Tips for an Organized Mudroom

Mudroom Doorway Drop-Off

The garage entry is a hot spot in Toni Hammersley’s home. So the brain behind abowlfulloflemons.net  turned that space into an organization station. “The hooks are great for jackets and scarves, the basket for shoes, and the wall organizer for umbrellas,” she says. “When planning, I made a list of what needed to be organized and went with it.” The simple setup even keeps her kids in check. “The less our kids have to think about organizing, the more they are likely to do it.”

Mudroom Bright Ideas

1. Hanging baskets for umbrellas and re-useable bags at an eye-level spot ensure that you never be without on a rainy day or grocery day.
2. Plenty of coat hooks allow for everyone to have a spot to hang their seasonal clothing items.
3. A large basket for shoes establishes a no-tripping zone in the mudroom and keeps the clutter at bay.
