Is your bulky furniture monopolizing your space?
Are you like me and have rearranged your furniture in every way imaginable just wondering how to make the most out of your small space?
If this is you, please know you’re not alone. I love over-sized furniture. Sinking into those large super-stuffed cushions after a long day is one of my favorite things. However, sometimes it’s not feasible to have such large furniture in a small space.
So, I’ve compromised.
I kept my large sofa and king size bed and opted for smaller, yet functional, accent pieces.
You can add storage and functionality too with 9 of my favorite DIY furniture projects to make the most of your small space.
