diy entryway organizer shelfdiy entryway organizer shelfIn our last house, we had a small entryway, where we couldn't put any table to simply throw our keys or mail as you walk in. I found this cool entryway organizer on Etsy but wasn't willing to spend $90 for something that I could easily make myself.

The rustic look of this DIY entryway organizer fits perfectly with our interior.Β Another benefit is you can customize it to your needs.Β I opted for few hooks for keys, hooks for hats/bags, little shelf for a plant (that ended up with my husband's wallet so the plant had to go) and space for letters/bills that has to be paid.

Materials:

  • Common board (in my case it's 1x8x...)
  • Scrap planks
  • Ceiling hooks
  • Wall hooks
  • Minwax stain (as usual, I mixed Provincial and Weathered Oak in 70/30 proportion)
  • Screws and nails
  • Sanding block
  • A nice plant or a cactus if you don't want it to die fast πŸ˜‰

Instructions:

  1. Measure the scraps. You'd want to measure your wall first to make sure it fits and you make it the right size.
  2. Align the scraps, play with a layout and choose best for you
  3. Cut wood to adjusted length
  4. Sand the boards. I started sanding with P80 but then realized hand sanding is better for this project.
  5. Put parts together with screws and nails.
  6. Set up hooks
  7. Stain organizer. You can stain before you assemble it but I prefer to do it as the last step to make sure all pocket holes from screws are also dark.diy entryway organizer shelf

DIY Entryway organizer is a super easy, less than an hour project. I really hope you will try it. Let me know in the comments how it went and send me pictures! I love to see what you created!

If your space is narrow and horizontal organizer won't fit, check out my Vertical Entryway Organizer here.

Phase 1 of an unexpected renovation that I had to complete in 2 weeks is under my belt πŸ’πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

This brick hearth was such a challenge and oh boy, how much I've learnt from it! Will I look at bricks any time soon? Probably not πŸ˜… 
now I need to decide if I want to white wash this hearth (probably yess since I messed up with mortar cracks) and what to do with the back wall. Any ideas?πŸ€”

Full blog with all details is available at www.ifonlyapril.com (type in search brick hearth) and a video will be on YouTube tomorrow!

12 years in USA. 10 different places. All of the 12 years in USA. 10 different places. 

All of them were rentals.

 (well, to be fair, 7 of them were in NYC so no surprise πŸ™ˆ). 
I was dreaming about MY house. And it finally happened! 

This gorgeous old beauty is mine. It was meant to be from the first time I laid my eyes on it. It's a true love story😍😁 

Are you ready for all the projects that coming your way?😁

Sometimes it feels so liberating to let go of the Sometimes it feels so liberating to let go of the past and look forward for the future... 

I sold these bunk beds today and as much as it was a great built and I'm sad to let it go, I'm so excited for what comes next!

I feel letting go is the best thing you can learn in life. 

Plans are available on my blog and in my store. Check it out if you want to make the same bed for your kids!
