Tips and Tricks for Saving Space in Tiny Homes

When you own a tiny home, you understand that all space is precious. You don’t take any area for granted. If you’re out of creative ways to save space in your tiny home, keep reading to explore a few expert tips and tricks.

Free Up Counter Space

You have limited counter space in a tiny home. So you want to avoid cluttering it and keep it clear for food prep and other uses. One creative way to clear up counter space is to install a curtain rod in the area above the counter to hang baskets and canisters. Place your spices, paper, pens, and other everyday essentials in these baskets.

Suspended Shelving

A tiny home solution you didn’t know you needed? Floating string tables! These innovative tables help clear up floor space and provide an aesthetically pleasing place to set down your nightly reading material.

Reimagine Closet Space

Closets are your best friends in tiny homes, but you need to utilize the closets well to get the most out of the storage space. Set up bins, baskets, drawers, and other containers that work with your lifestyle. You can install built-ins or set up desk space in the closet for work or play. Sometimes saving space means reimagining the area.

Hang Up Lights

Every square inch of your tiny home is precious. Why clutter it with floor lamps or take up space with end-table lights? Hang your lights to create a beautiful ambience and clear that floor or table space. There are plenty of styles to blend in with your aesthetics. You can also purchase lights that change color and control them with an app on your phone. The versatility will serve you well.

Cleverly Placed Shelves

It’s crucial to utilize all space in your tiny home, including the spots you usually don’t think of. One creative and clever site to place shelves is on top of the curtain rod. Obviously, if you don’t have enough room, this won’t work. But if you do, it’s excellent for a few decorative pieces, plants, jewelry, and books.

These clever tips and tricks will help you save space in your tiny home. You may even wonder what to do with all that leftover space! Probably, not, but still.

As wildfires become more frequent and intense across the U.S., the demand for fast, reliable emergency response grows more urgent by the year. Behind every successful wildfire containment effort is a powerful network of moving parts—from fire crews and equipment to mobile command centers, light towers, water tankers, and power units.
