I use it for adding some seasonal cheer at the entrance that we use most, and for muddy shoes of course, but that’s about it..I dream of filling it up with built-ins and hooks and benches and all that goodness sometime in the future, but for now what we have is a little drop zone inside our kitchen..I love looking at the boring functional parts of peoples’ houses so I thought I’d show you ours today!.

Chris installed this wall o’ hooks pretty quickly after we moved in here last Summer.. It’s the perfect place to casually hang your beach bag after a day in the sun.. Or grab your purse on the way out the door to go shopping..The bench is a great place to keep your mosaic lantern handy.. Of course, it’s always good to have a bucket of burlap ready to go for when you need to head out to the garden and wrap your hedges in the Fall and Winter..

Sometimes I like to be able to fill up a carafe with water without having to walk.
