Joanna Gaines Just Released a Picture Frame That's Secretly a Genius Storage Hack – It’s Perfect for Hiding Ugly Household Essentials

There's nothing better than decor that does two things at once. An ottoman that lifts open to reveal inner storage, a bedframe with drawers built into its sides – multifunctional decor is always a win, especially when you are tight on space, as I am in my New York apartment.

So, you can imagine my excitement when I came across the Willa Framed Wall Cabinet in Magnolia's new collection – boasting an exceptionally practical design that's so much more than just a styling moment.

Although it looks like an unassuming picture frame at first glance, this framed wall cabinet opens up to reveal two interior shelves. It's a hidden storage idea that's as sneaky as it is practical. This framed wall cabinet combines decorative appeal with the utmost functionality, allowing you to style your walls and increase your home's storage, all at the same time.

Aside from the usefulness of this storage cabinet-turned-wall decor idea, this feels like a timeless piece. Hand-carved from mango wood, the frame itself looks as stunning as a one-of-a-kind flea market find. There's a vintage-inspired charm to it as well, from its decoratively carved frame to the textured grain of the wood. Even if it wasn't a storage idea, I'd probably want to buy this frame anyway – to add rich character to my walls. But the fact that it opens to reveal inner storage makes this framed wall cabinet that much more appealing.

There's no limit to the styling possibilities for this piece – treat it as you would any other picture frame and hang it wherever you like. However, I think this frame-cabinet duo could be incredibly practical as an entryway wall decor idea – use it to hide your keys, wallet, and other small necessities in plain sight. Or, hang it in your small bedroom to decorate the space while simultaneously increasing storage. It could even become a tasteful addition to your home's gallery wall – adding character, depth, and hidden shelves to the scene.

It boasts only 5-star reviews on Magnolia's site. 'I'm completely obsessed with this cabinet!' one reviewer writes. 'It looks beautiful. Is perfectly functional. You can change the art whenever you want. It's a statement piece. Never thought I'd say that about a medicine cabinet!' It doesn't get more complementary than that.

Leave it to Joanna Gaines to create the most clever storage solution that doubles as vintage-inspired wall art. And lucky for us, her characterful wall storage designs don't stop there.
