Simple Tips for Furnishing Small Spaces














Everyone deserves the home of their dreams, no matter how big or small their space. Even if you live in a studio or a one-bedroom apartment, with the right home furnishings, you can create a space that is just as stylish and inviting as a larger home. At Jerusalem Furniture, we have a diverse collection of products, with furniture selections suitable for homes of every shape and size. With our quality furniture collection and a few simple tips, you will be able to make a big statement in any size home.
Think Vertically
When furnishing a smaller room, try to build upward, not outward. In other words, look for furniture pieces that are tall and thin, as opposed to short and wide. This rule is particularly useful to apply in your bedroom, where it can often be difficult to find enough space for all your personal belongings. Instead of purchasing a dresser, you can purchase one of our bedroom chests instead. A bedroom chest delivers virtually the same amount of storage as a dresser, but it features a slimmer design. Choosing a bedroom chest over a dresser will help you to conserve some much-needed space.  
Take Furniture Size into Consideration
Even if it is possible to squeeze a large piece of furniture into a room, that doesn’t necessarily mean you should. Always make sure your furniture has room to breathe and that you leave enough space for people to easily walk in and out of the room. Choosing appropriately sized furniture is especially crucial in your dining room, since guests will need room to walk around your table and slide in and out of their chairs. Round dining tables are a great option for smaller dining rooms, as their circular design eliminates wasted space. We even have drop-leaf dining tables that you can close or expand as necessary.
Choose Multipurpose Furniture Pieces
When trying to conserve space, multipurpose furniture is extremely beneficial. Why take up room with two furniture pieces when you can achieve just as much with one? For example, consider one of our living room storage benches or storage ottomans. These versatile furniture pieces provide seating as well as well as discrete storage, helping you to keep your living room neat and tidy.
