I gave my mudroom a makeover – I’m a boy mom and was sick of the clutter, my locker design made it so much better
A BOY mom gave her mudroom a makeover after getting sick of looking at all the clutter.
She said the DIY project may have taken a bit of time but makes the space look so much better.

The full-time mom and doctor explained she had been unhappy with the mess in her hallway for a while and decided to take matters into her own hands.
“I was so sick of seeing the visual clutter from our family of 6 in this mudroom so I added doors to each of these lockers,” she said.
The room initially consisted of just a granite bench and a floating shelf but the mom had the genius idea of adding lockers into the wall.
She took down the shelf and built the lockers around the bench, measuring out equal distances to have six different cubbies sectioned in.
“I built six of them, one for each person in our family, and painted everything Cracked Pepper by Behr,” she revealed.
Although the function of the mudroom was instantly improved, she felt she still needed to add one more touch to hide the clutter.
“I knew I needed to close these off and have doors so I ordered these from the Cabinet Door store,” she said.
“I painted, prepped all of these, installed them all with soft closed hinges, and it’s already so much better.
Even though the project took a few months, she said it was all worth it: “Started in January and here we are now!”
People took to the comments to share their thoughts on her mudroom makeover.
“Looks amazing, love the color!” said one viewer.
“Wow! That looks amazing!” said another.
