The Perfect Mudroom

Hose-down Area

Whether you live in a rainy climate where dogs and kids track in mud, or near the beach where you're always sweeping up sand, a small shower stall in the mudroom can make life tidier. A ground-floor basin with a drain and a wall-mounted hand spray easily accommodate dirty boots, feet, and paws. Make sure to keep a stack of towels handy for drying off, and place boot trays nearby to hold wet footwear while it dries.
