- Make it inviting.
White walls, shelving,
and flooring make a
small space feel bright
and open. Adding
accessories in a unified
color scheme (like
the pastels here) and
a few carefully chosen
accents (we like gold)
give it eye appeal.
2. Have a seat.
It makes sense to have
a comfy place to sit
while you put on your
shoes. Cross base

Champagne rug, by

3. Flip and fold.
Raise the leaf of a wall-
mounted table to make
a flat surface for fold-
ing; lower it for more
changing-room space.

table, $39, and Stave

DRESS UP YOUR CLOSET
When you’re organizing your closet, look for storage
solutions that are stylish and practical—because when you
have a closet that’s as considered as the rest of the
rooms in your home, you’re more likely to find serenity
in the morning. (And maybe that missing blouse, too.)
