I’ve had enough of the visual chaos of my metal shoe rack, so I’m upgrading to this $99 flash deal on a slim and tidy rattan closet for my tiny entryway

My messy open storage worked for a while but it’s time for a fresh look

In my tiny entryway, there isn’t enough space to even put on your coat, so any storage items have to really work hard.

For a while, my tall metal shoe rack worked, but now it’s time to pivot to closed storage, as the visual clutter of all our shoes annoys me every time I see it. That’s why I am grabbing this $99 half price flash deal on a Wayfair slimline closed rattan storage unit, which fits perfectly in my small hallway.

It’s a great small entryway storage idea as it has concealed shelving, a gap underneath for convenient but not prescribed organizing, and a top surface that can be used for additional lighting or a place to pop our keys and mail. For such a compact unit, it really packs a punch.

I’m not the only one in love with this unit, with average ratings levelling out at 4.5/5. One anonymous, but verified Wayfair shopper gave it five stars, adding, ‘It is perfect for our “no storage” household! Its slim and cute appearance is perfect for our doorway!'

Another said, ‘Love this piece! It’s beautiful and was pretty easy to put together! I was able to fit about 12 pairs of shoes in it.’

The only thing left for me to do is organize my shoes and get busy selling or donating the surplus ahead of my fall decluttering jobs.
