My home is my castle


My home is my castleWe constantly think that your house is too small. You have too many things, you find it hard to take them all into place. You feel a real claustrophobic. But your house in the first place should be a place where you can relax and unwind.


What can prevent it? The pile of unnecessary furniture, objects scattered and even... "traffic jams. All these factors cause stress, which can prevent you to relax in your home, mind and body.




Well, let's try to make the rubble:





The congestion at the front door


Problem:

The area, located right outside the front door, it is extremely cluttered with shoes, umbrellas, bags, skis and other sports equipment. And seems to get these things not because they are constantly in use, and on the other hand, when they urgently need, they can never find among other stuff.


Solution:

Try all the things that you can hang keys, umbrellas, scarves, bags) to hang on hangers or hooks. As experience shows, hooks and hangers not much happens, so it is always better to add a couple of comfy seats. Children need to hang a special hooks, because of hangers on "adult" height they do not hold out, and besides, having your own hooks, children typically become more organized and begin to watch what they put or hang things. Very convenient if the hall has a table. You can put a couple of trays, decorative boxes or boxes to put them in small things like pins, tickets, trivia. Shoe Cabinet put the box bigger - it will emerge gloves, mittens, belts. All things not directly related to street clothing, such as sports facilities and t.n. from the hallway you should either be removed completely, or put it on the top shelf, where they will not be evident.


Rush hour in the bathroom




Problem:

Will not have time to go to the bathroom, as the door immediately knocks another family member. The shelf in front of the mirror are no longer cargo cans and bottles. In one corner is a pile intended for washing clothes and dirty towels.


Solution:

As in the case of the hallway, add to the bathroom more hooks and hangers to your family members always have at hand a place to hang a towel or clothing. It is very convenient to store items in a hanging "multi-grid. They are especially useful for washcloths, brushes, toys that children use during bathing, and other eternally wet items. Make a few open shelves located at the top of the wall, directly over a bathtub or toilet, they are not so eat up space, closed cabinets, located on the floor or at eye level. Small things are put into containers and put on such a high shelf. You can make a built-in Cabinet under the sink, it is convenient to store cleaners and detergents, as well as brushes and sponges.


And try as much as possible in General to remove from the bathroom. To do this, you can put a locker for cosmetic and other accessories in front of a bathroom, and not inside it. Then your family will not have to knock at the door every time they will need lotion, comb or clean towel. Cosmetics can also be placed in the bathroom and the bedroom, mirror on the dresser. Washing machine-machine, if space allows, you can put in the kitchen.




Many toys




Problem:

It's impossible to walk around the house, so as not to step on a toy. Breakfast is also nowhere as a table covered with papers, paints and clay. It makes no sense to exercise, because your life and thus consists of a continuous bending when picking up toys.


Solution:

For a start, make it a rule every six months to make global sorting toys, ruthlessly getting rid of any broken or outdated. Sorting among other things will save you money, as you will find a lot of forgotten things which the child re-discover. Toys that are still good, but not fit your child's age, give neighborhood children or put in a bag and put away in the pantry waiting for the new additions to your family. If the children are used to draw or do other kinds of art is not in the child, and, for example, in the kitchen, get there a special box or a box for creative accessories that will not take up much space, but in which it is convenient to collect them every time the creative process ends. There is no point each time to carry them in the nursery, so the next day the child again dragged them into the kitchen.


Heavy traffic




Problem:

In the corridors not to miss with their families. Or do you sit and watch TV, and your family members and then pass between you and the TV on the way to another room.


Solution:

Do not place furniture on the way passes from room to room. Ruthlessly get rid of those pieces of furniture that you do not use and which are intended solely for the sake of beauty". Look, maybe you interfere with the free passage of the door. Sometimes the openings are arranged in such a way that you have to close one door to go in another. In addition, the space occupied by the open door, is wasted, since you can't place the furniture. In some of the rooms such as a living room or the kitchen - the door can be removed. So you will visually expand the space and make way. Where doors are required, you can put a sliding or folding door.



The crowd at the kitchen table


Problem:

No matter, it's whether Breakfast, lunch, dinner, or you just want to drink tea at the kitchen table always crush. Family members are forced to squeeze into place, and access to the fridge forever cluttered with chairs and stools. Or someone constantly pass you, making it difficult to prepare food or wash dishes.


Solution:

In small kitchens, the eternal problem of lack of space it is easy to resolve by means of folding the seats, in the hours when no one takes the food thrown to the wall and does not interfere with free passage. The table in this case, you need to choose easier, to be able to pull him to the wall. If this approach you for any reason are not satisfied, corner sofas is also a good way. Especially if they are under the seats there are drawers for storage of various items. The existence of these invisible boxes will save you money on your kitchen cabinets.


Cooking will take place with a minimum of effort and energy, if your workspace is organized on the principle of the triangle "stove-sink-fridge". If possible, place the refrigerator as close as possible to the kitchen door, then the household will not disturb you in the kitchen every time you want to take something to drink or a bite to eat. So, turning not to push the elbow some dish or jar, leave on hand only what you need, the rest hide away or move higher.




And remember: your house is your house and it should be comfortable first and foremost for yourself and your family members. There is no need to take the big room under the living room when guests are in your family is rare, simply because "everyone is doing it". Or do the parent's bedroom more children, because it is appropriate. Throw away conventionality and not be afraid to experiment. Then your house is really cozy and comfortable for each household.
