you can't be using every bit of space..... I have very tight dwelling area myself. Stuff is everywhere..... make places...<br><br>I bet you wife needs a shoe rack organizer... buy her one she will love you for it. get the type that works like stairs and displays the shoes in rows. You can put quite a few tins under it, with other supplies.<br><br>I find spaces here all the time for other things I want, and need. You might have forced air...try pulling the grates off. You will find space there...... Once right after I was divorced I had to live in NY for 1 year. Coming from NH I had several hand guns.... I found a floor grating in the NY dwelling and put all the guns next to the forced air ducting, with the grate back on it was as it had been.... ofter water shut offs have a pannel access, and you can find space there too. How about a trap door above a closet? Look around
