Don't forget about the wasted space under your stairs. Why, yes, it makes perfect sense to turn that space into drawers!

So, friends, I hope your creative juices are flowing now. Look around your house and think outside the box. Evaluate your empty space and repurpose it to make your life easier and less cluttered.
