The eclectic mix of eye-catching pieces, textures galore, and delightful colors that can define even the simplest of bohemian bedrooms can make it feel like a designer showcase. But when a few focal pieces start to feel like they’re just taking up space, and another handful of not-so-secret storage solutions start to look like storage solutions, how do you hide that without sacrificing the aesthetic?
One key is the bedroom storage you can’t see and the other is bedroom storage you can see but that doesn’t look like bedroom storage. Indeed using what looks like an impressive piece of art is one solution I hang my hat on.
And I’ll drop a few suggestions of good near-invisible storage solutions that won’t hamper the appearance of a freshly styled boho bedroom.
The 20 Best Boho Bedroom Storage Ideas
1. Wicker Basket Storage Solutions
Shift your sleeping quarters into a boho haven with basket storage solutions. These baskets are functional—excellent for stowing away linens, accessories, or other personal artifacts—and they are also highly decorative.
The interior design of the room gains from the warm, natural texture and color of the baskets. A wicker basket holds whatever it is inside while making it look good.
2. Macrame Wall Hangers
Wall-mounted macramé hangers achieve the seemingly impossible. They serve the space of the room by acting as holders for various items and achieve an aesthetic quality that makes them art pieces themselves.
Knotted cords of various constructions are hung from wall brackets or directly from walls. The cut ends of the cords dangle, and on occasion, the entire hanger dangles, so what is hung from it can be seen and appreciated from any angle.
This is what makes wall-mounted macramé hangers perfect for the kind of bohemian visual that these spaces aim to achieve.
3. Rattan Storage Shelves
Rattan storage shelves are a perfect blend of function and aesthetic. And that makes them ideal for adding to a boho bedroom.
The bedroom’s natural-fiber shelves evoke warmth and texture in a way that maintains an airy feel but still organizes the space. Their intricate weaves and earthy tones play so nicely with bohemian decor, offering complements, not clashes, to the room’s inviting ambiance and making them ideal for all but the most minimal of room styles (which is arguably a bedroom spectrum side).
4. Vintage Trunk Storage
The vintage trunk storage idea marries practicality with boho-chic aesthetics to give any bedroom added character. This versatile piece serves as a stylish focal point while offering more than enough square footage to store anything from blankets to seasonal clothing.
5. Ladder Shelf Display
A ladder shelf display is a chic way to store your things in the bedroom and keep the room looking nice, as well. The open structure takes up very little visual space, so it doesn’t block light or views.
The “ladder” gives this shelf system a very different kind of architecture, and indeed, a book on modern furniture architecture claims that use of the word “ladder” as a basis for naming this pairing of shelf and support is “doubtful.”
6. Boho Blanket Ladder
A Boho blanket ladder is a stylish and practical storage solution for bedrooms inspired by the Bohemian aesthetic. It combines function with sheer good looks.
Right off the bat, the ladder’s rustic finish—the natural wood hue—practically begs for a showcase of colorful throws, beautiful textiles, or just plain blankets in all their various forms.
7. Wooden Crate Stackers
Take your boho bedroom to the next level with these crate stackers! They are such a charming, functional, and stylish way to store your bedroom essentials.
You know those cozy corners in your bedroom where you can escape with a good book? Well, use these crate stackers to house your current reads and all-time favorites.
Not only will they be easily accessible when you want to disappear into the pages of a novel, but they will be super cute just hanging out as part of the room decor.
8. Hanging Fabric Shelves
Hanging fabric shelves in a boho-inspired bedroom creative whimsical and artistic areas. These unique storage solutions serve just as well as any kind of usual shelving when it comes to holding items that one would want out in the open for easy access.
That holds especially true for the items that one might need to get to in the moment since they are right at hands’ length. But when it comes to the uses and appearance of hanging fabric shelves, there’s a much prettier and more interesting side to them, either as a bridge to the utopian ideal of an uncluttered living space or as the bohemian version of Marie Kondo’s “life-changing magic of tidying up.”
9. Open Weave Baskets
Baskets neatly take care of boho bedroom essentials. They are the perfect combination of utility and stylishness.
The bedroom is not always a small place, but it is not always a large one either. When you are trying to pack away items, you want to employ the most efficient methods.
But you also want to keep it light, visually airy, and unencumbered. Baskets add whatever they are storing to the decor of a room while achieving the aforementioned packing efficiency.
10. Reclaimed Wood Shelving
Wooden shelving made from reclaimed wood gives you the opportunity to accept form and function in the Bohemian bedroom. These shelves are the things you want bedside when zoning out with a book.
Stylish and rustic, they have a nice, personal touch and do not take themselves too seriously. Fit that into the Bohemian vibe of your bedroom, where space is both an art and a fact of life.
11. Floating Wooden Shelves
Make your bohemian bedroom functional and charming with wooden floating shelves that seem to defy gravity. These minimalist marvels appear to disappear; they do not detract from the decor, much of which is probably an eclectic assortment of stuff you love.
Natural wood—unless you’re using other materials that complement the decor—works best for these spaces’ organic textures and warm, welcoming vibes.
12. Decorative Box Storage
The appearance of a Boho-style bedroom has a not-quite-right aspect to it if it is not organized. If this room cannot be found to have a place for everything and everything in its place, as its occupants have found to be the appearance best for their bedroom, then it is impossible for this room to feel truly Bohemian.
Even more so than in other styles of bedrooms, it is crucial that the occupants of a Bohemian bedroom not be able to discern any boxes or containers. In short, these box storage solutions are not just ignored; they must serve an organizing purpose and, even more importantly, disappear while doing so.
13. Leather Strap Wall Hooks
Leather Strap Wall Hooks are a practical and pleasing solution for hanging storage in a Boho bedroom. These are not just your run-of-the-mill hooks; they’re made from quality leather and crafted with the kind of care that you can see and feel in the finished product.
They are the perfect choice for artfully hanging anything from a hat to a plant. And that’s the kind of thing that makes a rustic bedroom effortlessly charming.
14. Antique Chest Of Drawers
Elevate your bohemian bedroom with a vintage dresser that marries function and form. These majestic creatures, crafted with the kind of details that make you stop and look (seriously, you should), are always a good choice for the “something special” that a bedroom needs.
An antique chest of drawers will almost definitely have a patina, and probably some very cool texture. And if you can find one in a color that complements your existing palette, you’re golden.
15. Fabric Storage Bins
Storing in bins may not seem particularly inspiring, but it can be if you elevate the bin itself to a stylish home accessory. Here’s how to do that with intimate items you might otherwise be tempted to shove in a drawer.
Place soft fabric bins (shown in shades of tan and taupe here) on open shelving. Store hats, scarves, and other loosely bundled items inside.
16. Ceramic Jar Storage
Boost the bohemian style of your bedroom with the artistic allure of ceramic storage jars. The Jars come in a variety of eye-catching designs, making them as much a part of your decor as they are an organization tool.
They’re perfect for keeping small items you want to display nearby—jewelry, for example, or trinkets that weren’t quite right for a shelf but are too precious to tuck away in a drawer.
17. Tiered Hanging Organizer
The Hanging Organizer is a stylish and functional piece of bedroom storage that enhances any space with a Bohemian vibe. It has an unfussy natural look and is made from a medley of earthy, boho materials—layered up, it harmonizes form and function, offers free-spirited elegance, and keeps your sartorial personal items (or any number of trinkets) safely within arm’s reach, while maintaining a tidy and organized bedroom.
18. Canvas Wall Pockets
Wall pockets made of canvas are a trim and functional solution for storage in Bohemian bedrooms. They pull double duty: where they could easily be hiding a few rickety old wooden shelves, instead live these artistic pockets that are just as good for holding–as the magazine art above proclaims–small items.
Because while the pockets do look good (and pocket art is now a thing), they also carry the storage assumption.
19. Seagrass Storage Baskets
Make your boho bedroom even more adorable with these handcrafted seagrass storage baskets. If you have had your eye on these sustainable natural storage solutions since we first featured them, now might be the time to pull the trigger.
Earthy and organic, these baskets effortlessly maintain that “practical yet what-a-charming-space-this-is!” vibe that so many of us strive for in our personal sanctuaries.
20. Decorative Ladder Storage
The styling and storage solution offered by a decorative ladder is a perfect fit for a bedroom with a boho vibe. Not only is this piece of furniture—if you can even call it that—practical and space-efficient, but it is also charmingly rustic in appearance.
You could easily display folded blankets, for example, on the rungs of a decorative ladder. Or you could drape a ladder with scarves, so that it looks like an art installation while also serving as a way to keep those accessories from getting wrinkled.
