However, there’s a fine difference between being a collector and being a hoarder, and many residents of Singapore find that they do not have enough storage space in their homes to adequately supervise all their material objects and collections. So here are some incredible storage ideas you can use to satisfy the hoarder in you!

Customized shelves are designed specifically for whatever you want to store or display in them. If its designer bags that you want to display, then each shelf must be large enough to accommodate the typical size and dimension of a bag. Similarly, if you’re designing a storage shelf for your watch collection, then make sure to emphasize the display as well.
2. Vanity storage
