What Makes the Perfect Mudroom?



Do you have an unused space near your front entry? Turning it into a mudroom can benefit your family in many ways! By serving as the home’s second entryway, the mudroom can help to keep the entire home neat and organized because it doubles as a storage area for items you often use and bring with you when you go out.

A mudroom should be aesthetically pleasing as well, given that it is the first thing guests will see as they enter your home. To create the ideal mudroom, the home remodeling specialists at DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Central Texas recommend these elements:

Racks & Hooks

Hats, scarves, coats, umbrellas and keys need somewhere to hang. Racks and hooks are a must in any mudroom, no matter the size and style. If you want a simple yet efficient mudroom, you can start by simply adding these elements.

Bench Seating

Upon entering your home and after hanging your hat, coat and/or bag, what will you do next? Often, you’ll take off your shoes. A bench lets you do this comfortably. It can also serve as a storage spot for footwear.

Individual Cubbies or Lockers

One of the best features a mudroom can have is a set of cubbies or lockers for each member of the family. Everyone gets their designated cubby hole where they can stash their daily essentials. Lockers may have hooks, as well as low storage for footwear and high storage for hats and bags.
