DIY Built-in Mudroom

Sometimes when I start a project, my vision for it changes along the way. For the most part, this DIY built-in mudroom project turned out pretty close to what I imagined. I combined a few different elements from the inspiration photos and put together a list of my must haves: moody paint, a stained bench, vertical planking, gold hooks, and the finishing touch – arches! While I debated doing open or closed lockers, I figured the extra step to open the lockers and hang a backpack wouldn’t work well for my kids. So I went with open dividers and I love the way it turned out!

I’m sharing with you all the steps I followed to create a DIY built-in mudroom for my kids (and myself!) in our house.
