A $7 IKEA Wall Pocket Doubles as Entryway Book Storage
The writer used IKEA's new GREJIG Wall Pocket, a $7 steel wall-mounted organizer, to store books in an entryway. The open-wire, bright-blue pocket measures about 22 7/8 inches wide, 11 inches tall, and 6 3/4 inches deep. It is designed for magazines, shoes, hats, and mail and is part of a larger matching collection.
The GREJIG Wall Pocket is a new steel organizer from IKEA. Its wire frame has a vivid blue powder-coated finish. It measures about 22 7/8 inches across, 11 inches high, and 6 3/4 inches deep, and costs $7. IKEA suggests it for magazines, shoes, hats, and mail; it is also part of a coordinated line that includes shoe racks and wall grids.
The article’s writer mounted one in an entryway to display books, relying on upright space rather than a conventional bookshelf. The item is described as available in stores only for now, so shoppers may need to verify local stock or call ahead. Separate screws are required for installation.
This inexpensive, vertical storage idea may appeal to renters, small-home dwellers, and entryway organizers seeking affordable ways to display books or daily items. It could encourage more people to treat functional zones as decor, perhaps influencing how budget retailers market modular, colorful storage. Because it is in-store only and requires mounting hardware, its reach may be limited to shoppers with nearby IKEA access and willingness to install it.
