Pegboard ideas worth stealing for your home

October 6, 2026

A pegboard is one of the simplest ways to bring order to a small space. Hang it, fill it, rearrange it as life changes. Here are two ways to put IKEA's SKÅDIS system to work in rooms that need it most.

Turning a wardrobe into an organised display

A deep wardrobe or built-in cupboard often hides more than it helps. Fitting a SKÅDIS pegboard to the inside wall changes that completely, turning flat, wasted space into a proper home for accessories. Hooks hold bags, scarves and belts in view, while a MULIG clothes rack alongside gives extra hanging room without needing a bigger wardrobe altogether.

For smaller items, SKÅDIS containers and SKÅDIS containers with lids clip straight onto the board, keeping jewellery, sunglasses or hair accessories sorted and easy to reach. Even shoes can be hung from the hooks rather than piled on the floor. It is a practical fix for the narrow wardrobes typical of Maltese apartments and townhouses, where every centimetre of storage needs to earn its keep.

Keeping a compact bathroom tidy and calm

Bathrooms in Maltese homes are often snug, with little room for freestanding furniture, which makes wall space especially valuable. A SKÅDIS pegboard mounted above the sink or behind the door creates instant storage without taking up floor space. Add a SKÅDIS storage basket for rolled towels or toiletries, and a SKÅDIS shelf or SKÅDIS display shelf to hold everyday essentials within easy reach.

For those who prefer not to drill into tiles, the SKÅDIS freestanding peg board offers the same flexibility while standing on its own. SKÅDIS connectors let several boards join together to form a larger SKÅDIS pegboard combination if more space is needed later. It all means toothbrushes, hairdryers and bits and bobs can have a fixed spot, however humid or cramped the room.
