Sleek Wall-Mounted Open Shelves

Hanging Side Table

Another alternative to creating more floor space is to install a hanging side table. Hanging side tables provide an unconventional twist to your home décor. Create a whimsical environment by hanging your table to the wall or ceiling.

This design is creative and can be DIY-ed. However, this may not be suitable for homes with small children because it may not be 100% stable should they decide to use them as a swing.

Just unlock the table, and you can place the surface parallel to the wall. There are drop tables that can be transformed from a small narrow tabletop to a larger side table.
