Wolf Settings

This idea is simple, but it isn't going to save, change, or significantly alter your life. It might give you a little more space, though.

So you have a bed. Chances are this bed is on a metal frame that gives you about 5 inches of clearance off the ground. This isn't enough space to really do much with. What this does do is take precious space away above the bed.

The idea is this: either raise or lower your bed.

You get two choices: You can dump the frame and the box spring and throw that mattress straight on the ground, or you can buy a strong wooden frame that lifts that bed higher than 5 inches of the ground. So you're either giving yourself some space up above (for cupboards, hanging lanterns, shelving, etc) or your giving your space down low to store all that crap.

Like I said, this is a tiny little adjustment...but we can take a valuable life lesson from this. And that is to get out of the middle. Get higher, or get lower, but get off the horizontal fence, as it were.
