Do you want a simple way to store and organize shoes in your front entry? This trendy, contemporary shoe cubby console provides easy shoe storage AND minimizes entryway clutter at the same time.
Its unique shape also provides several more advantages. If you want furniture that’s convenient, good-looking and affordable, I think you’ll like this piece.
Why are These Shoe Cubbies Better for Entryway Shoe Storage?
1. You Can Fit More Shoes in less Floor Space
Even though this open cubby cabinet can hold lots of shoes, it doesn’t doesn’t extend out from the wall much. In fact, it has a slim design that only measure 15.5″ deep.
As a result this entryway console works well in small foyers or even some hallways. In other words, you don’t need a lot space to store a lot of stuff.
The secret to more storage space is in the taller height. Many entryway cubbies act as benches and therefore sit quite low.
2. Second, this Front Entry Console Also Acts as a Table
This console, on the other hand, stands at table/counter height. So, you can take advantage of more vertical space that might otherwise go wasted.
In addition, the taller console can do “double duty” as an entry table. Use it for lamps, clocks, photos or other home decor. Plus, it provides the perfect spot to throw keys, purses, sunglasses, etc..
3. Multi-Size Cubbies Offer More Versatility
The top level on this unit features 4 double-size compartments for storing larger items. As a result, you can keep hots, purses, gloves, scarves and other bigger items.
Alternatively, you can get fabric storage baskets or woven grass baskets that work like pull-out drawers. These work well for stowing small things like phones, sunglasses, wallets, keys, etc..
I personally like baskets because they help to hide clutter and give cubbies a more “refined” appearance. Plus, they reduce the likelihood of losing small items when you have a designated spot for them.
Note: The lower back side of the console has 4″ tall notches to accommodate baseboards. This simple design fix helps the cabinet fit snugly against the wall so tiny items don’t fall down the crack. Not to mention, it just looks better.
4. You Can Use this Stylish Furniture All Over the House:
Besides using these cubbies next to the front door, you can also use it in a walk-in closet, a mudroom or the garage. It looks better than a shoe rack and can hold lots more than a shoe shelf.
Do you need 32 cubbies? Maybe not, but stopping kids from tracking dirt all over the house is priceless. Plus, guests can use them too.
DIY Cheap and Easy Mudroom Idea:
If you have the space, you may want to add a coat rack and/or a storage bench in your entry hall. Now, you’ll have an area for coats, umbrellas, backpacks, boots, etc..
Prepac makes coordinating furniture that make this do-it-yourself project easy. Plus, your home looks clean and inviting when you walk through the door.
