It seems lockdown has got us all in the mood for decluttering and organising our homes. Storage is the ideal solution for creating a calm and organised home and The Painted Furniture Company have a great selection of furniture providing plentiful storage for a whole range of items. 
 
Amberley Low Wardrobes shown in a variety of storage options, from £729.00
 
With only so much room in our homes, it makes sense to make the most of every nook and cranny, and opting for bespoke storage furniture is a great way to do this.  From low wardrobes which fit precisely under the eaves of an attic bedroom, to an extra wide bookcase to make the most of an alcove, The Painted Furniture Company can meet almost any customer request. 

Adam Browne, MD at the company, comments "Having your furniture made to measure allows you to customise pieces to your own unique style and requirements. These designs can include highly efficient storage capabilities, be it concealing office equipment and wiring or including additional storage drawers or shelves. By looking at your own  individual requirements, you can ensure that the piece of furniture fits precisely into your life and does exactly what you need it to. For example, if you have a huge shoe collection, why not ask about including a shoe rack within your wardrobe, or extra storage space underneath your bedframe?"

It also pays to think creatively with storage for example, by choosing furniture that has a dual purpose.  Opt for coffee tables with added drawers, handy seats with concealed internal space, or beds that have the options of including storage drawers.  Adam advises "When it comes to home storage, there is no such thing as too much, so it pays to consider the options carefully when choosing a piece of furniture.  Think about exactly how the piece will be used in daily life, what you plan to store away and how accessible you need the items to be."  
 
Blake Small Sideboard £879.00
 
Furniture for storage may have a practical use but this certainly doesn't mean it can't be stylish too.  The Painted Furniture Company offer a great range of styles to fit any home, with the Blake furniture collection (sideboard shown above) ideal for a modern interior scheme.  With solid American Oak doors and drawers which beautifully show off the grain of the wood, this sideboard provides a style statement, as well as ample amounts of handy storage.  Designed with a recessed plinth, it gives the illusion of calmly floating above the floor, adding a sense of lightness and calm to the room.  The Blake Dining Table below, is another example from this contemporary collection and features a handy side cupboard, ideal for wine storage.

"Whilst there will always be the practical need for storage, we also want our customers to be delighted with their choice of furniture and take pleasure in using it every day.  How you furnish your home is one of the most important choices you will make and one of the biggest investments of both your time and your money. We understand and respect that, in fact we pride ourselves in the fact that we will bend over backwards to make sure that you have the best products to choose from and that you will ultimately be able to enjoy your furniture for years to come." says Adam.

Last but by no means least, when it comes to choosing furniture for whatever your storage needs, it certainly pays in the long run to invest in quality.  Furniture from The Painted Furniture Company is built to last a lifetime and they are proud to be hand-building furniture here in the UK and keeping traditional techniques alive.  "Dovetail joints, rulers, pencils and line drawings – we love going back to basics in our workshop." says Adam. "Traditional techniques mixed with modern machinery results in a premium quality mix of old and new."
