A storage bench is a smart and stylish way to add both seating and extra space to your home. To make the most out of your storage bench from ARV Furniture, here are some practical tips:
✅ 1. Choose the Right Location
Entryway: Store shoes, umbrellas, or winter accessories.
Bedroom: Ideal for storing bed linens, throws, or off-season clothing.
Living Room: Use it to hold board games, books, or blankets.
Dining Area: Store table linens, placemats, or extra dinnerware.
✅ 2. Organize with Storage Bins or Dividers
Use fabric baskets or plastic containers to sort items inside the bench.
Add dividers to keep things like scarves, gloves, or craft items neatly separated.
✅ 3. Rotate Seasonal Items
Store seasonal gear like holiday décor, winter wear, or summer towels.
Swap items out as seasons change to keep the bench’s contents relevant and clutter-free.
✅ 4. Use as a Multipurpose Piece
Seating: Use as a reading nook, dining bench, or hallway seat.
Table Surface: Some benches double as a coffee table or footrest—place a tray on top for drinks or décor.
Toy Chest: In a child’s room, it can double as toy storage and a play bench.
✅ 5. Keep It Clutter-Free on Top
Avoid piling items on the bench’s surface—this makes accessing the inside difficult.
Use decorative pillows or a cushion for comfort, but keep it minimal.
✅ 6. Label Contents (if hidden storage)
If using bins or compartments inside, label them for easier retrieval, especially if multiple people use the bench.
✅ 7. Maintain Cleanliness
Wipe down the exterior regularly to keep it dust-free.
If upholstered, vacuum it gently to keep it looking fresh and inviting.
A storage bench from ARV Furniture is not just an accent piece—it’s a functional storage solution that can declutter your space while enhancing its style. Use it wisely and creatively!
