Thank you Martha!

I have been drooling over all of the mudroom/entryway organization posts lately on the web.  Problem is, I don't have a mudroom.  We have a lovely house, but that's just the one and only feature we ain't got.  So I had to improvise.  Along with the drooling over ideas, I am not officially sick and tired of vacuuming, sweeping and mopping 5,000 times a week. Hence the "No shoes in the house rule as of 1/17/11."

I have seen many beautiful pieces to go in a mudroom, but since we don't have a mudroom (I am using the garage) I had to be practical.  This is where Martha comes in.  I got these two great pieces from Home Depot plus the baskets for less than $170.00.  I know that seems like a lot of dough to pluck out, but compared to other items, I think this was one of the cheapest solutions for the space I have.  What do you think?
