Holiday Builders – One-Bedroom Homes

A one-bedroom home doesn't have to be a tight squeeze for you and your possessions. Holiday Builders' one-bedroom homes are spacious and designed to fit both you and your personality! Here are some additional space-saving ideas for smaller homes:

Keep your windows clean! The light will stream in, and your world will expand outward.

Make your furniture multi-task. Coffee tables can offer storage underneath, or ottomans can double as extra seating.

Reflect on it. Mirrors open up spaces and brighten them when teamed with lamps or candles.

Store it away. Under-bed storage bins take advantage of unused space and stay out of sight.

Simplify. Do you really need magazines from the previous decade? Or 212 pens? Or enough Tupperware to host your own party? De-cluttering will give you more room for the things you really treasure.

Time and again, when asked what they want most in a bedroom, people say they wish it were a sanctuary - a quiet retreat from the day's stresses. Here are a few tips for making your bedroom the oasis you desire.

Let the bedroom be a bedroom. It's tempting, especially in smaller homes, to create office/bedroom/TV room/libraries out of our poor bedrooms. But when you banish the computer and even the TV, you're left with a more tranquil space with fewer distractions.

Choose plush fabrics. Spoil yourself with nice bed linens, curtains and rugs. These simple changes will make your bedroom more luxurious, for a room that's closer to the Four Seasons than the Super 8!

Put a shine on it. Mirrored dresser tops, a small chandelier, pretty glass dresser knobs and glowing candles bring a bit of glamour to a bedroom.
