With six people in our family, the gloves and hats and winter gear was turning into a bit of a mess. To organize (and save my sanity) we added a few wire baskets to control a little of the chaos!
I was able to easily create storage for a hat and set of gloves for each person by creating a separate space for everyone to put their stuff.


To start, I ordered some wire baskets from Walmart, then simply hung with metal picture hooks. (I'm not sure how sturdy the hooks will end up being so I may need to replace this method with some screws hooks, but so far so good.)


STEP 1
Measure out where you want your baskets and mark spaces for hooks. Use a level to ensure your baskets will hang nice and straight.



I made sure to allow adequate space in-between each basket so the kids wouldn't knock them off their hooks every time they reached in.
Hang your baskets and adjust as necessary for a uniform look.


Fill the baskets with hats and gloves and enjoy a more organized winter!
