Saturday! HAPPY SATURDAY!!! Weird blogging on a Saturday as I usually blog M- F but this last week has been a rough one. From down family members weighing on my heart to doctors appointments for Mark & I..& everything in between! Mark was recently diagnosed with a high thyroid that was causing a few issues & well my ongoing autoimmune/ vestibular issues, it's been HECTIC pals! I decided after a crazy week with many downs that I needed a cozy fall night with a pal...after a zillion errands first of course ha! I lit a candle amongst the mess, made homemade chili, put a playlist on & OPENED THE PAINT haha..Can you guess where this is going? Yup, another DIY!! This is something I've been wanting to do for SO long!.......
• Achieve this LOOK •
. Remove closet door{s}
. Paint the inside of the closet { your choice}
. Hang/ add essentials- coat rack, bench etc..
. Add storage- baskets, tags, bins etc..
. Decorate & enjoy!
** I had this bench in storage..which worked perfect as a sitting area + it has a bunch of storage for shoes & boots!
I'm so glad I finally completed this little DIY to our home. It adds so much cozy charm, plus it's super practical/ useful! If we're being honest, this closet used to be dark, dirty, unused & cold! Now it definitely will be used for fall & especially winter..coming soon!
I used a lot of things I had in storage. Few items I did pick up was this rustic coat rack for $6, some bins to match for $8 & some $7 tags to add more cozy charm..Oh & so Mark knows where his hats are hahaha.
I always have a vague idea of what I want a space to look like before going ham on it..This space I wanted super warm, textured & fall-ish with that hint of vintage New England feel! Some Sperry boots, rustic tin can filled with fall foliage, & oversized cozy chunky pillows..Oh & a vintage gun { non working }. Of course I had to add some mini pumpkins too.
The pillows are from HomeGoods & Target, foliage the same & tin was a gift!
This space came together so nicely & in under 5 hours!! I love that it's a useable space now..Our entryway isn't huge but a decent space & this closet is pretty deep, which worked nice for the bench & being able to actually "walk-in" & be able to sit & put winter gear on. The final touch was the - Stay Awhile- from Hearth & Hand!
I hope you liked this DIY that you could easily achieve too.
•Do you have a MUDROOM or drop zone in your home?
