    Unique and Imaginative Wall Storage Ideas
    Copyright © 2004, Pamela Cole Harris

    Everyone can use more organization in their lives (except those 
    misguided souls who alphabetize their spices, canned goods and 
    color-coordinate their laundry supplies!). Additional wall 
    storage can help bring that organization into your home. And 
    original and  unusual wall storage ideas can help organization 
    become décor pizzazz!  Here are some ideas to get you started:
    
    
    1. If you have old fruit crates or soda pop crates, attach them 
       to the wall to become a wonderful storage unit to display 
       books or knicknacks. You can paint the units to match your 
       décor or leave the original labels and wood to create a 
       rustic and unusual centerpiece of your room.
    
    
    2. Do you have an old garden bench or one of those wooden 
       benches which are frequently beside dining tables or in 
       entry halls? Try it attaching upside down on the wall. Use 
       the shelf created by the bench top to display collections. 
       Just think of using a white distressed bench as a shelf for 
       teddy bears in a child’s room.
    
    
    3. Old wooden hangers can make beautiful storage units for 
       jewelry, ties, and even shoes. Paint the hangers a solid 
       color and let dry. Then add decorative touches such as 
       hand-painted flowers or stripes. Or wrap the hangers with 
       strips of fabric using glue to adhere the strips to the 
       wood. When the hanger is completely wrapped, cover with a 
       decoupage finish. Attach to the wall with painted or plain 
       hooks.
    
    
    4. Want a wonderful idea for towel storage in a bathroom? Try 
       attaching a window box or planter to the wall and fill with 
       folded towels and washcloths, soaps or creams. Add trim and 
       paint to make a unique storage unit. 
    
    
    5. Need an easily accessible place to store your pots and pans? 
       Attach a narrow wrought iron curtain rod with decorative 
       finials to the wall. You can hang the pans from S-hooks 
       which have been hooked over the rod. A great idea!
    
    
    Use your own imagination to turn everyday objects into storage 
    areas. You might come up with the perfect solution to your 
    organization needs. Hmmm…any ideas for storing the 20 years 
    back issues of “Better Homes and Gardens”?
