comfy windowsill desks for saving space

The problem of lack of space can be solved in many different ways: with space-saving decor and functional furniture and using every inch of space. Windowsills if any shouldn’t be wasted, and today I’m sharing a great idea – turn your windowsill into a comfy desk!

Small Windowsills

Find a proper windowsill in any room – living room, bedroom or dining space; a great idea is to use a balcony windowsill if you have a balcony. Even if your windowsill is small or very narrow – no problem, the main idea is that it should accommodate a laptop or a book. Add shelves on the sides to accommodate more things, go for built-in and open shelving, if the windowsill is thick, build in some drawers for storage.

Larger Windowsills

If your windowsill is large enough, you are lucky! You can create a large and comfy workspace, whatever the room is, and it can be even a shared one.
