A space where you can peel off wet clothes & outdoor footwear and towel down a muddy dog before you enter the house properly is a really useful area. This rustic boot room is more than up to that job!

The walls and splash-back are painted in an easy-to-clean brilliant white eggshell. The sink is an up-cycled farm animal drinking trough; and is the perfect size for home-owner, Emma to give her border terrier, Sadie a quick bath. The sink stand and counter top are also made from re-purposed materials – old scaffolding boards.

Nosy chicken is optional!

We need to create ourselves a space in our house where we move from ‘dirty’ to ‘clean’… outdoors to indoors; this boot & storage room is the kind of thing we’re aiming to achieve.

It’s the place where we’d change out of our wet coats and muddy wellies into our tent mules and fluffy jumpers. It’s also the ideal area to hang bags-for-life, umbrellas, rucksacks, dog leads & poo bags and to store overflow firewood for the stoves.

Katie’s boot room has been ingeniously created using upcycled used apple crates (she credits her dad with making them). We already use apple crates as storage in our kitchen, and have a ready supply from a local hardware store.

Do you have a boot & storage room? What do you keep in there?
