If your entryway is too small for a coat rack or your shoe closet is already full to bursting, a wall hook can be just what you need—they're just usually not the most elegant of features. But you don't have to sacrifice style for function: There’s a five-hook wall piece going on viral on TikTok (3 million views kind of viral), and for good reason.

The Umbra Picket Wall Hook is a series of wooden pegs that lays flat against your wall. When it’s not in use, it looks like a minimalist art piece. But when you’ve got a coat that needs hanging or a hat that doesn’t fit in your closet, you can simply flip a peg down to turn it into a hook. 

Once you’re done using the hook, just flip it back up—effortlessly turning it from storage to statement piece you can add to any entryway, bathroom, closet, or mudroom. Each comes with five flip-down storage pegs, which can hold up to 5 pounds each for your everyday household items like towels, coats, hats, and keys. Umbra adds in its description of the product that you can even use it to store kitchen tools (aka finally a convenient place to hang your apron) or display jewelry.

Choose from four different colors to go with any color scheme—plus this allows you to hang multiple and switch it up from room to room: Get one in natural wood, white, black, and/or aged walnut. Each piece shows the grain and wood variation for a custom, natural feel.

The hook retails for an affordable price, but since Umbra already knows you’ll probably want more than one, you can bundle two or more and save. Fans are purchasing several to line up across an entire entryway, creating a statement piece that gives them even more storage.

And you don't have to worry about the installation process—each wall
