Creative Alternatives
You don't have to sacrifice style in a utilitarian space. This coatrack made of large sewing spools hammered into a painted board makes a clever alternative to traditional hooks. To minimize how much dirt gets tracked throughout the house, the owner of thiscolorful Texas home corrals her family's boots in this copper tray.

White-Washed Wall Space
The owners of this renovated 1950s fishing shack closed off an extra door (originally to the right of the front door) to make extra wall space to hang jackets, bags and hats. To protect the wooden floors from wet, muddy feet, the owners added a layer of recycled tire flooring just inside the front door.

Space-Efficient Workspace
A full-size front-loader washer and dryer stack to save space in this laundry room. The nifty beadboard drying rack by Ballard Designs tips out to offer rungs for wet clothes without monopolizing floor space. Bright idea: Camouflage an industrial hamper (on wheels to save your back) with an appealing—and washable—tie-on fabric skirt.

Photo Finish
A mail-room cabinet, scored at a vintage shop, strikes an industrial note in the mudroom of this Oregon home. The owner snapped the cattle photo with her iPhone, printed it at Costco for six bucks, and popped it in a $20 Michaels frame. She painted the walls Big Chill by Sherwin-Williams.

Discreet Decor
This ironing board in this home folds up and slides neatly out of the way in a customized drawer when not in use. For a similar solution at less-than-custom prices, try an ironing cupboard, a shallow cabinet that holds a foldaway ironing board and supplies. Or use the simple over-the-door ironing board.

More than a Breezeway
The mudroom of our 2010 House of the Year marries personality—a cheery wallpaper that says welcome—with practicality: cabinets for storing coats, a table for holding mail, even a bench for pulling shoes on and off. Bright idea: Humble chicken wire adds subtle pattern and down-home texture to cabinet doors.
