We love the clever (and beautiful!) ways these readers have created storage for everyday items.

Making Space

Tidy solution

Stacy and Jacques van Zyl of Brackenfell was keen to create an inviting – and affordable – entrance leading from the front door into their open-plan living and dining area. Jacques used pallets to build a structure with a frame, which he mounted on the wall next to the front door to define the space.

“Storage is limited in our home and this area now serves as a place to hang our jackets, hats, scarves, and bags – and the kist works as both storage and seating,” says Stacy.

A playful touch

A guest bedroom in Dirk and Sindi Jooste’s Durbanville home doubles as a playroom for their kids – Chrisjan (5), Ruan (3) and Amelie (1). To keep the space neat, they rely on a large built-in melamine cupboard. It’s practical with its combination of open shelves for pretty displays and closed doors behind which the kids can easily pack away their toys.
