Repurpose Bed Slats This $10 IKEA hack really thinks outside the bed box. The Sultan Lade usually hides under the mattress, but the wooden planks can hold magazines, kitchen herbs, and even shoes when hung vertically. See more at Ich Designer. Good for a garage entry or mudroom. Lots of things can go here: unbrellas in cages, etc.
Interesting for lots of storage. A longer hall with floor to ceiling cupboards. You could put these in a mudroom entry, or in a room. I've thought about having one wall of a room just for storing decor (seasonal), wrap, extra step stools. But these sorts of thing would be in specific rooms near where they are needed. Still, the cupboards are nice. Like the Shaker style.
Big wide entr;y that flows right into the kitchen. Great for entertaining!
