Use mounted shelves
For a great space-saver, hang shelves on your walls, rather than buying a cumbersome bookshelf. This method allows you to shelve all the things you’d normally shelve while saving valuable square footage.
Bonus: with a stylish option, like IKEA’s Lack ($8 per shelf), it can also make your room look a thousand times better. Oh, and while you’re at it, mount your TV, too. You’ll save extra space that would otherwise be used on an entertainment center.
