For home decoration, a lot of cabinets need to be installed. For example, shoe cabinets, wardrobes, cabinets, TV cabinets, cabinets and so on.

As for these cabinets, in fact, most of them are the same. Although they are different in appearance, the internal structure is also similar.

And I found that these 7 cabinets do not follow the routine at all. These seemingly simple decoration tips are full of wisdom of life.

This issue shares: 7 cabinets that don’t follow the routine. The full article is divided into seven parts: double-layer open-grid entrance cabinet; display cabinet; closet shoe cabinet; dining side snack cabinet; toy cabinet; mirror cabinet perforated board or bottomless cabinet; basin side cabinet.

(I) — —Double-layer open-grid entrance cabinet

For traditional entrance shoe cabinets, the bottom layer is usually left empty, and the upper layers are closed shoe cabinets.

However, this approach is not very practical.

Well, the first cabinet that doesn’t follow the routine is the shoe cabinet with two open compartments on the bottom.

One layer can store some shoes that are often worn at home; the other layer can store some shoes that are often worn when going out.

Moreover, even if there are visitors at home, there is always a place to put their shoes, so our doorway won’t become cluttered.

Therefore, the double-layer open-grid entrance shoe cabinet is indeed very practical. Don't just focus on the traditional suspended shoe cabinet.

(II)—— —Display cabinet

The second cabinet that does not follow the routine is the display cabinet in the living room.

In fact, for many friends, there are a certain number of display cabinets at home.

For display cabinets, we can put a lot of beautiful accessories in them. Friends who are interested in collecting can put some collected figurines and so on.

This unconventional display cabinet is different from the traditional display cabinet.

The specific method is to make a niche in the middle of the floor-to-ceiling shoe cabinet. Then, install a glass door at this position and install a light inside.

Then, after you turn on the lights, you will find a hallway display cabinet for display and storage.

Therefore, I personally suggest that if the space at home is small, you can use the shoe cabinet as a display cabinet at the same time, which is also a good little trick.

(III) — Closet and shoe cabinet

The third cabinet that does not follow the routine is the closet shoe cabinet.

The so-called closet shoe cabinet is to make the entire shoe cabinet into an integrated closet style when making a shoe cabinet in the entrance hall.

Compared with traditional shoe cabinets, the storage function of closet shoe cabinets is much stronger, and it is also more convenient and easier to use.

If there are many people in your family and you have a lot of shoes, then it is recommended that you consider a closet-style shoe cabinet.

The closet shoe cabinet can have internal partitions of different heights according to the heights of our shoes.

Moreover, different shoes can be placed in different areas, which is not only convenient to find but also convenient to store.

If conditions permit, we can set up some hanging areas inside the shoe cabinet to store umbrellas, bags, etc. that are often used when going out.

For the closet shoe cabinet, we only need to consider installing brackets on the wall of our space to complete the closet shoe cabinet we expect.

Therefore, I personally suggest that if the entrance space at home is relatively small, you can consider installing a closet shoe cabinet, which has an extremely strong storage function.

(IV) — —Snack cabinet beside the dining table

The fourth cabinet that does not follow the routine is the snack cabinet on the sideboard.

In fact, many of my friends love to eat snacks. When they see some delicious snacks every day, they can’t help but buy them.

Over time, I found that there were a lot of snacks piled up at home, placed together in a mess, and slowly I lost my appetite.

Therefore, we can consider placing a snack cabinet in the location of the sideboard.

Especially for those who like to stay at home and eat delicious food, you can consider such a cabinet, which will be very useful.

The specific location of the sideboard snack cabinet is our sideboard, which is made into a sideboard snack cabinet.

The conventional method is to use ordinary double-opening cabinet doors and then install upper partitions to make this snack cabinet into a cabinet similar to a refrigerator.

Once this cabinet is built, you will find that all the snacks in your home can be caught and put into the snack cabinet.

Moreover, they can be arranged in an orderly manner according to categories and production dates, making snacks full of the fun of life.

Therefore, I personally recommend that those who like to eat snacks at home should really consider this cabinet, which is very practical.

(V) — Toy Cabinet

The fifth cabinet that doesn’t follow the rules is the toy cabinet.

The living room is the main activity area for almost all families. If you have children at home, you will find that there will be more and more toys in the living room.

However, for most of my friends, there are no special cabinets for storing toys in the living room, and they are often piled together.

Well, my personal opinion at this time is that you can consider a toy cabinet.

In fact, the toy cabinet is not a special cabinet, but it also has the function of storing toys.

The specific method of making a toy cabinet is to reserve a few open cabinets with a height of about 40 to 50 centimeters at the bottom of the TV cabinet to be used as toy cabinets.

In fact, to put it simply, the bottom of the TV cabinet is designed to be left empty, and the size of the space is about 40 to 50 centimeters.

After that, we can buy some mobile storage boxes and put them at the bottom of the cabinet. Many storage boxes now have universal wheels at the bottom, which are very convenient to push in.

Then, all the toys in our living room can be easily stored in this storage cabinet and then pushed into our toy cabinet.

Therefore, if there are many toys in your living room, you should consider the storage of these toys in advance. A toy cabinet is indeed a good choice.

(Six) — —Mirror cabinet with perforated board or bottomless cabinet

The sixth cabinet that does not follow the routine is the mirror cabinet without a bottom board or a perforated board in the bathroom.

For mirror cabinets, there are usually layers of partitions inside, and its depth is about 15 to 20 centimeters.

Therefore, the storage capacity of the mirror cabinet in the bathroom is generally not very strong, and it can only hold some toiletries.

So you will find that there is no place to put hair dryers, electric irons and other items in the bathroom.

Well, at this time we can consider not making a base plate at the bottom of the mirror cabinet or installing a perforated board, and reserve a power supply next to it.

After that, you will find that the hair dryer, vacuum cleaner (small one of course), or electric toothbrush in your home can all be placed in this place.

Just in this area, the problem of having no place to put many electrical appliances in the bathroom has been solved to a large extent, making the bathroom now very clean and tidy.

Therefore, I personally suggest that when installing a mirror cabinet, you can indeed consider the actual situation of our home and choose a partial bottomless board or install a perforated board.

(VII) — Basin side cabinet

The seventh cabinet that does not follow the routine is the side cabinet of the bathroom basin.

For the common bathroom cabinets in our bathroom, the front of the bathroom cabinet is used as a cabinet, and the side is closed with a panel.

In fact, there is a very good way, which is to open the cabinet on the side. Because the layout of many bathrooms is that the toilet is on the side of the washbasin.

Then, we can move the basin close to the side of the toilet to make it into a side cabinet or storage compartment.

The function of this side cabinet is to store toilet paper and toilet cleaner.

In addition, if the size of this cabinet is designed appropriately, it can also be used as a trash can, which is also very good.

All in all, if you experience this side cabinet, you will find that it really fits our living habits and is really easy to use.

Therefore, I personally suggest that you reserve some storage compartments on the side according to the location of the toilet, which will really bring great convenience to your life.
