Coat Closet Turned Mini Mudroom

Our coat closet is teeny tiny and wasn't very functional. It's located in an odd space to the side of the front door. I decided to remove the door and turn the space into a mini mudroom.
Before this closet was a mess! It was a place to throw stuff, close the door and forget about it.
When the front door was open it was difficult to access the closet.
Now it's a completely different space!
The shelves and supports are made from pine boards that we had cut to size at Lowe's.
I added hooks for coats and bags and some wire baskets for extra storage.
To corral all the shoes I made a rolling shoe bin. I started with an unfinished crate, painted it and added casters. Then I used leftover scrapbooking letters to label the crate.
I love how much more functional this space is now! An added bonus is it stays neat and tidy because I can't close the door and hide the mess!
