The Front Entry gets Some Class

The entry way has needed some sprucing up for awhile.  I created a mail holder which has decreased the clutter but not eliminated it. I still wanted coat hooks and and shoe rack.

this was the current state:

Then I added the shoe rack. I can tell that I do not use this entrance a lot because I only have ridiculous shoes here. The rest are Andrew's.

I had spent some time looking for a mirror and come up short, but I had some pictures that I also thought would look nice but not everything could fit. So that decided it for me and, honestly, I get sick of making decisions, so that I ok with me.

And for the final touch I put the shoes back on, a jacket and an umbrella

The top picture has my address on it, Rachel created it for me out of math related objects, its pretty sweet.

So I am loving this because it is in the living room so I do see it, even if I am not 'using' it.  Now, if only the walls had trim....
