BACK ENTRY TRANSFORMATION!
Oh hey, old space, new setup… I think I’m obsessed with you!
All the summer supplies at our finger tips & organization for everything we need coming in the back door with three, wet & dirty boys this summer! If you have kids, you know that anything can happen once you send them out that door. Our laundry room is just around the corner from here, but I realized we needed a place with quick access to wipes, sunscreen, towels, bug spray, band-aids, and so much more! The first time I brought them in wet and muddy, I knew I had to make a change! One that would ensure we weren’t dragging all the outside elements and bodily fluids over the carpet, ha!
I also placed some pretty accessories on the top shelves that also serve a purpose. The very top shelf, houses items that we use on our outdoor dining table just outside this door. The other wood bowl, holds our keys and sunglasses! Everything below, is kid accessible.
Below I’ve compiled your entire shopping list and total cost for this project! So easy, and so budget friendly!

One side of this shelving unit did not line up with a stud. I used these metal wall anchors on the side without the stud for security. You won’t need a pack of 100, so go to your local hardware store and buy them individually! Much more cost friendly! I went to Ace Hardware.
$.50/piece - TOTAL: $1.50
