Holiday home hallway

 For those of you with holiday homes, now is the time to get yourself organised for the next break away.   With a constant stream of towels, hats, jackets and beach paraphernalia, the beach house hallway is more in need of an effective transfer station than most rooms.

At the risk of repeating myself…hooks and baskets are always the answer!

For groovy hooks with character scour your local antique shops or check out Anthropologie for these sweet vintage style ones.  If you don’t have any wall space then Pottery barn have a gorgeous over the door hook option…see below.

The other essential item for orgainsing is a good looking, sturdy basket or bag.  If your carry bags are beautiful, then wherever they end up (hallway, kitchen table, lounge room floor…) will continue to look nice.

Pottery barn have these great hessians bags…really multipurpose pieces that will hold your beach stuff or your firewood!

Equally multifunctional,  market baskets can do anything you need.  www.iwanthomewares.com.au  has a variety of sizes and leather colours.

So get motivated and get yourself a system.  If the answer is always the same to “Muuum, where’s the…?”  then maybe you’ll stop hearing it quite so often!
