Put them in your bedroom instead if you don't have extra storage space. That's what I do in my 1br apt.
You are projecting your life onto mine.
I don't live in a 1br apartment.
Formal living room is nearest the front door and bedrooms are upstairs.
Sorry I wasn't specific. House is getting too big for me anyway as the kids go off to college.
