1. A set of sturdystackable stools so you and the rest of your coven don't have to squeeze onto your tiny couch and two dining chairs when it's your turn to host witches' night. This *genius* design transforms four chairs into a compact, functional side table — saving major space in your studio. Plus, the real wood looks *much* nicer than those plastic folding chairs. 

Amazon

BTW — they come fully assembled! 

Promising review: "These stackable stools are perfect for my tiny home! I love their minimalist design and how versatile they are — I use them as nightstands, side tables, and extra seating when needed. They’re sturdy, functional, and blend beautifully with my space. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for stylish, space-saving furniture." —Renato Burati

Get it from Amazon for $161.49+ (available in four colors and two styles). 

2. A bamboo pantry if you'd like to elegantly hide away your overflowing dishes and other kitchen essentials that simply do not fit in your cabinets (and oh, how you've tried). The spacious shelves use an invisibility charm (aka semi-opaque, fluted glass) to slightly blur the clutter inside. Now you won't have to use your cat-like reflexes to catch a falling cup every time you open your overstuffed cabinet.

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Exactly as pictured. It looks nice and high quality. Assembly was pretty easy, and the needed tools were included. Very well and carefully packaged, it arrived in perfect condition. I love the size, design, and functionality. I got it to store glasses by my water cooler, and it’s perfect with the adjustable shelf. Overall — love it!" —Pamela H.

Get it from Amazon for $83.99+ (available in six styles). 

3. A floating bookshelfthat makes it look like you cast a "Wingardium Levi-O-sa" spell (not "levios-A")  so *poof* your books levitate beneath your shelf! Though it's really stretchy bands holding them up, it's still an ~enchanting~ design that doubles the amount of space you can use.

www.amazon.com

Psst — the elastic bands work with paperback AND hardcover books. 

Promising review: "I love these shelves. We have limited shelf space, so these are perfect. The installation was easy; it took only about 20–30 minutes. The shelves are very sturdy and well-designed. I like that they are compact, but you can fit so many books underneath, so they don't take up much space on the wall. Due to a lack of space, we got rid of many of our books, but we will be able to start collecting again, thanks to these. If you are on the fence about whether or not to buy these, don't hesitate, you won't regret it." —Tiffani

Get a two-pack from Amazon for $32.99 (also available in a dark brown stain available in two 

4. A toy hammock in a gorgeous macrame design that'll have all the stuffies currently taking up half your bed lounging in style. It's made of a thick, sturdy cord that can hold up to 50 (!) stuffed animals at once and can be arranged three different ways. *And* it includes LED star lights, so you'll have a perfectly cozy, clutter-free spot to display your ~extensive~ Squishmallows collection — which is perfect, because these Jellycats are looking real cute...

Amazon, www.amazon.com

The kit includes LED star lights, star wall decals, and a setup kit complete with three hooks and anchors. Also, the hammock measures about 56"x42"!

Promising review: "SO cute, SO high quality. My partner and I own a lot of stuffed animals. They were taking over the entire house. Stuffies EVERYWHERE! I was not expecting this to be so beautiful and sturdy in person, and I couldn’t be happier! I love that it came with a string light and star stickers, too. Absolutely precious. I don’t have kids, but I’m a kid at heart, and this was everything I could hope for! It saves us so much room, and it looks so nice! It’s high-quality, thick material. I love that it comes in my favorite shade of gray, and it holds a stupendous amount of plushies with no issues." —Skye

Get it from Amazon for$36.95 (available in five colors).

5. An accent chair with a footrest that slides out and doubles as a storage ottoman (yuppp!) because when you've got a small apartment to work with, each piece of furniture has to pull its weight. Not only is it beautiful *and* functional, but reviewers say it's comfortable too (which is pretty much sorcery in the world of decorative chairs). 

Amazon

Promising review: "Just when I thought my reading nook couldn't get any cozier, this chair walked into my life. It's like sitting on a cloud with its plush upholstery, and perfect for snuggling into with a good book. It also comes with a storage ottoman — ideal for hiding away my reading clutter. It's modern, stylish, and fits beautifully in any room. Plus, the cream color adds a touch of elegance. A true gem for anyone looking to enhance their living space with comfort and style!" —none ya

Get it from Amazon for $247.99+ (available in three colors, two materials, and as a set of two). 

6. A panel of clutter-hiding booksthat'll fit seamlessly around the ugly power strip and tangle of wires that's clashing with your carefully curated home decor. Unlike others, this one's made of *real* up-cycled books — so it'll blend seamlessly with your favorite reads (or stand alone!) and doesn't have that obvious plastic shine. If you thought disappearing bunnies were impressive, watch how eyesores just ✨ vanish ✨ behind this elegant design.

Covogoods / Etsy

Promising review: "I love our fake books! I don’t like a lot of stuff out and having the router and everything else on my counter was frustrating me. I’m so glad I ordered this, because now my kitchen counter looks so much neater!" —Nicole Marko Polo

Get it from Covogoods on Amazon Handmade for $29+ (available in various lengths and your choice of colors).

7. A lift-top coffee table so everyone who enters your living room thinks you're sooo put together when really there are piles of unopened scrolls, divination tools, and... ooh, some loose batteries lurking beneath the surface. It's also perfect if you don't have the space for a desk or side table, since the top can be adjusted (at different heights!) for all your WFH, snacking, or enchanting needs. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This is a unique table. It's perfect for my needs. I draw a lot. I can draw without leaning over. Then I can put the papers inside the table and all is clean and clear. It opens so smoothly that I don't have to remove the plant or other decorations to open and close it. I do remove drinks just to be safe. I should have bought it a long time ago." —CB

Get it from Amazon for $105.99.

8. Or, an adjustable side table if you're living true shoebox-style and can only spare a few feet for desk space. The nifty design inclines to hold up your laptop, drawing pad, or spellbook *and* can hide them all away when you're done. Plus, it has wheels (!!) so you can comfortably study the ancient texts of alchemy from anywhere in your house.

Amazon

Promising review: "Easy to assemble — quicker with two people, but this 79-year-old woman did it by herself! Easy to roll around and tilted top makes a wonderful book stand while reading, using a laptop or tablet. Sturdy and nice storage." —Judith Thomas

Get it from Amazon for $119.99+ (available in four colors, two sizes, and two styles). 

9. A pack of space-saving hangers because the clothes spilling out of your closet are really defeating the purpose of shoving everything in there to make the messes magically disappear. These organizers can hold up to five pieces of clothing each and have rotating hooks for easy access, and they'll help get things in order and free up space so you can keep hiding things in the void in peace. 

Amazon

Promising review: "I was expecting these to create space, but I am blown away by how easy they were to use and how much they opened things up. My closet went from packed to bursting, and I was not able to even remove items to wear, let alone see what they were aside from a glimpse at a sleeve, to having room to add even more items and being able to see what each item is. They: - are easy to use -created 30% more space -don't have to be opened back up to remove items." —M. Stokely

Get a pack of ten from Amazon for$22.90 (available in five colors and in a pack of 20).

And if you've got bulkier items taking up space in your closet, these vacuum storage bags can help shrink 'em down!

10. A rectangular lazy Susan that'll help reduce the clutter in your fridge and make accessing your essentials easier (so no more knocking over those potion bottles that are always in the way to reach the milk that's wayyy in the back 🙄). Reviewers say it's sturdy enough to hold their gallons and can fit *so* much more than a typical round turntable (basically, it's winning at the lazy Susan competition that I was unaware existed). 

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Check out a TikTok of the rectangular lazy Susan in action. 

Promising review: "Wow! I love this turntable organizer! I can fit so many items on it, and because of that, I now have so much more space on the door shelves. With this organizer, I will have easy access to all of those extra items that just don't have their own space. Now they do have a place to go! I would highly recommend this product to everyone who wants to feel more organized and doesn't want to lose items in their fridge." —Amazon Customer 

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in two sizes and as a two-pack)

11. A portable game board storage case if you understand that game nights are the peak hangout activity (and take it very seriously, thank you very much), but your growing collection is starting to take over every shelf in your home. This'll keep all the pieces organized and separated without the bulkiness of boxes, so you can hide everything away in the closet again, and it's also great if you have lots of craft supplies or puzzles!

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "We loved these containers and have now bought 20 to hold our entire game closet! We have been able to fit several games in some. Easy to store and easy for my kids to find and then put away when finished. Good quality, haven't had any problems with durability yet, and we play a LOT of games." —bradfieldfamily

Get a pack of 10 from Amazon for $49.99 (also available in a pack of four).

12. A wooden shoe bench for anyone who's committed to a strict "no shoes inside" policy but is getting real tired of tripping over the hazardous pile by the door. This will neatly organize all your favorite pairs and has a comfy cushion that'll support you as you wrangle off your knee-high boots. *And* someone must have cast an undetectable extension charm on it, because it also has ~secret storage~ so you can hide away your entryway essentials instead of having them on display!

Amazon

Promising review: "The quality is fantastic! And it took me less than ten minutes to put together. It comes with everything you need to build it and really helps make my apartment look more organized." —Janette Sanchez

Get it from Amazon for $109.99+ (available in three colors and sizes). 

13. Or, a shoe rack organizerperfect for a larger collection of kicks, or if you're always having friends over (and they're no exception to the shoes-off rule). The super slim cabinet has dividers to separate your sandals from your sneakers and an open back for ventilation — so no funky ~aromas~ every time you open it up.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Depending on your shoe size, this can fit a different number of pairs.

Promising review: "Obsessed with this cabinet. The quality is great for the price, and it’s so stylish and doesn’t take up much space for the storage it provides! I added a few hooks on the side to be able to hang dog leashes. The only con would be if you have large feet, you aren’t going to be able to fit as many pairs of shoes in. My size ten shoes fit just right, but my husband's shoes sometimes have to go sideways, so I can only fit one to three pairs in the bottom drawer. But still better than on the floor!" —Nancy

Get it from Amazon for $94.99 (available in three colors).  

14. A beanbag cover to store your kiddo's stuffies if they've gone through their Disney phase, Pokemon phase, and Bluey phase — or just fall in love with every weird-looking frog at the store. This can transform all those piles into a super compact space for them to lounge on! And since it truly holds *so* much, you don't need to worry about having that "It's time to get rid of some of these" conversation. 

Amazon

Promising review: "These are perfect for any kids’ room!I was getting so tired of messy stuffed animals and blankets all over, so it’s nice to have them out of sight but still easily accessible. My 2-year-old loves to sit on hers and read books. She doesn’t have a ton of stuffed animals, so there is plenty of room to add to it for when her collection grows. I love the fun bright print and sturdiness — she drags it all over the ground, but I don’t worry about it tearing at all. Just what she needed in her room." —dd

Get it from Amazon for $24.98+ (available in 33 colors and patterns and in three sizes).

15. A magnetic stove shelf — there's truly nothing more ~magical~ than whatever science is behind making two metallic things stick together. This'll stick right to the top of your appliance so you can make use of every inch of space you've got, and will display all the extra spices and oils you don't want cluttering up your counter into a neat, satisfying row. Plus, it'll make cooking that much more seamless!

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Psst — it comes assembled and ready to install, so no tools needed!

Promising review: "The shelf installed in a snap. It has two sturdy magnets that hold it securely onto the slightly rounded back of my stove. I felt comfortable setting a full jar of honey on it, and I haven’t seen it move at all as I have been cooking. I have limited space in the kitchen, so I’m really happy to have an additional place to set things I need frequently. It doesn’t look like an add-on; it looks like part of the stove. I’m really happy with it!" —Sylvia J.

Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in three sizes and three colors).

And if you're looking for some spice jars for that extra ~clean~ look, these have over 11,000 5-star ratings!

16. And a magnetic fridge shelfbecause when you're living in what feels like a fairy's hut, you have to get real creative with where you're storing the groceries that don't fit in your cabinets. Reviewers say these are super strong, so you can neatly stack your heavier spell jars (or honey, whatever) without worrying it'll come crashing down in the middle of the night. And as a bonus, having your bread and fruits so neatly displayed will keep them from meeting a sad, lonely end in the back of your fridge. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Before and after picture. I was able to clear up space on my countertop by having this magnetic storage on the side of the fridge. The magnet is Super Strong, let me tell you. I could barely move it once it was stuck on — not like a normal magnet. I could always move it on the other side of the refrigerator and replace it later if it makes more sense, but for now it’s placed perfectly for how we maneuver in our kitchen. We live in an apartment, so vertical space is always something I’m looking to utilize. Great product I would recommend highly. —Kevin

Get it from Amazon for $25.63+ (available in three colors and in a pack of two).

And if that magnetic knife holder in the reviewer image is catching your eye, they purchased this one and gave it a 5-star review!

17. A tool organizing rack — if you've ever wondered, the secret to living in a small space is to just mount everything on the wall. Need somewhere to store your flying broomstick? Put it on the wall! A spot that'll keep your rogue mop under control before it floods your space? Yup, that too! These hooks and slots bring some much-needed order to your cleaning essentials (sentient or not) so you can stop hating on that messy leaning pile taking up precious floor space. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Love this broom/mop holder. So nice to save space and stay organized. Holds them so firm and flat to wall. Also has hooks that fold out as needed. I recommend this to anyone looking for space-saving storage!" —Jaclyn

Get it from Amazon for $16.97+ (available in four colors and in packs of two).

18. A rattan litter box enclosurebecause as much as we love our lil' Salem, we don't want to be met with the sight of their ~business~ every time we enter the room. It includes a litter-catching mat for stray bits (easy cleanup!) and can even double as their new lounge spot, where they can keep silently staring at you and sending their telepathic messages ("feed meeee" 🌀😵‍💫).

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

If your cat is prone to kicking the litter every time they go to the bathroom, you may still want to use a mat outside the box to catch any spills.

Promising review: "I wish I had bought this sooner. It looks really nice in my living room. I previously had a white wooden box that was twice this size, but this new one fits my small home and decor much more nicely. It's lightweight and easy to move for cleaning and completely hides the cat box. I like that it's a plastic-type material that looks like rattan or natural material, bc if my cat happens to miss his box, I can easily disinfect and clean the hideaway. I have my mind set up sideways so my dog can't get in and eat turds. —A.M.

Get it from Amazon for $60.99+ (available in four colors). 

19. A tilt-out hamper to help you get into the habit of not leaving your dirty clothes piled in the corner of the bathroom until laundry day. This lil' basket will keep them out of sight, and doubles as a spot to store your other bathroom essentials! We love a piece that pulls double duty.  💪

www.amazon.com

It comes with a removable liner for the hamper that can be easily lifted out and wiped clean with a damp cloth.

Promising review: "Straightforward assembly and a beautiful product, I was really happy. This looks perfect in a small bathroom, and hides the unsightly laundry pile nicely. I keep makeup on top and extra toilet papers in middle, with plenty of space. The bamboo is nice and water resistant too, so deals well with humidity." —AJohns

Get it from Amazon for $69.99.

20. A slim storage cartbecause that void between your fridge and countertop has the potential to hold so much more than stray crumbs, fallen napkins, and neglected magnets. This wheeled trolley easily slides in and out of the space and has front paneling to hide the bottles and jars you don't want on display. The wooden top will also give you a *bit* more counter space (and saves things from being lost forever in the black hole).

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I have a very small kitchen. This little cart gives me a handy place to keep kitchen items and gives me back much-needed counter space. I like the wheels so I can easily move it out of the way." —Diane Goble

Get it from Amazon for $53.99 (available in two sizes and three colors).

21. A cabinet shelf organizer to maximize the space you have — because every few inches are precious, especially when they can hide your troubles (clutter) away. With these, you'll literally double the amount of spices you can fit inside, and they're even sturdy enough for pots and pans (or your cauldrons, if you've been known to brew a potion or two)!

Amazon

Promising review: "EXACTLY what we were looking for. Oak color blends right into the interior of the cabinets, and white supports match our dishes. Going to, for sure, buy more for every cabinet in the house. Instantly gained twice the storage. No longer have to pick up a stack of dishes to grab a tray, etc. Bargain as well. Looks way better and supports so much more than old wire shelves... Solid wood/metal. Easy to install each shelf with nothing but the four screws included and a Phillips head screwdriver. Had all four 'built' in less than five minutes. 100% recommend! —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in six colors and two sizes). 

22. A sturdy storage bench for a gloriously spacious spot to ~throw~ in your blankets, shoes, and anything else you don't want lying out in the open. It's made of a cozy, boucle-like material, comes fully assembled (just screw in the legs! Oh yeah, it has legs!!) and makes accessing all your belongings *super* easy (unlike reaching up and wobbling underneath the weight of storage bins in your closet).

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This ottoman is exceptional quality for the price and has done wonders for my bedroom space. It stores a lot, and in a smaller apartment like mine, any aesthetically pleasing storage solution is a lifesaver for cutting down on clutter." —Natalie Rose

Get it from Amazon for $125.99+ (available in five colors).

23. Or, a minimalist storage ottoman so you can elegantly hide all the bits and bobs you frantically toss in when you don't want guests to see. The lil' stool can transform into a table right before your eyes (just flip over the top! 🪄) and would be the perfect space-saving vanity chair that can be tucked away when not being used (because yes, even your chair has the potential to support you on your space-saving journey)

Amazon

Promising review: "Exactly what I was looking for! I needed a small ottoman for my little reading corner in my bedroom and found the perfect fit! It’s small enough to fit the space but large enough to be comfortable. It has plenty of storage for a nice-sized blanket. It has thick fabric. It’s all around great quality! Don’t regret this purchase!!!!" —J Quinones

Get it from Amazon for $69.99 (available in five colors).

24. A hanging jewelry cabinet that doubles as a full-length mirror so you can actually wear the necklaces and earrings currently lying in tangled piles across your room. This cabinet has tons of features to display your growing collection, and even comes with a few shelves and compartments for your makeup — making it your space-saving, one-stop shop for getting ready in the morning! Who is the most put-together of them all? It's you.  👑

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

It also comes with everything you need to mount it on your wall or door. 

Promising review: "For the first time in a very long time, I have access to ALL MY JEWELRY! I've had a tendency to leave my jewelry in boxes all over, and when I needed something, I could never find it. Besides that, it was usually tangled up and not readily available. Now, I have a beautiful display cabinet with lights and a lock! It's well-made and I absolutely love it! I highly recommend this display jewelry box… You won't be disappointed. I hung mine on the wall because I liked the look better. But, it comes with the brackets of you wanted to keep it behind the door. 👍👍"  —CindyS

Get it from Amazon for $95.99+ (available in two colors).

25. A pair of versatile shelf dividers because unlike Elphaba, your books 'n' things like to ~obey~ gravity and topple over, creating a major eyesore. These are sturdy (one reviewer found they can withstand the weight of heavier leaning books!) and can be adjusted to the length of your space, so you don't have to hunt for the perfect-size containers. And, they're great for those falling stacks of clothes in your closet shelf, too!

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Love it. Love it. So glad I bought them. They have made the top of my closet go from chaos to beautifully organized. I can now find my shoes and have been able to stack some of my winter clothes. They are very sturdy. They were easy to install and slide based on the distance needed between items. My mom saw my closet a few weeks ago and ended up getting some for herself. I would highly recommend buying them." —Rivermont0326

Get a pack of two from Amazon for$17.99.

26. A steel toilet paper stocker — a clever lil' TP vending machine that hides up to 12 rolls so you're never left without them. It has a sleek design that doesn't take up much space or add to the visual clutter, plus you can add a cute candle and plant on top for max bathroom ~vibes~. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I really love it. Living in a shoebox in NY, I constantly look for storage solutions. This design is incredible. It takes up so little footprint and fits perfectly between the toilet bowl and the wall, and is very functional. I hate having to go to the deli store to get a couple of rolls of toilet paper at a time. Now I can get 12 rolls at a time, though if you get the larger rolls, they won't come through the hole on the bottom. You will have to retrieve the larger rolls by removing the top, which is not a big deal. I put a wonderful Olavie diffuser and body scrub on top, and it looks really nice. It's a must-have for any small apartment living!" —Ken H

Get it from Amazon for $56.

27. An adjustable ceiling garage rack if entering yours is a constant battle of climbing over bins, shimmying between old furniture, and hoping the precarious piles of boxes don't fall over. These heavy-duty shelves can hold 600 pounds worth of everything you don't use 24/7 (like seasonal decorations!), and you'll be *so* satisfied with the way you made everything feel spacious and functional, you'll wonder if maybe you've got a bit of sorcerer in you, too. 😉 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "We needed extra garage storage in our new home, and this garage rack solved that problem! It came with clear directions for installation. For the easiest installation, I suggest you have a second person for help. The moment we took the rack out, we immediately noticed the high-quality material it was made out of. If you need a garage storage solution, we can't recommend it enough! 10/10, 5 stars!" —JJ

Get it from Amazon for $137.99+ (available in six styles).
