In parts of the world where there is winter, small foyers can be a real nuisance. Coats are big and poufy, boots are way bigger than shoes or sandals, and then there is the variety of hats, mitts and scarves on top of that. And might I mention the school backpacks too?

So how do you manage with a tiny foyer? First you have to be very selective about what to keep in this area, and of course more importantly, what not to keep. And then storage is key!
