Makeshift Mudroom



I have spent a lot of time staring at this entryway furniture from my Pottery Barn catalog. Everytime the catalog comes in, I've looked at the picture and wondered where I could make such a set up work in our house. We don't have a mudroom. Once I figured an area where it could work, I got real and thought about cost. I couldn't justify spending $550 (plus $60 S&H)--not including cushion and baskets. But then I came across this unpainted pine version at Target. At the time of my purchase, Target offered an additional 15% off total purchase and free shipping. I spent $255! I then spent $25 on paint and $23 for fabric/cushion. I got the baskets at Michael's at 50% off. I saved $260 and think the end result is pretty cute.


Pin It!
