17 IKEA Hacks That Will Rescue Your Disorganized Entryway
You can use a shoe cabinet to store literally everything you need.
Bonnie Tsang
Entryways are tricky: They need to be beautiful enough to make a lasting first impression but functional enough to keep you moving in and out the door efficiently. Not everyone is able to have a dedicated room by their front door for keys, coats, and shoes. The good news? You don't need a fancy hallway, foyer, or mudroom to keep all of your stuff organized and ready at a moment's notice—in fact, you can DIY a proper entry space no matter how much square footage you've got (even if you're construction-averse) using IKEA products. Trust us: You won't believe the power of a small shelf or spice rack.

Transform a Spice Rack
The space that usually holds your coriander is big enough for a few essentials, like sunglasses, and decor, like magazines and books. Add five hooks to the front, and you can hang keys there, too.

Squeeze Cabinets Onto Walls
Wall-mounted cabinets offer storage that's covered up (open shelving is just too much pressure) but are still narrow enough to not block off the walkway.

Use a Rail Instead of a Rack
Forget the giant coat rack that always topples over. This horizontal option takes up zero floor space, but offers the same amount of storage. Oh, and did we mention the basket is the perfect spot to drop your keys, so you're never hunting around the house for them?
