With the rainy season right around the corner, now is a great time to get started on that mudroom you’ve been thinking about. Mudrooms are becoming more and more common; this comes as no surprise to us considering how convenient it is to have a designated space to keep everyday items organized. Today's mudroom is a stylish interior space on its own, intertwining seamlessly with the rest of the house while also providing useful storage. Here are a few tips to ensure you get the most out of your space.

Use Baskets

When it comes to organizing your mudroom, baskets, bins, and boxes are all excellent storage tools. For example, you can separate shoes and hats into bins, or you can assign one bin to each family member. You will never regret using these versatile pieces, regardless of how you organize them.

Helpful hooks

Make the most of awkward or dead spaces by converting them into something you will use. A row of simple hooks along the perimeter will transform a once-empty nook into a convenient drop zone. With just a bit of wall space, you can organize several items.

Pet Station

Sharing a home with our furry friends can be very messy, a mudroom is a perfect place for a doggie pit stop. A small wash station means no more dirty paw prints around the house. A sophisticated palette of durable materials will make it feel sleek, despite its practical purpose.

Bench for Putting on Shoes

Having a designated spot for taking your shoes off and on will not only help keep dirt out of the house but will also help you keep up with the placement of all your shoes! The bench will even provide space for more storage.
