Our spare room (box room really), is unfortunately an absolute tip, it's a dumping ground.
There's no bed in there and I don't really want to have a guest room, because TBH I don't want guests. DD has bunk beds so she can have a friend over.
So, I've decided that as it's essentially a store room, I'm going to make it into a proper functional store room and the free up some space and declutter other rooms. I'd like to move the ironing stuff in there ideally.
The basic idea is to go to Ikea tomorrow to buy some cheap but hopefully sturdy shelf units to go down one wall, there's aleady a bookcase in there from it's previous life as a study (pre dd), and a desk with the printer on. I'm hoping to achieve a useful store room, which is tidy enough so that we can actually find things easily and I can get around to vac and dust properly.
I've day dreamed about a shelf to keep vases on when not in use :)
Has anyone else done this? Any ideas
