WOMAN'S WORLD
Proper Storage Space Provides
For Efficient Housekeeping
By Ertta Haley
^OES picking up your
house
before cleanirg consume more
time than the actual effort to scrub
and polish? If you must say “yes”
to this question, then you're
probably not making proper use
of space for storage.
Adding storage space to your
home does not involve putting in
an extra room, or making a base
ment or attic, or any such major
work. It’s making good, use of
space you already^have, and much
of this can be done with simple
carpentry.
"A place for everything” is be
coming one of the most important
phases of building and homemak
ing. When you have a place for
everything,^ this means that with
everything in place, you have not
only neatness and orderliness, but
with little effort.
When you have to shift things
from crowded drawers and shel
ves constantly or try to put stacks
of things somewhere, out of the
way, it may mean that you are
accumulating too many things.
However, it may also mean that
you simply do not have adequate
storage. facilities for your posses
sions.
Check yourself on some of the
common household p r o bl e m s:
where does luggage go? What hap
pens to extra bedding? Where do
you put your keys? Are extra
dishes in the way? Can you find
pots and pans and other cooking
utensils easily?
If your home does not now.pro
vide easy answers to the above as
well as any others of which you
can think, start solving the prob
lem with proper storage. Many
of the above difficulties can be
answered with very simple filing

and little work; other problems
can be resolved with only slightly
more work.
Use Boilt-Ins
For Storage
Look around your home and see
how much empty, unused wall
space you have. Then look around
at all the things you would like to
put away. Put the two together
and you come up with built-ins.
Cupboards as well as all sorts
of devices can be finstalled into
most of your roomS\at little ex
pense and at great saving to not
only your possessions but to your
disposition as well. Add to this
the great saving in actual house
keeping and you have some idea
what a small investment can do.
But just how does one go about
deciding where and what the built-
ins should be? This must be plan
ned for the uses and needs each
home has, but some illustrations
may offer help.
For example, if linen storage is
your main problem, check the
walls of your bedroom and see if
they’re being fully used. Or, what
about a hall that joins two bed
rooms or is at the entrance of a
bedroom? .
Many of these walls can take
several rows of shallow chests
without crowding the room. If the
room is large-r, deeper chests can
be used. These may be waist high
or even higher depending upon

by wiping with a damp cloth,
and will not fade, streak,
crack or react to the weather.

how much space you need, as well
as what will look right in the
room in relation to its proportions
,and furnishings.
If you have to save space, there
are many ways in which to do it.
For example, do not have knobs on
the chests for the drawers. These
take several inches. Cutouts at
the drawer fronts eliminate knobs
and make them smaller and neat
er. Thus, they can really be
blended into the wall as though
they were actually built in when
the house was constructed..
How to Use Unseen *
Space for Storage
Frequently ybu’11 find that win
dows which do not come all the
way to the floor, and most of them
don't, leave wall space that can
be pressed into storage cases. If
yoy tyave such a space in the bed
room, and the bed or beds are set
against this particular wall, place
the cases right in back of the bed.
Storage cases can be low, but as
long as they come to the* floor and
run all the way across the wall,
there will be much space provided.
Use these for biankets, pillows,
linens or seasonal Hems. In chil
dren’s rooms, these types of cases
are excellent for putting away
toys.
Tops of the cases can be used
for radios, books !and clocks. If
desired, potted plants or interest
ing collections of various hobbies
can be displayed on them.
No place for shoes in the bed
room, or not enough room? If you
have wall space above a heating
vent, convert this Into* a smalt
shoe closet. This can be'done by
slanting boards on which the 1
shoes are placed, with horizontal
molding strips attached to the
boards to act as heel catchers
holding the shoes to the tilted
shelves.
Do you have a kitchen and
breakfast nook built together? It’s
not only smart looking but also
space providing to construct a nar
row counter between the two units.
The counter itself may be used to
hold serving items as well as food.
Underneath, the counter top,
shelves or niches can be constructed
to hold table accessories, appli
ances, telephone, etc.
Wall space opposite the counter
between breakfast nook and kitch
en might also be used for cabinet or
shelf space.
Create Orderliness
In the Kitchen
Cupboards are natural furnishings ,
to the kitchen, but there are still a
great many kitchens with bare wall
space that could be put to excellent
use. Cupboards can and should sur
round all the main working centers
to house all needed tools.
Not only is cupboard space es
sential, but when organized like a
file, it will increase in usefulness.
Cupboards surrounding the range
or cooking area can be shaped to
hold pots and pans of all sizes, so
that you can pick the one you want
without extracting it from a nest of
pans.
Shaped partitions, often made of
plywoqjl, can be used for storing
lids as jvell as shallow pans, trays
and large platters. To be most ef
ficient, make the partitions remov
able so they can be taken out for
easy cleaning, as well as for chang
ing the sizes of the particular
‘‘files” to take care of other pieces.
Drawers near the kitchen sink
can also be made sectional so that
ulehsils like forks and “knives, m;\-
ing spoons, spatulas and pancake
turners are not jumbled together in
the drawer. Slotted holders placed
> in the drawers are excellent for
knives, particularly, because* they
protect the cutting edge of the
knife.
Sliding trays placed in many
deep kitchen drawers automatically
eliminates confusion and at the
same time makes work quicker be- i
pause you can pick out whichever :
piece you want quickly.
The trays in deep drawers can|
also be partitioned to hold smairl
equipment in its own place and thus
cut down on jumbled drawers.
Select Furniture
For Storage Value
While you try to stretch wall
space to cover storage needs, don’t
forget that furniture can help you
in the same way. Much of the new
furniture being made available is
not only decorative, but it also has
• great many storage features.
In selecting an occasional table,
do not just expect the top to be of
use. See that its base is a cabinet
or a shelf or two which can be used
for sewing boxes, magazines or
books.
