Small Spaces & Budget Living

Half the emails I get start the same way: my room is tiny, where do I even start. This page is my answer. Everything here is about small rooms and small budgets, because the two usually arrive together. You will find the closet I sorted in two hours, the living room layouts I tested in a room barely wider than the sofa, and nine honest ways to find more storage in a small kitchen. There is a king bed in a small bedroom, a bathroom makeover with no demolition, and the downsizing edit I use when a room holds more than it should. No reno budgets, no pretending the room is bigger than it is. Just measuring first, spending second, and keeping the receipts honest.
