Clutter really kills the vibe of any household, and keeping the clutter under control takes a lot of energy. But staying organised doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style. With the right homewares, you can keep things tidy and make your space feel elevated.
Whether you’re short on space, juggling a busy household, or just love the feeling of everything having a place, here’s how to blend form and function with smart, stylish storage.
1. Baskets: The MVP of Organised Living
From toy storage to bathroom towels to rogue remotes—baskets do it all.
- Available in woven, fabric, rope, or metal
- Perfect for open shelving, under benches, or on-the-go grab zones
- Add warmth and texture to any room
Style tip: Use a mix of sizes and materials for an organic, collected feel.
2. Trays & Caddies: Contain the Chaos
Corral your coffee table clutter. Keep your bedside table calm. Trays and caddies are underrated heroes for styling and organising.
- Wooden trays for remotes, candles, and coasters
- Bathroom caddies for skincare and styling tools
- Entryway trays for keys, wallets, and sunglasses
Pro move: Add a decorative item (like a small vase or candle) to keep it feeling intentional, not just functional.
3. Lidded Boxes & Decorative Containers
For the things you don’t want to see—but still need close by.
- Great for storing cords, chargers, paperwork, or sentimental bits
- Stack them on shelves or style them on a console
- Opt for linen-wrapped, woven, or timber boxes to keep it chic
4. Multi-Use Furniture with Hidden Storage
Need to store bigger items? Look for homewares that double as storage:
- Ottomans with lift-up lids
- Benches with storage baskets underneath
- Side tables with drawers or hidden compartments
These are perfect for small spaces where every item needs to earn its keep.
5. Open Shelving Done Right
Yes, it can still be tidy! The trick is to style open shelves with both beauty and practicality.
- Mix closed containers (baskets, boxes) with styled pieces (books, candles, art)
- Stick to a colour palette to avoid visual clutter
- Rotate seasonally or as your storage needs change
Final Thought
Being organised doesn’t mean hiding everything away. With the right homewares, storage becomes part of your styling—helping your home feel calmer, more functional, and 100% you.
