Foyer/Stairwell Declutter

For some strange reason I enjoy embarrassing myself on my blog with before and afters I swear that I do not live in squallier

This is the catchall area at the front entrance of our home It is a mess, all the time Hubs jacket, a bag of Tupperware that I need to return to my friend, junk mail in the basket, my keys, an umbrella holder with everything but umbrellas, shoes, and much more I declutter it and it goes back to this all the time...

I got to my breaking point and took everything out of the hall

I decided that I needed a table for the foyer instead of the hanging thing and basket so it was on my list to find one on my travels for CHEAP... when I remembered that I had a beautiful drop leaf that belonged to my grandma in the attic I picked up this basket for 50 cents at the thrift shop and painted it to match my custom made coat hanger on the wall I also

added a primitive tag that reads JUNK on one side and MAIL on the other

So here it is... all nice and neat I love the basket print that my MIL gave me for Christmas one year You can probably see my Le Sport Sac hanging on the rack... I bought it for 10 bucks at our shop All my grade school and high school days I wanted a Le Sport Sac but could never afford one so when this one came in I had to have it ...when it went on sale A paint job on the wall would be nice and a new area rug... but that will come in time For now it is neat and is staying that way so far...
