6. Open Cubby Grid with Natural Seagrass Bins
What This Idea Means
Open grid cubbies offer a structured structure for mudroom storage, but exposed clutter can disrupt the cozy feel. Pairing open cubbies with fitted natural seagrass or water hyacinth woven bins allows for easy sorting of spring accessories while adding rich, earthy textures to the room.
How to Make It
Assemble or build a multi-cubby shelving unit against your main mudroom wall. Measure the interior dimensions of the cubbies carefully and purchase woven storage baskets that fit snugly within each compartment, leaving just an inch of clearance for smooth sliding.
Tips and Variations
- Labels: Tie small chalkboard or wood-cut tags to each basket handle for easy categorization (e.g., “Dog Leashes,” “Rain Gear,” “Gardening”).
- Mixed Storage: Leave one or two cubbies open for display items like folded lightweight throws or ceramic bowls.
