Ending the Mud Room Mayhem
Every home has a place where stuff gets stashed, coats are dropped and supplies are hidden. This may be in several areas of your home or you may have a mud room as your go-to place for these items. Regardless, adding a little organization to the general area(s) is always helpful.
Our mud room has a closet with double doors – it’s not as functional as it might sound because there’s a dog kennel in front of one of the doors, but there’s a lot of room to store mud room-type stuff.
group like items together – in baskets, bins, boxes…
I attached them to my containers with stick-on velcro so I could move them around and change if needed.

Great ideas…ever since we put our batteries in a plastic shoebox we are always able to find them. We also keep a little screwdriver set in the box so that we always have the tool needed to open battery doors on children’s toys. It saves so much time that way. Love the labels too thanks for sharing them :0)

Washing machine legs!
We bought a new machine six months ago and must have stashed those legs on a junk table – I’ve been decluttering to reclaim that space and found them 2 months ago and *no* idea what they were..I kept them just in case someone could figure out what they were for – and just last night I put them in the trash since we couldn’t figure out their origin. I thought that they must be part of some toy-project or something, now long gone. I feel like such a dummy now.
