However, more and more products are being designed in a way that will help save us space at home. I’ve searched around and found 12 items that are absolutely great for saving us space!
1. Strainer meets cutting board
This is definitely something I need in my life! This ingenious invention allows you to chop up your vegetables, fruits, lettuce and anything else without damaging your counter top, then in one easy step it becomes a strainer so you can wash your food straight away and then transfer it straight to your plate or bowl. Save some space in your cupboard with this 2-in-1 strainer board. It takes up hardly any room and its flat design makes storage easy!
2. Speaker Light Bulb
This cool looking speaker doubles up as a light bulb. Save space in any room of your house and benefit from this speaker that will generate sound to the entire room. It’d make a great Christmas present or just treat yourself.
3. All in one kitchen doohickey
A lemon juicer, a spice grater, an egg masher, a cheese greater, a lid opener, an egg yolk separator, a measuring cup and a funnel all in a wine shaped bottle. This quirky design has compacted 8 kitchen tools into one easy to store product.
4. Wall mounted ironing board
This ironing board is absolutely ideal if you haven’t got a lot of space or storage space in your bedroom or bathroom. Not only is it an ironing board but it’s a cupboard too so you’re given even more room and it will also blend in perfectly with its mirror door.
5. Magnetic ironing mat
This simple idea is so effective and will not only save you space but time too! Put this mat on top of your washer or dryer in your laundry room and you can iron your clothes as soon as they’re ready. With this product there’s no need for an ironing board, this mat is as effective, much smaller and easy to move and store!
6. Roll up dish drying rack
This product will not only help you save space but it can create it too! Extend your drying space with this convenient drying rack and then once you’re done just simply roll it up and put it away. The roll up feature means you can easily store it anywhere and just take it out when you need it.
7. Space Saving Hangers
If, like me, you have an ever expanding range of clothing but a wardrobe that stays the same size these space saving hangers will allow to you fit much more into your wardrobe. No more doubling up clothes on one hanger or packing your wardrobe so full you can’t find anything.
8. Measuring cup
This product is so simple but it is extremely useful when cooking. I always struggle with teaspoon and tablespoon measurements. This small and convenient size cup will help save you time in the kitchen and won’t take up space either.
9. Vertical free standing shoe rack
This modern-style shoe rack is perfect for any area of the home: bedroom, living room, inside the front or back door. The vertical design means it takes up much less room than most other standard shoe racks and works perfectly for all styles of shoe. I personally love the overall design too!
10. Fold-away treadmill
That’s right! There is such a thing as a foldaway treadmill. This treadmill is absolutely ideal for anyone starting off creating an at home gym or workout space. With its clever design you can take it out when you need it and when you’re done you can just pack it away. Storing it is simple because of its compact shape. No need to section of part of your room or have it sitting in a corner or in your garage ‘out of the way’. Buy one and start working out at home today!
11. Library Chair
This great-looking chair doubles up as a book shelf storage space. The creative design means there’s no more need for those massive book shelves, you won’t have books scattered all around the house or in drawers and cupboards, where they shouldn’t be. This reading station will save you space in your house, help you manage your books and also give you a place to read them.
12. The Auto-Expanding/Contracting Hose
This smart invention would make a great gift for your dad! It’s designed in such a way that when you turn the water on, it expands in length and width, then when you shut the water off it will contract in size. Not only will this save you time as you won’t have to reel your hose out and in but it will also save you space when storing. It’s compact enough to place on a shelf or in a cupboard or you could just hang it up on your wall.
