Instead of hiding your shoes under a bench or inside a closet, how about you put them on display? Yes, it’s a bit unconventional but chances are you are too and let’s be realistic, you won’t keep all your pairs of shoes on shelves. You can select a few that would look cool up there and hide the rest. Check out the project on lilyardor.
Some things can look nice and be practical too. Take this hanging entryway organizer for example. It’s simple and very chic and it even has a mirror in there, hanging between the coats and hats. You can find this little project on apairandasparediy.
Keep your most-used shoes close at hand and what better place for them than right under the entryway bench? Sit down and reach underneath to find your shoes…it’s such a natural thing to do. Even if they’re on display all the time, that actually looks quite nice. It’s an organized system with lots of potential. Find out more about it on bobvila.
For all other things, a wall organizer could be a nice idea. You can make something out of wood, with little baskets or pockets for sorting mail and hooks for hanging bags, hats and other things. You can find the tutorial for this on shanty-2-chic.
These cute little boxes also have the potential to make the entryway more organized and better-looking. You could hang multiple boxes on a wall, each with little hooks at the bottom for keys. Inside you can store mail, leave notes or display a few family photos to create a more welcoming ambiance. Check out theweatheredfox to find out how these organizers are made.
We like the idea of personalizing the entryway and this is a great way to do it. This is a coat rack with personality in the sense that it’s not just a collection of hooks but also a beautiful decoration for the entryway. Check out almafied to find out how you can make something similar.
If you’re a fan of boots you’re probably also tired of not having a proper way to store and to organize them. As it happens we came across a really cool idea on bobvila. The tutorial shows you how to make a simple boot rack with a cute accent shelf on top.
Wooden crates are pretty amazing because you can group them to create storage modules for various different spaces and purposes. In this project from themerrythought the focus is the entryway and the crates are used to create a custom shoe storage unit with several compartments.
Console tables are often defining features for the entryway and it’s doesn’t really matter if this is a small closed space or an open area that seamlessly flows into the living room. You can use a beautiful entryway table either way and don’t forget to decorate it with vases, framed pictures, little storage baskets and other things.

This rustic entryway coat rack is quite similar to something we showed before. It has a bunch of hooks at the bottom and a shelf at the top where you can display a few decorations or that you can use as an extra storage space for hats, bags, gloves, bike helmets and various other things. The idea comes from lizmarieblog.
A simple trick that you can use when putting up storage modules or furniture in general is to give the impression of floating pieces by leaving some room at the bottom. For example, these entryway cubbies and also the bench underneath them create an airy, spacious and light decor. This is something that you can apply in other spaces too.

If you have room for a coat closet in your entryway then by all means take advantage of that. Maximize your closet space by developing a good organization system, with shelves, rods and even hooks on the inside of the door. Find more useful tips on howtonestforless.
A freestanding coat rack could be nice, especially if you enjoy reorganizing your entryway every once in a while, when it starts to look boring. You can make this cube coat rack yourself from scratch. The project is described in detail on remodelaholic.
We find storage cubbies to be very useful in entryways because there are usually lots of things that end cluttering this space, like pairs of gloves, scarves and accessories in general. This custom module features cubbies at the top, coat hooks underneath, a boot rack on the side and a bench at the bottom with more storage for shoes built into it. It really is an all-in-one piece.
