that you are not sure what to do with? Or is your restricted apartment forcing you to get creative with your furniture arrangements? Make your smaller living space fit your needs with clever solutions that will streamline your life and maximize your space.

1. Smart Paint Choices

Choosing the perfect paint color for your small space can give the impression of more space. Neutral paint colors such as white, cream and light gray are excellent choices, and give off a clean and streamlined look that makes the room feel much brighter and more spacious.

2. Savvy Storage

Tight spaces do not often come with tons of storage. But by incorporating creative and flexible storage solutions, you can keep clutter out of sight and keep everything you need handy.

* The kitchen is a great place to implement clever storage solutions:

* Create an adjustable cooking area with roll-away islands and pantries

* Hang coffee cups or wine glasses beneath your cupboards

Fasten holders to the backs of cabinet doors to keep foil and cleaning supplies conveniently out of sight

3. Multitasking Furniture

When you have limited floor space, it is vital to make your furniture work double duty. Choose pieces that have hidden storage and multiple purposes or furniture that you can compact and store when not in use.

If you can not fit a dresser in your bedroom, try using drawers or totes under the bed for clothing and extra linens. An ottoman can easily transition from a seat to a footrest or side table. Add function to your entryway by employing a bench with storage inside to hide extra shoes, gloves and scarves.

Limited square footage does not mean you have to sacrifice function and style.  With creative thinking, you can go from a cluttered, cramped mess to an organized and inviting space with room for all.
