Storage cupboard

Hi all, got a question about storage! We've recently moved house - 3 bedrooms, and luckily each room has a built in wardrobe, so storage is pretty good. We've got an extra cupboard in the upstairs hallway, where I'm thinking of keeping bedding and towels. Boyfriend has suggested building in extra cabinets/storage into this cupboard for other things, but we're struggling to think of what we could put in there! So I'm on here for your suggestions; what would you do with an extra cupboard? It's floor-ceiling and you can walk into it, so it's a decent size. I'm expecting my first child at the moment, so obviously suggestions around what could be stored for baby would be good, but we are getting drawers etc. in her room, as well as the built in wardrobe that was mentioned earlier.

Thanks for any suggestions!

Spare duvets/pillows/suitcases (unless you have a loft)

If you are expecting a child it won't be long before you fill it! 🤣 Leave it empty for now and over time you'll find something to do with it!

Anything that doesn’t have a home elsewhere? You sound like you’re actually looking to accumulate things just to fill it.

What I have in mine:
Christmas decorations
Box of cards, wrapping paper and other stationery items
A big stock of toilet rolls, kitchen roll, tissues (scared of running out) Grin
Ironing board, upright hoover
I'd love the space to put in more cupboards for suitcases, shoes and bags.
