Storage Cubes Keep You Organized With Style

Of all the different shapes used for storage containers, one always stands out.  Storage cubes are a functional way to keep your belongings that can look incredibly stylish at the same time.  In fact there are a few different types of containers which all fall under this name. So here is a quick introduction.

Fabric For Color

A very chic and often colorful way to keep organized is with fabric storage cubes.  Many of these are actually made from canvas. Fabric cubes are not a form of shelving but instead more like a cube shaped basket that you place your items inside of. These baskets can then be kept on the floor, in bookcases, on tables, or in square shaped cubbies.  You can find them in a wide array of attractive colors and patterns. In fact using a number of brightly colored cubes is an easy and inexpensive way to add a splash of color to a dull room.  

On The Wall

Storage cubes can also be used on the wall. With this type there is no front or back to the cube. It is attached to the wall and you can use it as a square shaped shelf.  They are not meant to be able to hold a large number of items but do come in various sizes. Using multiple cubes that are small, medium, and large set in different places around the room can be very appealing to the eye and convenient for keeping your things like books, knickknacks, and picture frames.

Modular And Modern

Another type of shelving are modular storage cubes.   Typically you will find these made from wire.  They can look very modern in style and that is why they are a favorite for use in trendy shops and boutiques to display their items.  One of their best features is that you can attach them to each other building as you go, so you can create your shelving to meet the needs of your specific space.

Wood Always Works

There are even options for those who prefer the look of wood. Wood storage cubes are normally covered with laminate and come in a few different sizes.  Some are made up of a single storage cubby while others have two or three.  While they don’t lock together like the modular type, they can be stacked on top of one another when you need more storage. 

You probably had no idea cubes came in so many different types to help keep your space from becoming cluttered.  Which one you choose depends on your specific preferences and taste.  But be sure to not overlook these simple yet effective storage solutions.
