Many interior designers suggest that your wardrobes (and basically all vertical furniture) should almost touch your ceiling - it looks better!

Meanwhile, it's not a great option for everyone - and especially those people who doesn't want to buy new furniture to suit a new trend.

Here are a few tips on what you can do when your wardrobes don't reach the ceiling.

Utilize storage solutions

Make use of storage items like baskets, bins, or boxes on top of your wardrobes. 

These can help you organize and store items that won't fit inside the wardrobes.

Install floating shelves

Consider adding floating shelves above your wardrobes. 

These can provide extra storage space for items that you want to keep within reach.

Use decorative baskets or boxes

Place decorative baskets or boxes on top of your wardrobes to store seasonal clothing, accessories, or other items. 

This keeps them out of sight and makes the most of the available space.

Hang hooks or pegs

Install hooks or pegs on the sides or back of the wardrobes. 

You can hang items like hats, scarves, or bags on these hooks to maximize storage options.

Create a display area

If you have items you'd like to showcase, use the space above the wardrobes as a display area. 

You can place decorative items, plants, or artwork to add a personal touch to your room.

Consider taller wardrobes

If space and budget allow, you may consider replacing your current wardrobes with taller ones that reach the ceiling.

This provides more storage without the need for additional solutions.
