Mistake #5: Forgetting About the Nature of Glass-front Cabinets and Furniture
It’s all too easy to forget that glass-front storage gives visitors a direct view inside each corner of a cabinet! Our clients often stuff these spaces with the good intention of maximizing their storage area while forgetting that everyone can still see how cluttered it is. To avoid this, keep these spaces simple with only a few of the most necessary items.
Mistake #6: Not Having a System for Bills, Mail, and Important Documents
Lacking a system like this can lead to missed payments or losing important paperwork. Our solution is to create a filing system for all of your bills and documents! A system like this could include:
- Throwing away junk mail immediately
- Filing bills and important documents in designated folders
- Placing reminder notes for things that need to be addressed
Mistake #7: Too Much Stuff Where Feet Should Be
You want your entryway to be functional, but if it’s cluttered with stuff this will make walking difficult. The solution? Only keep the necessary items in your hallways, such as a coat rack and maybe a small tray for keys and mail. Use storage solutions like hooks or baskets to contain any other necessary items, such as shoes or umbrellas.
