I came across this image in the January issue of Better Homes and Gardens and quickly became enamored with the warmth of the wooden chest that is used for extra storage. I adore the idea of using not only beautiful pieces in the home, but ones that can be quite practical also.
I could easily see myself storing the kiddos art supplies here...
Extra linens or board games would hide away nicely here...
This piece could hold all my seasonal decor, extra serving dishes, the kiddos toys, or whatever else my heart so desires.
With the new year almost upon us I always feel an urgency to purge and reorganize. Of course the added goodies that always come with the Christmas season makes finding extra space a must. I am not one for clutter and like to be rather minimal so any of the above pieces could make my small home live large. Now to find a small piece like one of these for my entry way.

I have a credenza in my living room that holds absolutely everything and it's pretty- I love a piece that's practical and fabulous! Great post my dear.

I just picked up the BHG yesterday and particularly loved this article. Gorgeous office.

Thank you ever so much for posting my entryway! I am honored to be included in your blog. Gotta love a good knotty pine piece :)
Storage is most definitely key to any space. But its great when storage looks good. Thanks for posting this.

You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something that I think I
would never understand. It seems too complex and extremely broad for me.
I am looking forward for your next post, I will
try to get the hang of it!

May I just say what a relief to discover somebody who really knows what they're discussing online. You actually realize how to bring a problem to light and make it important. More and more people have to look at this and understand this side of your story. It's surprising you aren't more popular since you most certainly possess the gift.
Here is my web blog my response
You've made some really good points there. I looked on the web For More info about the issue and found most people will go along with your views on this site.
I drop a leave a response each time I especially enjoy a article on a site or I have something to contribute to the discussion.
It's caused by the fire displayed in the article I read. And on this article "Lovely Pieces". I was actually excited enough to drop a comment :-) I do have a couple of questions for you if it's allright.
Is it just me or does it give the impression like some of the responses look as if they are coming from
brain dead folks? :-P And, if you are posting at additional online sites, I would
like to keep up with everything new you have to post. Would you make a list the complete urls of your community pages like your Facebook
page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?
