My home is soooo small.

My home is so small and I try so hard to minimalize everything! Every other week I give to chartities...things I decide I can no longer use. My house is a small cape cod, galley kitchen, one bathroom, basement, dining room and two bedrooms. All small. I like order, so in a small space I realize that everything must have a place. Any suggestions? I knew I should have bought that bigger house!

Utilizing wall shelves and decorative bins are on way to store items in bathroom and bedrooms.
Make sure any furniture that can have storage does. For example use a trunk for a coffee table, storage ottomans, totes under beds. On shelves use baskets and/or boxes.
