I want to get new wardrobes in my 1950's house. The room has a chimney breast, but the current 70's style wardrobes go into the alcoves and fully across the chimney breast areas, ie the full length of the wall.
This means that the "chimney breast" part of the wardrobe is practically useless, as the shelving is only about 5-6 inches deep. However, desparate as i am to get as much storage as possible, i'd be willing to do the same again (Its not too bad for bits of toiletries etc.).
I'm sure this is a common enough problem, has anyone got any inspiring ideas to make this shallow space as useful as possible?
ta!
