No matter if you have a sprawling house or a 600-square-foot studio apartment, everyone can use a little more storage space. But other than the closets your floor plan has gifted you, it can get a little tricky to find the room to store all of your clutter. That’s when you have to get a little creative with the furniture you buy and see if you can make one piece do two jobs for you. While it’s common to have beds with roll-out drawers or dining room sideboards that double as cabinets, there are some more innovative furniture solutions you might not have thought of. One such option is to get mirrors that work double-time for you with storage, like floor-length mirrors that turn into mini clothing racks, and decorative bedroom mirrors that become secret jewelry armoires. Below we rounded up eight of our favorite storage mirrors that serve as the ultimate hack to your organizing plan.

You can store anything from bathroom towels to skincare in the shallow cabinet, and it even comes with two hooks on the side so you can hang your towels or robes. This could also be a great addition to a bedroom, where you can squirrel away a shoe collection or random odds and ends behind a door.
