yet another room (nearly) finished in the new casa!
basically i was beyond ready to have this space complete. i am a big supporter of not having any papers on the refrigerator. all my girls' school papers and sports schedules were hanging from the frig and it was driving me batty. when we dreamed of this space i knew i wanted it to be crazy functional and a spot where things could be hidden in a tidy-like manor. so this is what i came up with...
the mud room tour, folks!
these two images are what you see when you look from the dinning room into the hallway to the garage door. the double doors on the right are my pantry (and you couldn't pay me money to open them and show you right now... they are also on the "find calm out of chaos" list as well.
my hubs made me the awesome arrows and i got the frame at goodwill for $1 and the "hello" chipboard from america's greatest store, hobby lobby for $2. The metal hanging basket is an Ikea find.

originally purchased the metal Ikea wonderfulness to be on our kitchen back-splash but i love it here more!
below is the wall across from our coat/shoe cubbies. the command board is a big board that my hubby routed lines in to mimic the look of shiplap. he then framed it with trim we purchased at the Habitat for Humanity Restore for $1/8ft piece.
the medium sized clothes pins are also from the most fabulous store on earth, hobby lobby.

here's the view from the garage door looking in. every family member has their own coat/backback hook and drawer for their shoes, amen.
the door at the end of the cubbies goes out to our backyard. we also have a sliding glass door off of our dining room but figured it would be nice to have another door into our mud room. i've been happy it's been there!

and you may be thinking, "man her mud room is mudless and clean!"
that's probably because I just cleaned it because i was blogging it today. this place is usually filled with mud.. hence the name mud room. =)

my hubby is not a fan of the "bless this house" circle sign.. but I loved it. =) it's a bit of updated country and it's colorful so it's a win in my book.

-and there you have it! another room (basically) complete. i'm trying not to decorate this house too quickly because I LOVE the process of making it look homey and for it to feel like "us". =)
