Have you set decluttering and organizing your home as a priority for the new year? Great! We have an idea of how you can become better at it. As much as we love New Year\u2019s resolutions, we prefer to set clear and measurable goals especially when it comes to home organization. Believe it or not, an effective lobby or a practical mudroom is the key to an organized and tidy home. So, here\u2019s the main goal: to create an efficient, organized, and decluttered hallway so that everything else in the house stays in order.<\/p>\n

Step #1: Add storage options in the entryway area<\/h4>\n

Bags, totes, umbrellas, shoes, backpacks, raincoats, groceries, pet belongings \u2013 they all come to your home through the entryway and you\u2019d better put them in order right there. An efficient entryway or mudroom will make your life easier and help you organize stuff before they turn into a hot mess all over the house. A comfortable bench with a storage area underneath will do miracles. And you can always add an entryway bench cushion and throw some pillows on top of it to make it more comfortable. Depending on the space you have available you can also opt for a small cabinet or just some shelves on the wall. With a piece of storage furniture on your side, you will be able to better organize your stuff.<\/p>\n

Step #2: Hang your belongings with hooks<\/h4>\n

The more hooks, the better. It\u2019s just easier than using hangers on a rack. And the easier it is the more inclined you will be to hang your coats and jackets where they belong. That\u2019s really essential if you have a child in the house.<\/p>\n

Step #3: Use boxes, baskets, and labels<\/h4>\n

The bigger the family is, the more baskets and labels you will need. Assign a basket and add a label for each family member. Winter accessories such as gloves, scarves, and hats should better go in baskets with the owner\u2019s name on them. Otherwise, it will always be just a messy pile of stuff on the entryway bench cushion. Same for shoes. Make sure that everybody at home knows exactly where their footwear and belongings are. Pets included. Do not forget to customize your entryway for their needs as well.<\/p>\n

Step #4: Designate a drop station<\/h4>\n

Yup! That\u2019s the place that will hold everything from your pockets that doesn\u2019t belong anywhere else. Just add a box or a cute basket to have it all until you have the time to categorize it.<\/p>\n

Step #5: Make it cozy and inviting by adding an entryway bench cushion<\/h4>\n

Nothing can be cozier than an entryway with a small seating area. After all the hallway is your chance to make a first good impression.\u00a0 No matter whether it\u2019s a bench, a chair, or just a pouf, make sure to have one so that you can always sit down take your shoes more comfortably and take a deep breath before going in or out.<\/p>\n

The lobby is the transition area between our homes and the wide world outside so let\u2019s seat it up and make it comfortable by adding a comfy entryway bench cushion.<\/p>\n
