Linens That Glide

Organizer and stylist Eliza Krpoyan of Style My Life, in Los Angeles, has a cure for overly deep storage spaces that make it tough to grab anything but those sheets and towels right in front. Rolling shelves (with lips tall enough to contain potential runaways, like spare pillows) maximize access, making it a pleasure to put away and retrieve folded stacks. A stand-alone piece (shown here) is a smart, inexpensive solution for a home without a dedicated linen closet. Or you can custom fit an existing closet.

To buy: Pax wardrobe frame in Ballstad White, $100, and Komplement drawers in birch, $40 each: ikea.com for stores.
