    Mudroom In A Closet - $100 Room Makeover Reveal

    Lets stay home sign

    Hey friends! I'm so excited because it's time for the mudroom in a closet reveal! I tackled this project for the $100 Room Challenge hosted by Erin from Lemon, Lavender, and Laundry.

    If you're a first time visitor, welcome! I'm so glad you're here.

    Weekly progress posts  ---> Week 1 | Week 2 |  Week 3 | Week 4 | Reveal

    Speaking of weekly progress posts. If you're a regular reader of the blog you might have noticed I did not have a week 4 update. Well, I realized that my week 4 update would've shown too much of the finished space {I mean it is a closet after all}.

    But nothing's stopping us now, so let's take a look at the finished space.

    This closet started out as a slightly larger than usual coat closet.

    Now it's a cheerful and functional mudroom in a closet!

    Small Mudroom Closet Makeover

    Like I shared in week 1, our new home {that we've only been in for a month} does not have a mudroom, unlike our previous house.

    This made me determined to carve out a spot where we could keep our day to day necessities {shoes, book bags, jackets, keys, etc...} without it being on display to anyone and everyone who comes to our home.

    Mudroom Closet Makeover Ideas

    Although this closet is not huge 3" x 3 ¾", it's big enough to function perfectly as a mudroom.

    In week 2 I was holding my breath to see if one of the two Ikea Hemnes shoe cabinets I have would fit in the closet. It did and that's when I knew I could move on with this project.

    Mudroom shoe organization

    This super slim shoe cabinet from Ikea ensures there's no pile of shoes in the entryway {although I'm sure my kids are going to put that theory to the test}. The faux marble top {contact paper} and numbered knobs was an easy Ikea hack I did for my last mudroom.

    On the other wall. I took advantage of the vertical space with high and low hooks. The kids can easily reach the lower hooks, so no excuses for not hanging up their stuff.

    Mudroom Closet Coat Hooks

    Unfortunately, this closet did not have any lighting, but it did have an outlet! So I installed a white gold and black wall sconce, that use to be in Jaden's room in our last house.

    The 3 seagrass baskets from Target hold things like our hats and gloves. While the black wall basket is a great spot for our sunglasses.

    A small mirror from Target's One Spot is perfect for a last look before heading out the door.

    Mudroom Organization Ideas

    To make this "mudroom" even more functional I added a pinboard and metal wall organizer.

    Mudroom Closet Paper Organization

    The touches of pink and turquoise add the perfect pop of color to this otherwise neutral black & white, and gold color scheme.

    Mudroom Closet Rug

    Admittedly this was not a huge project. But, it's one that will be very useful to my family. Not only is this closet functional but also pretty with inexpensive finds.

    shop the look | thehomeicreate.com

    Total  Budget: $100 

    $26 | Hooks {2}

    $38 | Baskets {3}

    $17 | Rug

    $12 | Planter

    $5 | Round Mirror

    $3 | Letterboard

    Total Spent: $101

    Plans:

    Week 2: Gather and purchase major pieces {hooks, shoe cabinet. etc...}

    Week 3: Decide on pinboard vs. mirror, paint paper organizer, hang hooks, and source a small colorful rug.

    Week 4: Add final touches and decor.

    Week 5: The big reveal!

    A big thank you to Erin for hosting this fun challenge, that has helped so many of us complete projects in our home on a budget!

    Thank you also for the all of you who followed along I truly appreciate it!

      This looks perfect! I am so happy to see that a closet can function as a mudroom, because we are moving to a house without a mudrrom and I feel like I'm really going to miss it. The new house does, however, have a huge closet, so I'll be trying my hand at using it for a mudroom. Thanks for sharing your beautiful space with us. So happy to have you join in for another round of the challenge (and a month after moving!)

      I can't believe what a difference you've made in this closet. It looks huge now, and so cute! That rug is perfection, and I love all the other little touches you've added.
