Small Mudroom packed with function

Friday, December 17, 2010


THIS POST IS FROM ROOM REMIX - THE BLOG .
When I saw this small little mudroom in Country Living's 2010 House of the Year, I was so impressed with the way Katie Ridder packed so much function (and pretty!) into this small space.

The two cabinets plus the basket would provide a nice amount of storage, and the little bench in between is just the right size for sitting to put on or remove shoes. That whole wall could be a fairly simple DIY project using two inexpensive prefab cabinets, don't you think? They gave the cabinets a custom look by adding chicken wire, but if country isn't your thing you could use radiator grill material like Rebecca did in this room. A nice console table for throwing keys and mail with a mirror above (and some nice accessories, of course). Keeping everything understated in color and then adding the larger scale bold red wallpaper and large white accessories gives this country entry a fresh modern flair. 

What do you think?

Happy weekend...
