mudroom fix-up

This is what I had in mind when we built our mudroom.
Straight out of Pottery Barn.
Unfortunately, this is what our mudroom looks like.
A complete eyesore. Bags, toys & stuff piled everywhere!
Seriously. I did not "prep" it to look this bad.
So I went to work. I cleared off everything & added these baskets
to help organize the smaller things.
I made individual label tags to help me remember
where I stashed everything.
I decorated the top with knick knacks that I found around the house, including the moss balls I made a few weeks ago.
And voila! Sooo much better! Now if only I can keep it looking this good.
I added an extra bucket on the bench with high hopes of throwing random things in it, rather than letting it collect on the bench. Wish me luck!

  1. Stopping by from the Met Monday party!! I totally understand what you mean about trying to keep it that way. Mine will look good until the boys and hubby comes home!!! This looks great and I must say I like your black one better than the white inspiration!! I really like the labels. I need to do that in our laundry room!
