It’s always helpful to learn new home organization ideas for small spaces. One of the pros of living in a small house is it can start to look cluttered very quickly. Though it doesn’t sound like a good thing, it is because it forces you to stay organized.

The most important rule for keeping a small space organized is making sure everything has a place. Clutter accumulates when there are places to put things away. Designate a specific place in your home for everything you own.


It’s a good idea to invest in a label maker. Once you find a place for each item, labeling will help you remember where to put things back. Labels ensure the whole family knows where everything belongs.


Find unconventional spots to use for storage in a small home. Utilize ceiling space. Add shelves to bathroom ceilings for extra storage. Use spaces like areas behind doors where you can hang things like coats. Underneath the beds is also a great storage area.


When you have a small space it’s good to get in the habit of putting things away as you use them. While cooking, for example, take out each ingredient when you need it and put it back once you’ve used it.

Organizing small spaces

This may seem time-consuming but you’re actually saving time you would have spent cleaning afterward. Doing it this way will prevent your space from feeling cluttered while you work.


Assigning a place for each item in your home, utilizing unconventional storage opportunities, and putting things away right after you use them will help keep your small space organized.
