Just over six years ago, my husband and I bought our first home - a small Victorian terrace with lots of character, but not a lot of storage space. And because we assumed that it was the proper thing to do, we immediately bought ourselves a wardrobe for our small bedroom. Within weeks, though, we began to regret our decision… and we got rid of it.
Yes, for those wanting to follow in the footsteps of people with consistently tidy clothes, it’s easy to assume that you need a wardrobe to keep things organised - whether that’s a freestanding wardrobe or bespoke built-ins. But I’m proof that you don’t have to follow the norm when it comes to bedroom storage, and that it’s sometimes worth getting creative when you’re a small home dweller.
