A circular shape creates the illusion of more space and you only have a center leg to worry about and can fit more people or pillows for dining, lounging or playing games. If you choose a coffee table that has a cubby or shelves, so much the better for added spots to stuff magazines or remotes.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14385\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14385 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Images1ALT.jpg\" alt=\"Source: Home Design Ideas, Cottage and Bungalow, Table for Glass\" width=\"600\" height=\"490\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.homedesignideas.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/10-modern-glass-coffee-tables-for-your-living-room-design-ideas-2.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Home Design Ideas<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.cottageandbungalow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/round-coffee-table.png\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Cottage and Bungalow<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tableforglasses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/round-coffee-table-base-ideas-round-coffee-table-base-ideas-2.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Table for Glass<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Think Vertical<\/h4>\n<p>In closets, above your doors, above the kitchen cabinets, much wasted space can be captured to add shelves or hooks. Open shelves are trendy and chic and floor to ceiling bookshelves make a room feel majestic, plus lots of space for books and other collections. If you need a room divider to add some privacy, here is another opportunity to use a tall bookcase to get both storage and visually separate a room. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/custom-drapery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Curtains or drapery panels hung all the way from the ceiling to the floor is another genius trick to add height.<\/a> Even if you don&#8217;t have a window, an interesting textile or pattern simulating an opening behind the fabric is an easy magic design idea. Anytime you can draw the eye upward, a more expansive space is perceived.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14385\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14385 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Images2ALT.jpg\" alt=\"Source: Cubtab, Pinterest, Tiny House Swoon, Diary of Ane\" width=\"600\" height=\"490\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/cubtab.com\/daut\/as\/f\/l\/living-tiny-nicoles-bathhouse-home-tour-and-then-we-saved_inside-small-houses_home-decor_gothic-home-decor-theater-country-target-fleur-de-lis-cheap-decorators-rugs-owl-wholesale.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Cubtab<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com\/originals\/5c\/87\/37\/5c87371970317a71db22bab55fb4837b.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Pinterest<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/tinyhouseswoon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/jenn-tiny-house-8.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Tiny House Swoon<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.diaryofane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Beautiful-stylish-open-bookcase-room-divider-for-stylish-living-room-divider-options.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Diary of Ane<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Think Double<\/h4>\n<p>If you can double up on duties, so much the better.

Do you have a stairway to tuck a slim desk into for you or the kids? How about a laundry room with a tiny bathroom or a laundry\/office combo? You do have to be creative in finding the right small furnishings that will give you double duty.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14385\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14385 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Images3ALT.jpg\" alt=\"Source: Pinterest, Gstatic, LuxHome\" width=\"600\" height=\"490\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com\/736x\/78\/4a\/86\/784a868ac0744f99a77b2265f96b1ea4.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Pinterest<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com\/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcReyoiVJvpNm9ecx8x-SMaXy5XQtxw7AtJsXs9t44AuvfV4SGrDqw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Gstatic<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/luxhome.ge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Washing-Machine-Unit.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">LuxHome<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Think Walls<\/h4>\n<p>Trash the nightstands and any extra side tables that just scream clutter traps. Instead of using table lamps, mount lights on the walls. Design with sconces and install a small bedside shelf for your electronics and other gadgets and your bedroom will be more luxurious. Use as much wall space as you can for interesting shelving for storage instead of bulky furniture. Tack up mirrors on the wall to make a room seem bigger. The reflection from mirrors also adds a brightness and don&#8217;t neglect other choices for mirrored surfaces on consoles or small bookshelves.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14385\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14385 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Images4ALT.jpg\" alt=\"Source: CubTab, Wegor Racing, Pinterest, AAA\" width=\"600\" height=\"490\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/cubtab.com\/daut\/as\/f\/w\/white-stone-studios-modern-micro-apartments-in-downtown-phoenix-tiny-house-benjamin-hall-design-arizona-bedroom-and-living_inside-small-houses_home-decor_christmas-home-decor-catalog-decorators-coupon.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">CubTab<\/a>, Wego Racing, <a href=\"https:\/\/s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com\/736x\/6a\/f9\/23\/6af9236c754c4cc4f7ede94591ed3dac.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Pinterest<\/a>, Solesirius<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Think Big<\/h4>\n<p>Using a few large scale pieces of furniture is a wise choice even if it seems counterintuitive.

Resist the urge to display everything which is a good mantra for all places-big or small. For those of us who live little, we don&#8217;t have any choice but to display only the precious and the most poignant objects of our lives. Remember the 90\/90 rule. If you haven&#8217;t used something in the last 90 days and you don&#8217;t think you will in another 90 days, maybe it is time to be rid of it. Of course, common sense always rules as we do have seasonal choices and needs, but just keep this rule in the back of your mind as you try to de-clutter. Believe me, I know how hard this is, as I love all my collections and all of my &#8220;stuff&#8221; that make a house a home.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14385\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14385 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Image7.jpg\" alt=\"Source: Resolve40\" width=\"600\" height=\"490\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Resolve40<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If you are living large or living small, live fresh!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14385\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14385\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14385 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/End3.jpg\" alt=\"Source: Livinator\" width=\"600\" height=\"490\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/livinator.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/roomed-beach-house-6.jpg\" rel=\"mfp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Livinator<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h6><em>Featured Image: <a href=\"https:\/\/images.traditionalhome.mdpcdn.com\/sites\/traditionalhome.com\/files\/styles\/facebook_og_image\/public\/slide\/img_atlantashowhouselg_5.jpg?itok=k1r2Hnif\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Traditional Home<\/a><\/em><\/h6>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In our downsizing world, who doesn&#8217;t need a few tips to maximize space to allow for a sleeker home look.
