Easy Organizational Hacks For The Living Room

Keep your living room looking fresh and fabulous with these organizational hacks. We have compiled the top 7 easy ways to organize your living room in Farmington Hills MI. Try them out and see if they are the changes you need to keep a clean healthy home.

1. There should be a basket or cupboard to hold the items you find yourself using in your living room. If you often snuggle up on the couch to read a good book, keep a basket of your current reads close by. If you have little ones in your home still, keep a cupboard of age appropriate toys low and easily accessible. A cupboard is great for toys so they can easily be thrown in there. If you often host family game night, keep a chest for board games in the room so you can grab them with ease.

Whatever you end up doing in that room should be kept in that room. It's all about easy access.

2. Have a basket or box for blanket throws next to your sofa. Nobody likes to be chilly on the sofa!

3. Purchase multi purposeful furniture - benches with a bottom, coffee tables with a shelf underneath, etc. Using multi purposeful furniture saves space and can actually be quite stylish! Follow hack number one when filling up these items.

4. Place a stylish tray on your coffee table for loose items. Let’s face it, you will always have little pieces of clutter here and there. That’s why you need a designated place to put those loose items. Keys, a good book, pens, coasters, loose papers, etc.

5. If you are a living room snacker, you need a pile of coasters. Use an accent color to bring a little style to your living room. Keep them stacked on your coffee table for when you are ready to wind down with a nice drink at the end of the day.

6. Keep an air freshener or deodorizer to freshen up a room before guests come in. Consider making your own and filling a spray bottle full. A quick recipe is 3 Cups water, 1 1/2 Tablespoons Baking Soda, and a few drops of essential oils (lemon or peppermint work great!). Mix it all together and spray away.

7. When in doubt, take it out. The less stuff you have in your living room, the less you have to clean up. That's the most simple rule you can follow to keep things looking great in your home!
