So with winter fast approaching, I thought it would be fitting to get our coat closet organized. This little one between the garage door and our kitchen needed a little love and a lot more organization.

Coat Closet Organization Makeover

I first tried just having two laundry baskets at the bottom for shoes, but it was really annoying to dig through to find matching pairs.

So Saturday we drew up a plan and got to work and within a few short hours our new coat closet looked refreshed and organized!

So another space organized and crossed off my to-do list.
I have another one of these small closets on our main floor.
Guess I’ll hit up that one next!

    what a great idea…..shelving on the bottom for shoes……..my coat closet is much slimmer….but could work.

    Wow! You make this look completely do-able! Your closet looks tidy, fresh and ready for the winter weather. I think I can probably work this into my budget and schedule. Thanks for another great idea!

      Thanks Jillian! It’s from the Coach outlet this past summer. It’s called the Hadley Multicolor Stripe Canvas Beach Tote Bag.
