What's on my mind...

Beyond the Basics - mudrooms and entryways

My mudroom is one of my favorite rooms in the house. I love having a place where we can take off our coats and shoes and not drag all of the dirt, rain or snow into the main house. But keeping a mudroom organized is another thing altogether.

Locker-style cubbies like this are wonderful because they provide so much storage. If you don't have lots of room, put together a makeshift storage area. A bench with storage under (either shoe cubbies like the one below or baskets added under for hats and gloves) gives everyone a place to put on or take off shoes. Add a shelf above for more baskets or storage boxes, and a few pegs under the shelf to hold coats and backpacks.

We installed cubbies in our garage - on the back wall just before the entry to our home. Since our front door entry has no space for any furniture or clutter, and since we almost always come in through the garage, this was the perfect solution - keeps everything out of the house, including the dirt! Love this idea!
