Back Entrance Storage Cubbies
In June I showed you what my back entrance looked like after my boys came home on the last day of school. I also shared my future plans to finish the area, if you missed that post, you can view it here.
Well I’ve finally finished it all and today I’m sharing my coat, hat & shoe storage.
(That mail organizer hanging on the side of the cubbies was shown HERE
When we were building our home, I designed this area and had my cabinet guys make this piece. It’s all one big built-in unit.
There are four cubbies, one for each of my boys. The Mr. and I keep most of our shoes and jackets in our master closet. Our work shoes and jackets are stored in the garage.
Inside each cubicle area are hooks for coats and caps…
… and a hook that holds each of my boys chore charts. I just added the red and black chore chart to my Etsy Shop,
. If you missed it, you can view my post on the chore charts

These large bins are from Wal-Mart. In the winter, hats, gloves and scarfs are stored in them. In the summer you’ll often find swim goggles and other summer stuff in them.
I labeled the bins using red vinyl cut out with my Cricut and the opposites attract cartridge.
The bottom drawers are for shoes.
This is what it looks like after I clean out the drawers. I promise you this, it only stays this way for a short amount of time and with keeping it real…
This is the way the inside of the drawers look most of the time. Yes, that’s dirt and grass and everything else that shoes bring in :) To vacuum them out and reorganize them, I probably don’t do that often enough . . .
. . . but, that’s why I like the fact that the drawers close. That way, you can’t see the mess. It’s all hidden. :)
Stinky shoes (like soccer shoes and muddy boots) are stored in the garage. I’ll show you my garage in another post.
There are so many great entry way storage solutions out there. I shared
a storage bench and wall shelf unit
with you a while back (which reminds me, I still need to show you how my clients entry way turned out and her entire home for that matter. One of these days I'll show you her home.)
That is my storage for coats, hats, shoes and such in our home. Make sure to come back soon to see the the reveal of my back entrance completely finished.
Wishing you a blessed day!
