Furnishing your living room: how to do it right

There is a time of year when furnishing your living room deserves even more attention. That time is October: the home decor month of the year. Want to make your living room cosier and more practical? With the right layout, decorative accessories and smart storage solutions, you can do it in no time. Plastic storage boxes from Sunware—such as the Q-line storage boxes and the stylish Sigma home boxes—help you organize your belongings neatly without compromising on style. This allows you to create a cozy living room that you can enjoy every day.

How can I make my living room more cozy?

A tidy house immediately creates more atmosphere, because clutter often makes a room look messy. So use Sunware Sigma home storage boxes in colors such as dark blue or dark green to stylishly store toys, magazines, or craft supplies. These plastic storage boxes fit perfectly in open cabinets or next to the sofa and also add a touch of design. 

Storage box for the living room tip: Place a few Sunware storage boxes in the cupboard for items you use less often. This way, everything stays neatly out of sight.

How do you create atmosphere in your home?

Atmosphere is created by a combination of warm colors and soft fabrics. Use Sigma home boxes from Sunware to keep small items out of sight and place candles, plants, and personal accessories on open shelves. 

For outdoors, the Q-line waterproof storage boxes are ideal for safely storing garden cushions and lights, so your garden or balcony always looks tidy. 

What makes a living room cozy? 

It's simple!  Place furniture close enough together to create a cozy seating area and use storage solutions to keep surfaces tidy. For example, place a few Sigma home boxes under a side table or on a shelf. They are both practical and decorative and add a nice touch. 
 

Let your child contribute ideas

Starting at a certain age, it is smart to involve your child in putting together the lunchbox. Suggest two types of fruit or allow them to choose the toppings. This way, your child feels involved AND often eats better.

A bento lunchbox: quick and easy food

Because breaks are short, it is important that everything is quick and easy to eat. Large pieces or complicated things are often left lying around. Therefore, choose small bites: cubes of fruit, strips of bread, loose vegetable snacks.
Tip: Use our bento lunch box with multiple compartments. This keeps everything neatly separated and also looks nice.
