Organize Your Entryway in a Day With a Corner Unit
We hate shoes piling up on the floor more than anything, so we knew we had to come up with something creative. We had a 14" x 12" corner full of valuable real estate, but we knew we couldn't just install boring floating shelves or shop forever for a perfectly-sized, expensive piece of furniture. Reclaimed wood, old spindles, and plumbing fittings and piping would do just the trick. We created a tall corner unit with shelves--perfect for catching those small everyday items that can otherwise make your entryway look cluttered.
I wanted the shelves to look worn, not new, so I made a bunch of marks all over the new plank of wood. It definitely gave the wood a more "used" feel.
To really secure this unit to the wall, we decided to use plumbing pipes and fittings to mount the top three shelves. I spray painted the fittings a glossy white to fit the decor of the hallway. You can leave them as you buy them or spray paint them to fit your decor!
Definitely a one-of-a-kind piece that you can customize to fit your space!
