Small Entry Mud Room

   I wanted to reduce the clutter in our main area of our home. With the kids being back in school and having so much clutter in the front main room it looked horrible. So, I decided to take the little entry way from the garage and turn it into a mud room. Hubby and I both had different ideas some how we managed to work it out!

   I wanted a bench storage, but my husband didn't. After, looking at so many places we finally decided to head out to IKEA. I ended up agreeing on Hubby about not having a bench storage so that we can have 8 cube storage. All storage are from IKEA even the hooks. The rest of the decor are from TJ Maxx , Marshall and Michaels.

This 1st picture shows it with all 5 hooks!
Hubby came up with an idea to put the kids Initials on the baskets. People ask me what I have inside the baskets and boxes? The 2 bottom baskets 1 is the boys soccer stuff and the other I have my small purses and kids socks. The boxes on 1st room in bottom. One has the kids library books that other is empty for now. On top shelf from left I have more kids books inside. The 2 little photo boxes I have batteries in the one and the other are school supplies like pencils, crayons, and so on. The last box is the papers I keep throughout the kids' school year!

I love how it came out and also love that my main room area has no more shoes, bags and so on in the front anymore.

Thanks for stopping by!
