Week 2 Challenge - "The Launch Pad"

Time for the 2nd challenge from over at A Bowl Full of Lemons which is to create a launch pad. 

I'm thankful for this challenge because this is an area I've really struggled with in our house due to the fact that our main entrance is our kitchen.  There is no place for coats, shoes, purses, hats, etc.  We are constantly battling things just being thrown in this area.  Not only is it our entrance - it is totally in view of everyone that pulls up to our house and it often does not give a good impression. 

So, I have a few ideas I've been working/thinking about and I'm pretty sure I won't get them all done this week so instead my goal is going to be to come up with my plan for what I'm going to do; show you pictures of the things I'm going to implement and than, once I finish painting our kitchen, I'll show you the final product a little later this year.  For this project, I've had to think outside the box and have scoured websites, blogs, and magazines to find ways to practically have an entryway when you don't have one!! 

So, check back later this week for pictures of what I am able to do and the ideas I have to do soon!
