30 Day Challenge

Ok, she talked me into it. I’m going to tackle this hall closet this month. I’ve sat and thought about it tonight and I think I know what I want to do with it after I clear all the tools out.

I’m going to build a bench into the back of it and put two big organizing tubs under the bench. One will hold swimming towels and one will hold swimming toys and equipment. On top of the bench is where we’ll store our huge swimming bag that we don’t really have a good place for right now. This will be great because this closet is right next to our mudroom. When the kids come in sopping wet from playing outside they will be able to grab a towel without yelling for me. Plus it will be easy to pack the swimming bag and run out the door with it when we need it.

Above the bench I’m going build a hook rack that goes all the way around the closet. Why use a hanger when you can use a hook? So much easier, don’t you think? In fact I think I will do two rows of hooks, one that the kids can reach and one up higher that Stranger and I can use. These will be great for coats, sweaters, backpacks, purses, hats, etc.

I have many projects that need finishing but I think this is one I can accomplish in 30 days, it will be oh so useful and it won’t cost a lot of money. Thanks for the challenge Laura!!!
