What Is In the Hidden Closet Under My Foyer Staircase

March 30, 2017 · By Diane Henkler · 196 Comments

Last month I revealed how Ed and I enclosed the area under the open staircase in our foyer with a hidden door to create a closet. What I didn’t show you was what we store inside the new closet under the staircase.

I am revealing it today to help celebrate the 18th birthday of Swiffer.  You read that right, Swiffer, the newfangled mop that swept the nation by storm in 1999 is 18 years old.

My new closet is where I keep my cleaning tools. I used to store them in my laundry closet, but they were hard to get to. I moved them to the new hidden closet where they are very easy to grab when needed.

Do you remember the humorous Swiffer commercials back in 1999?  I do… and more about when Swiffer came into homes across the nation.

I probably have a more vivid memory of the launch than most of us because I remember my mom who loved to bring my siblings and I gifts and goodies when she visited bought me a Swiffer when they first came out on the market. I fondly remember her walking into my house pushing a Swiffer along the floor and doing a little dance. She thought it was the best cleaning invention ever.

She loved to dance and would have enjoyed attending the 18th birthday bash in NYC earlier this month where Dancing With the Stars, Maksim Chmerkovskiv danced with a blinged-out Swiffer.

Blinged out Swiffers are one of a kind, but over the past 18 years Swiffer has added more products to their line. All of them make cleaning floors and more… easy and even fun.

To organize the cleaning tools in my closet I attached a painted board horizontally to the wall and added hooks along it to hang my cleaning tools.

Swiffer handles were designed to be hung to make storing a breeze.

Storage ideas in a hidden closet

On the wall to the left of the closet door I placed an old shelving unit with a broken back to hold refills for the mops, vac and dusters.  We also created a charging station on the two lower shelves to charge all the batteries for all our cordless tools.

One is for the Swiffer Vac.

On the right side of the closet is where I have my ironing board, vacuum and broom. I use the broom outside to sweep my front porch. The turquoise desk and saddle-holding horse are being stored here until my daughters have room in their own homes for them.

Looks like the top of the desk could use a little Swiffering. :-)

If you would like to see how we created this closet you can find all the details in this post: How To Add a Closet Under a Staircase With a Hidden Door

I may not put my dancing shoes on when I clean, but I do love that with Swiffer, you can live in a clean house without spending your life cleaning it. I also love how easily I can store all my Swiffer’s in my closet under the staircase.

    I would love all the Swiffer loves to check out Norwex mop system, enviro wand and other reusable microfiber products. Norwex solutions save you time and money (buy once and reuse vs purchasing refills and solutions) – plus they are healthier for you, your family and environment. Microfiber products, used with water, means no chemical left behind on your floors. No streaks (after you get the chemical build up removed). Dries within seconds as well, as it’s just water! The microfiber will remove 99% of all bacteria as well! Check it out!

    I LOVE Swifter. I use to use the off brands and they always failed me. With a dog and a cat that both shed endlessly, i tried swifter one day and never looked back. They are superb. I need to swifter my whole downstairs wood floors and all my wood blinds. It’s been quite a while for the blinds.

    Since I am in the middle of a large kitchen reno, my kitchen of course could use a good clean in the end, but since I had to tear down walls I was not expecting to (hidden junction boxes thanks to the old owner), etc., my entire home is one big drywall dust disaster. Help me Swiffer it all away. Please.

We have 2 large rescue dogs and 6 rescue cats, so tiles were the best floor covering when we remodeled. Super easy clean up too. I have a Roomba also, his name is Rover. He does a great job, but I always Swiffer after he is done.

    My hallway is where the dust collects, every five minutes. My kitchen is a drop down kitchen, meaning you come down two steps into my kitchen. From my kitchen I can see the hallway/foyer at all times of the day as the light filters through the front door all the way down the hallway. The dust collects there and its been a thorn in my side from day one! I would love to have something to deal with it on a daily basis besides my hands and knees!!

I would love to try the swifter in our tiled kitchen and family room since this is where the dog spends most of her time. Its probably a combined 600 square feet and i am curious how many pads i would have to go through to pick up the dog’s “tumbleweeds’! Thanks for this giveaway!

    Hi, Diane,

    I’m envious of your great storage space.

    After seeing the number of people who have entered, I don’t have much hop. Everybody wants Swiffer prizes. You can see just from that, how popular they are!

    I could use it in EVERY room, but especially in the kitchen and bathroom to give the floors an easy wet mopping, and in the bedroom where my trusty shop vac just can’t go.

    I’m also trying to teach crochet in my home (one of my 4 jobs) and need something easy to give the living and dining room a quick once-over every morning.

    We have a big blowing dust problem in this area of Queens, NY. That and 2 cats equal problems that Swiffers are well-positioned to solve.

Because of the parking situation around here, we and everybody else, pretty much enter through the laundry room, which has a half bath on one side and enters the kitchen on the other side. This laundry area also houses our two miniature Dachshunds….one long haired and one short haired….see where this is going? It needs all the “Swiffering” it can get!

    Hi! I’ve never owned a Swifter but the commercial with the kids & dogs is definitely my house! Every time I see the commercial, I tell my husband “we should get this”. It would certainly control the extra “dog” we seem to get every 3-4 days (enough dog hair to make another dog!). Thank you for this!!

    I have almost all of the Swiffer products and use them in every room in our home. But until I saw your photos, there’s one place I never thought to use a Swiffer: on the windows! We have six ceiling-to-floor French doors and they very much need help from a Swiffer. Yea! to no more water running down my arms while washing the outside of the windows.

    I have used Swifter products for years and love them, but now that we have our house on the market I need more of them to keep handy in several areas of the house so I can do a quick dusting of furniture, floors, etc. when we have a last minute call to show the house to prospective buyers. It would be so much quicker to have them in several areas instead of having to run to the laundry room where I now have them stored. We live on a lake with lots of trees and pollen so dusting is almost a daily chore…if I know someone is coming in.

    I would also like to know how to get the big green gift box of Swifter products. I would like to leave one for the new owners…whenever that day comes.

I’ve even consider changing the polish to a matte fiinish to match the areas where dust has dulled down the shine. Swifter is my goto source for a quick fresh pick me up. I save so much time leaving the broom and mop behind. Swifter gives me instant statisfaction with a clean shine and fresh scent to my 5 miunte hurry and get it done chore. I’m dreaming of a clutter free closet where all my supplies are in once place. Fantastic job!

    My living room is cat fur and dust heaven.
    I use a Swiffer duster for all my ceiling fans.
    I live in Florida, where sand travels all on it’s own.
    Even with the doors and windows closed it still finds cracks to sneak in through.
    The wet mop Swiffer works wonderfully at collecting it.

    Ooh, your secret closet is super useful – well done. I would swiffer our open plan kitchen and sitting room. We have wood floors and two dogs, so the floor is often covered with dog hair! I love using Swiffer products, they are so easy! Thanks for the giveaway opportunity.

    I would have to use my Swiffer in my kitchen and dining room to gather up the dog hair. I have a Golden girl named Reese and foster puppy named Buddy right now and boy oh boy do I have fur flying.

    Hi, I love reading your blog. Lots of great ideas. I use swiffer products all the time. My favorite place to use them is the mud room. Always a mess cause we live in the mountains and haven’t done landscape since we moved in yet. Thank you and keep up the great blog.

    I love, love, love your hidden closet! Begging my brother to do one for me at my new house. Speaking of new house leads to moving and moving leads to unbelievable messes. So many tiny things to do to get my “old” house ready for selling. So much dust from everyday living and drywall dust and mud from the outdoors…………..not only do all the floors and furniture need “swiffering”, but the walls will need a “swiffering”, too. I would need several Swiffers and a truck load of refills!!

    Our living room, dining room, and office are one long room, that’where I would begin. We have hardwoods and area rugs in this space. Sign me to win this one.. I really need it. JudyC

    I have a white German Shepard and my wood floors need perpetual “swiffering”. Also in the process of putting a bathroom cleaning kit together for my grandkids to take over the cleaning of their bathroom and it will include Swiffer products…hmmm…maybe I need to wait till after the drawing…thanks Diane for all your great posts…I have learned so much from you!!!

    I can never seem to stay on top of cleaning and need for all my rooms but would love to use in my open concept house so my kitchen great room and dining area can go from being one big dusty area top one big clean area!

    Love what you’ve done by enclosing the stairway. It looks like it was always meant to be that way! You and your husband are a terrific team!

    I anticipate that we will soon be removing the carpeting in our living/dining rooms and restoring the nearly one hundred year old wood floors. I think swiffer tools would just be the cat’s meow for this area!

    Er… um… ahem… every room in my house needs to be swiffered. We have a black lab who sheds like its her job! Love your posts and especially this wonderful room under the stairs. It looks like it’s always been there, which is the sign of a pro!

    Love this post! Thank you!
    I have two boys – ages 4 and 5…and, WOW!, are they messy. I would use the Swiffer products in my entry area near the front door, where they shed their dirty shoes and clothes. Shoes and clothes are easy enough (usually!) to throw in the washer. I need a DIRT MAGNET for the floor and the places they touch with their grimy hands!

    Your closet is awesome and so organized. As for Swifter, OMG I love the Swifter products. Dog hair is never an issue now that I’ve been using them. Our family room always needs a little Swiftering!!

    My living room could use some swiffering today. We are painting and just sanded all the spots that had been filled in with spackle.

    A good day for a swiffer if there ever was one!

    Oh Diane! What an awesome way to use the new storage space!
    I can’t believe Swiffer is 18!! I use them in every room but find them especially useful in my combo family room/office/dining room/kitchen. It’s one huge room all with laminate flooring…..and always seems to need a quick cleaning.
    Thanks for the giveaway. :)

    I have wood everywhere, so swiffering (can that be a word?!) is a dance I do often! Makes keeping things dust-free a breeze!

    We put in wood floors in 2015 and we have now become Swiffer-crazed at our house! We live in the country and the amount of dust and stuff is enormous and sweeping never ending. My husband is retired and spends much time keeping our floors clean. He could use the blinged-out Swiffer for a little added excitement! :)

    Hi Diane, love your blog!
    Certainly my kitchen and bathroom would be priorities, but I’d swiffer all over my fake-wood floored house! Floors are the hardest for me to get to, and I haven’t tried a swiffer.
