Need More Storage Space?

16 Genius Storage Ideas You Probably Haven’t Thought Of

Sometimes buying a home on Maui means scaling back on square footage. Especially for those that are new to the island. Here are some awesome ideas to get you get organized and find a “home” for all of your things. Do you see what I did there?

Let’s be serious, there are very few who can actually say their home has enough space for all of their things. In the battle of you vs square footage, you rarely feel like you come out on top. Here are some awesome ideas to get you get organized and find a “home” for all of your things. My favorite one is the pull out cabinets under the stairs.

What a great idea!


Underneath Steps

Don’t let that space underneath your stairs go to waste. Depending on the size available you may even be able to create a small office like the image in the bottom left.

Inside Cabinet Doors

The inside of cabinet doors are hidden which makes them a perfect place for storage. We especially love the idea for the spices below.

Look up and you will be amazed at all of the places you can find to store things. From the garage ceiling to the space above doors, it is important to use every inch without making a room feel cluttered.

Underneath Your Counters

If you have a smaller kitchen you know what it is like to open up a cabinet and have things fall onto you…it’s miserable. Clear up some space by taking advantage of the area underneath your counters.
