Storage ideas for a pretty and optimized entrance hall:
The good old coat rack
The coat rack – or the hook, depending on your language preference, is no longer really to present. It might be a little vintage , but if you like the bohemian touch, you will no doubt like this option which will remind you of the comfort of your grandmother’s home. They are relatively simple to install (no need to make holes in the walls), and take up little space. Their mobility is also very practical: you could easily move the coat rack near a heat source to dry the items there more quickly.
For a full vintage option , try grabbing a second-hand one, but for something more modern, all deco stores that respect themselves do.

Convenient removable hooks
Lovers of minimalist projects, this idea is for you! We love this shelf with its perforated panel that allows you to hang as many “S” hooks as you see fit. You could even have a color scheme for different family members to easily identify whose items are hanging on it. Everything you need to complete this project: a few metal hooks, a simple wooden board and a drill!
A decorative shelf and its boot rack
Is there anything more unpleasant than having to put on a pair of boots that are still wet? It goes without saying that a small drying station is super practical when you have just spent 10 minutes wading in the slush, so pleasant in January. We like its minimalist and space-saving aspect, perfect for small spaces. To achieve it, you just have to check the best interiors designers in Hyd
A well-organized wardrobe (yes, it is possible!)
Optimizing the space in your entry closet can make all the difference. Have you realized how much space there can be wasted in the upper part of the wardrobe? Install shelves, shoe racks , incorporate storage in the doors and rotate your seasonal items to keep only the essentials! You will find that simple small changes will help you see things more clearly and make it much easier for you to keep your wardrobe tidy.
A beautiful bench with integrated storage
When possible, having a bench near the entrance is always a must! If this bench can also serve as storage, that’s even better. One of the best tips for making benches of this kind without emptying your pockets: IKEA kitchen cabinets ! By using a little creativity and resourcefulness, you can create your own custom bench. You may need the help of a seamstress to create a cushion for the seat, but it is very realistic as a project. Opt for pretty leather handles and a pretty patterned rug to add texture and vibrancy to your entryway.
Really cheap wooden crates
The famous boxes of reclaimed wood are still relevant today. In my opinion, this is really a simple and effective solution if you don’t feel like investing a large amount of money in your driveway and if your DIY skills are … limited. Inexpensive, wooden boxes will allow you to easily create a storage module according to your needs and the space you have. To jazz things up, you could always decide to paint a few with spray paint. You could also stick small pieces of writing on them and write the names of each family member so that everyone has their own storage space. The possibilities are limitless!
A wooden wall bracket
Again for those who like a bit of vintage style , this type of wall hook is perfect for you! As decorative as it is practical, you can hang your accessories there, but also decorative things such as a small poster, a eucalyptus branch, a small macrame pendant, etc. Another plus point: the fact that they are foldable means that you can really play around with their length so that it fits your space perfectly!
IKEA wall storage for tight spaces
If your entryway is relatively small, very narrow storage units could be your allies. These small wall units sold at IKEA are intended for shoes, but nothing prevents you from storing hats, gloves and scarves! You could also use the surface to store small decorative items as well as a storage compartment. (I myself have a small ceramic plate to put my keys and other small items). Simple, but so effective!
A minimalist wall mount that’s super easy to make
Over the past year, we’ve seen several decorating projects that include rope and copper pipes, but this one is particularly pretty (and easy to do). Obtain a copper pipe of the desired length, a few feet of cotton rope, and some metal “S” hooks. Pass the rope (which should be three times as long as your pipe) through it and tie the two ends together. Hang the knot on the wall so that the pipe hangs horizontally. Add the hooks and you’re done! We like that it is as practical as it is decorative.
Funky metal lockers
Have you thought about the metal lockers in your hall? We particularly like the models with a little more vibrant color that give a funky touch to the entrance! You could either scour secondhand markets for quirky old lockers, shop at IKEA (they have a whole new collection of colorful lockers, go take a look), repaint them to your taste, and create an entryway just like you. We fall for it!\
Set up a “mudroom”
This solution is one of the most complete since the hall cabinet has several storage compartments: hooks for your jackets and bags, shelves for the smallest accessories and empty spaces where you can place baskets for your shoes. This locker room also has a bench, ideal for putting on safely.
A wardrobe in your hall?
You can use an arrangement similar to the “mudroom” and surround it with cupboards. These closed storage are perfect for giving the impression of an organized entrance. They will go wonderfully with shoe boxes!
A completely open organization
Nothing prevents you from proudly exhibiting your organization to your most curious guests! Use fabric storage baskets or boxes to quickly retrieve your accessories. For your jackets or hats, hooks are always a good alternative.
A metallic wardrobe for a vintage look
Ideal for both industrial and vintage decoration, you can get it in specialized stores, but also transform the old locker room in your gym. A lick of paint and you’re done! Choose a color that your guests can find in the large living room.
Prefer a closed storage cabinet
This solution is preferable for entrances visible from the main room! The choice of colors is therefore very important, in order to be in harmony with the rest of your interior. Arrange the interior of your closet to have compartments for each element. You will no longer have to waste time in the morning looking for your favorite scarf!
