We all want that organized drop zone, that beautiful mudroom, or a built-in bench with coat hangers for all our family members; but, sometimes, that’s just not an option. Today, we are chatting about how to create a drop zone for fall and winter gear that’s actually attainable for most. Whether you implement a new system for your gloves and hats (which we will give you a few options for) or learn how to corral what you have in a new way, you’ll walk away from this episode ready to tackle the space you have with a fresh set of eyes!

Inspirations that we talked about:
- We love this DIY cubby built-in. It’s a very custom, but doable DIY for most and uses the GARAGE!
- Suzannah’s Instagram post about shoes in the house
- Using the garage as a mudroom again: this wire system could be put up and utilized in just one weekend!
- If you don’t have a space to create closed storage for your drop zone, consider storing all your necessities in plain site! We love this moody entryway filled with a bench and hooks – the perfect starting point for a great drop zone!
- Baskets can be great go-to’s for hiding those pieces that you don’t necessarily want to display. Check out this more minimal drop zone that is still full of storage!
- IKEA’s shoe storage cabinets are great for shoes but think outside of the box with them as well! We love how Charlotte used an Ikea shoe cabinet for mittens and hats!
- If you have a traditional coat closet in your entryway, don’t forget about the vertical door space for storage. Hats and mittens can be stored on the door. Not only is this a great way to store them but you can let them dry out there too!
- Amazon has lots of affordable over the door storage options.
