When I’ve been trying to find organizing ideas for my small rental, pegboards always come up all over my TikTok and Insta feeds.
They’re so great for small spaces, as you can lean them against the wall (or hang them up if your landlord is chill) and hang up lots of different items at once. This means you can save on desk space and closet space — which I know is oh-so-precious when you haven’t got much room.
I’ve spent a lot of time on socials (whew, my job can be hard) and found the most gorgeous images of pegboards in people’s homes. I’m officially converted to this, and I have so much pegboard items in my basket RN.
Ready to get on board with this organization idea? Scroll on down for serious inspo…
I love a wooden pegboard — it just looks so easy and breezy, and is super sturdy too. Having a pegboard in the hallway is a great way to create a ‘hub’ for organizing coming and going from the home. You can hang up keys, calendars, and shopping lists, so you never lose track of what you need when you’re running out the door.
There are so many reasons to add plants to the decor in your home. They’re colorful, eco-friendly, and improve the air quality. I love my plants, but I’m an awful plant mom, so I’m loving the idea of having them all together, to make them easy to see and therefore water. It’s super clever how @Joycieteh has used a mixture of different plants in varying heights, lengths, and textures, as this draws the eye to various areas of the pegboard.
Okay — I am living for the rainbow coordination on this board by @heyletsmakestuff. She has used four IKEA pegboards to create one big display, with lots of little fittings that hold a variety of different shaped items. The smaller shelves, hooks, and wire hangers all fit snugly onto the board, and are strong enough to hold a good amount too.
I’m forever running out of room for pots and pans, and just don’t have the budget to buy endless kitchen trolleys. This is why I’m loving this organized kitchen pegboard, which is super budget-friendly and renter-friendly. It also utilizes the existing space really efficiently. You could go for a huge display pegboard like the one in this TT, or even go for a smaller one to hang up utensils or li'l containers.
There’s nothing stylish about tools. Well, that’s what I used to think, before I laid eyes on this cute board by @bossybrushstrokes. This idea could be great in your garage if you have one, or in your spare room, so you don’t lose track of paint brushes, pens, and scissors. I totes hate that feeling of being in the DIY mood, then losing all motivation after spending too much time looking for things.
