Did your roommate or kids move out? You’ve always wished your apartment had more space in your apartment. Instead of downgrading to a 1 bedroom apartment, now’s your chance to transform that unused room into a useful and exciting space. Revitalizing an unused space is a great way to breathe new life into your apartment, especially when space is a bit tight. This article contains spare room ideas that can help you make the most of an extra bedroom.

Let’s take a look at a few ideas you should consider for turning your spare room into the kind of space you can enjoy rather than just an empty room!

5 Spare Room Ideas to Make the Most of Your Space

Use every square inch of your apartment by incorporating these spare room ideas into your decorating.

1. Transform It Into a Library

Do you have loads of books that end of getting wedged into every nook and cranny of your apartment? Books are lovely items that look great when properly displayed. Plus everyone loves reading. Adding library shelving is the perfect way to turn your extra space into a reader’s paradise. Add a small sofa or lounge chair and you’re all set!

2. Transform It Into a Meditation Room

More and more people are discovering the transformative power of meditation. If this is something you’re interested in and have been seeking a place that is quiet and free of distractions, turning an unused space into a meditation room is the perfect plan. Decorate with scented candles, a rug, and a meditation pillow, and you’ll discover your own personal nirvana right there at home! 

3. Transform It Into a Relaxing Family Room

Sometimes all you want is a space where you can relax with your family and let the stress of the world melt away. So consider transforming that spare room into an oasis where you can prop your feet up and enjoy each other. Furnish the space with a comfy couch and chairs, rugs and candles, and perhaps some paintings that remind you of your favorite travel destinations.

4. Transform It Into an Entertainment Room

You don’t need to invest a lot of money to create your own home entertainment room. It’s all about having a space dedicated to enjoying your favorite movies, music, or video games, where you can stretch out and have fun! 

5. Transform It Into a Craft Room

Do you have baskets upon baskets of yarn laying around your living room? Or maybe a sewing machine cabinet taking up valuable space in your bedroom? What about all the paints and canvases taking over your kitchen table? Turning your spare room into a craft room not only gives your yarn, paints, or sewing machine their own space, it also clears up the rest of your apartment space.

Taking Advantage of All Your Space

These spare room ideas are only the tip of the iceberg. There are a million possibilities, and you’re limited only by your imagination. When you’re looking for guest bed ideas or wanting a multifunction bedroom, that’s a great time to let your creativity run wild!
