Keeping it simple

Tweet

 

We all crave simplicity in our lives.  Being surrounded by so much drama at work and within our families we certainly don’t need any more on our plates.  One thing is for sure, to keep your home the “soft place to fall” that you need it to be…we need the spaces to be organized, tidy and beautiful

The entryway is a high traffic area that is often over looked.  If you think about the ways we use this space, potentially several times a day, it is amazing that it doesn’t have the same focus as the kitchens and bathrooms do.  We have to consider seasons in an entryway, putting away the old season and bring out the new… four times a year.  We have cel phones and iPod that all need charging; often they are a jumbled mess at the front or back door.  Imagine having a space to organize that mess.  We have to consider sports, mud, dirt and rain and how to keep it all at bay as much as we can.  Many of us have pets that also use the entryway on a regular basis.  Maybe there could be a space for them too?  We also want the space to be presentable when guests drop by.  Like I said, this space works HARD for us. 

Lets have a look at some fantastic mudroom and entry way ideas that may inspire you to make a change in your home.  What do you think of these mudrooms?  Would they work in your home?  Do you have ideas of your own to share?
