apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

My favorite thing about this project is that it was a super simple way to give some order to an otherwise blah back hallway space. This hall always had coats and backpacks dumped on the floor (it opens to the garage, but the coat closet is three rooms away by the front door)... the constant mess drove me NUTS!

Best storage tip for families with children:
Make it easy for them to clean up after themselves, put storage options at their level and make sure they know what goes where. My kids actually hang their own coats up now and, more importantly, know where to find them in the morning when we're rushed and trying to get out the door!

Thanks for entering, Ramona!
