TikTok Found The Perfect IKEA Product For Extra Bedside Storage

In a small bedroom, space is at a premium. A bedside table is important to keep things organized, but sometimes it isn't possible to fit one in. Enter the VIVALLA tablet stand from IKEA, which will help you organize your small bedroom perfectly. Intended as a place to store your tablet when you're not using it, this product doubles as a handy storage tool.

A lack of bedroom space can mean smaller items like the book you're currently reading and your glasses case have nowhere to go and end up on the floor, increasing the possibility of them becoming lost. As of 2022, 2.6 million studio apartments and 9.3 million one-bedroom apartments existed in the United States (per the National Multifamily Housing Council), showing that space is at a premium. Whether you live in a studio or just generally don't have much room to work with, it's key that the space you do have is maximized for the best effect. The VIVALLA will ensure you can keep track of everything without taking up precious space. Of course, this item isn't just for smaller rooms. If you do have a lot of items you keep in your bedroom, it will help you stay extra organized whether you have a bedside table or not.

Taking the VIVALLA stand, simply slot it in the gap between your bed frame and your mattress. The curve should face outward so you can slide things into the gap easily. That's all you need to do to have useful extra storage that will take up no extra room. Though this hack is great for organization, we wouldn't recommend using it to store fragile items like your phone. While it should be fine if you have the stand in your view at all times, during the night you could shift about, which could then cause items to fall out of the stand. 

Because of this, it's best to use it for things like books and magazines so they're close by when it's time for bed. Additionally, though the design is stylish, the fact the VIVALLA only comes in one color (bamboo) means it won't match all décor schemes, which could be an issue considering that it can't be hidden away. However, on the whole, it's an excellent and affordable solution to a lack of bedside storage.
