It’s been a while since I talked about our garage mudroom. Almost 4 months actually. Sheesh! We ended up having lockers built in when we had some other work done on our house. You can check out the progress and my inspiration pics here. TIP: If your having someone else build your lockers (or any other built-ins), save yourself major money by painting them yourself.
We started with an empty wall that leads inside. Our family uses this as our main entry. I always imagined this as the perfect spot for built in lockers. A spot where the kids can drop all their stuff off so it doesn’t end up on the floors and kitchen counters, and when running out of the house, they can grab it and go.
And, here she is!!! My organization heart still skips a beat when I see her!
Everyone has their own spot. The metal baskets above hold beach towels, pool toys, skates, and other toys. I love that it’s still accessible, but not in your face.
The cabinet in on the side offers even more out of sight storage. It was mainly built to conceal our Berkey water filter (seriously the best tasting water that will ever cross your lips, no lie). And, the trash can next to the door holds our dog’s food.
Sunscreen and bug spray are stored up top.
The water filter was placed on a notched shelf so you can easily pour water without having to pull the heavy filter out. Love that!
And the kids can easily get to their sidewalk chalk and bubbles at the bottom.
We’ve utilized this space multiple times a day. If you’re toying with the idea of putting in a mudroom wall (small or large, inside or out) just DO IT. And add lots of hooks. You can never have to many hooks 😉
Also, a big thank you to Cut Out & Keep for featuring me as their DIY Superstar this week!!! I’d love for you to stop by and check it out. They will be featuring a different DIY of mine each day!
Looks great – but I especially love the "hide the water container" storage!! Can you tell me what filter system you use?? I have those big ugly blue bottles 🙁 Thanks!!
Thank Lynda! It's a Berkey water filter. They come is a bunch of difference sizes, ours is one of the larger ones. It's seriously the best tasting water EVER. I like that you just fill it up with your tap water, that way you don't have to go anywhere for replacements or refills.
Last month I shared my plans for ripping out our existing master bedroom closet and installing an IKEA PAX wardrobe system. You can check out all of my inspiration closets in this post. A couple of weeks ago we flew my mom into town, my partner in crime when it comes to projects, and we…
This one’s for you Amy! Here’s a little bit of what I’ve been up to lately. Painting, painting, and more painting! I can’t wait to be done! We still have lots of baseboards to rip out and all of the windows to paint, ugh. Yesterday I did manage to whip up a pillow with some…
If you missed the last post where I shared our very first house. I’m sharing some photos from our houses over the years. A look back at what they looked like before I knew what my style was. Long before this blog and Pinterest were a thing 😉 Our 2nd House – Bixby, OK 2006…
It’s reveal time! But first, let’s take a quick trip down memory lane. Here is the main before photo of my dining room before I started tinkering around with it. And here we are right before the challenge with some changes already in place. Week 1 – inspiration photos {via Pinterest via Elephant Prettiness??} Week 2…
I wanted to group together some of the decorating tips I used when we were renting this last year. When renting a house, there is usually not much you are allowed to do, or if you’re not going to be there long term, not much you want to do to change its appearance. Making it “you” can sometimes…
The new sofa finally arrived!!! I’ve been so eager to share it with you guys. Our last sofa was a super trooper, lasting us 12 plus years. I loved that the slipcover was washable, and how well the frame and cushions held up over time. When it was time for a new sofa, I wanted…
