5 Ways to Transform Your Entryway

Your entryway makes the first impression on every guest who walks into your home. If your entryway is cramped and non-functional, we’ve got you covered. Here are five easy ways to transform your entryway into a memorable space:

1.) Make your own DIY coat closet.

If you don’t have hanging storage in your entryway, you can easily install wood shelving to create your own coat closet. As we transition through the seasons, having an organized place to store rain jackets, beach towels, and light overcoats can make life easier.

2.) Invest in multifunctional organizers.

Using a stackable organizer, such as a ClosetMaid 15-Cube Organizer, is ideal for entryways and can prevent your shoes from ending up in a pile by your front door. Make a habit of using these pieces to store your items so that your entryway stays clean and organized all year long.

3.) Add seating.

If you have extra space to work with, adding a small couch or storage bench to your entryway can make your space feel more comfortable and relaxed. A multipurpose piece like ClosetMaid’s 3-Cube Storage Bench provides additional storage and gives you a place to sit while you kick off your shoes.

4.) Decorate easily with a rug.

Give your entryway a finished feel with a runner that fits your style and personality. In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, invest in a durable rug that can handle the wear and tear of a high traffic area like an entryway. Check out these affordable mudroom rugs for inspiration.
