If you're short of wardrobe space, use your clothes as decorations in their own right. Purchase a few attractive hangers (large, wooden types suit most decor), and hang from a shelf or attractive hook. Not only will they be a visual in the room, they're also easily accessible.

This works well in children's rooms and is especially handy when it's time to get dressed in the morning.

Always buying new spices because you can't find the one you need? We all have 10 jars of garam masala, don't worry. But these magnetic jars are a neat storage solution. Arrange them on the fridge for a decorative way to make sure you can always find the spices you need.

Just don't forget to label them – cinnamon and chilli look mighty similar but are very different on a cappuccino.

Under the stairs doesn't have to mean a dark cupboard full of everything you don't want to deal with. Instead, make it into a storage feature of its own, with visible book shelves and neat drawers. You could even create a little reading nook if you take out a shelf or two.

Nowhere to keep your yoga mat? Why not turn it and your gym equipment into something of a wall feature, using a peg board.

Alternatively, hang your mat to the wall. This works especially well if you have a funky patterned one, but even if it's just a block colour it'll still brighten up a white wall and exposing it to the light and air will even keep your mat cleaner.

This is a great recycling idea for storing lots of colouring pens and pencils together. Carefully cut a plastic drinks bottle in half and decorate. Perfect for storing crayons and similar useful items, the easy-to-access plastic pots mean you can see the contents easily.

The summer holidays are over and you've got a lot of seasonal clothing that you won't need until next year, so free up some wardrobe space by keeping them in your suitcase.

By vacuum-packing them first you can squeeze more garments in and easily take them out when you need to use the bag.

Forever looking for the other earring? Try using polystyrene to keep them both together, great for brooches and pins too. If you're feeling crafty you can always upcycle an offcut of fabric to make it look a little more polished.

Ziplock bags are the ultimate storage hack tool; they are cheap and so very practical. You can use them for almost anything small that needs to be kept together like spare buttons, screws or, as in this case, colouring pencils.

There’s nothing worse than when you’re in a rush and you can only find one of your matching earrings. This ingenious idea from PureWow allows you to keep your jewellery together.

Threading your earrings through button holes also makes a decorative feature out of a clever storage solution.

Food presenter Alton Brown was fed up of frantically shaking bottles to try and get the sauce to come out. His idea is to cut the lid off an egg box and place it on a shelf in your fridge door.

Now you can store your condiments upside down so they’re ready to go when you need a squeeze. 

When setting aside a cupboard for your all pans, you can often find that the lids take up a whole other cabinet on their own. We suggest attaching stick-on hooks to the inside of kitchen cupboard doors.

If you slot the pan lids between these hooks they will stay put without costing precious shelf space.

How's this trendy for an outdoor storage trick using just the head of an old garden rake? The bent spokes become ordered hooks to hang your garden shears, spades and scissors while adding a touch of vintage style to your outdoor area.
