Entry Landing Strips for Inspiration

The Every Girl
I've been digging around for inspiration for my upcoming apartment landing strip project. (I'll be working on putting it together this weekend!) I love the wall hooks on the one above. While I like the idea of a vase of flowers, I just know that I'd knock it off while putting my coat on or hanging up my purse.

A boot tray would be ideal to protect my hardwood floors from gross winter sludge and ice salt. I'm also smitten with the idea of a big piece of wall art - like the above train / subway sign!


At Home At Home
If only I had an Ikea nearby (or shipping weren't so dang expensive). I adore cubbies for storage. Plus, the unit isn't too deep - perfect for small spaces in a hallway.

This one is simple, functional, and chic. The variety of prints and vintage photographs is cute, too.


Pink Wall Paper









I LOVE this landing strip - especially the owl umbrella holder! Maybe I need to add some pink and a mirror to mine.


Lots of Layers
Hanging bags lower to the floor is a neat concept - it works particularly well with the the box shelf hung above it. Great place to stash mail, an umbrella, etc.


One Kings Lane
This landing strip has a bit more going on than I want in my entry, but it's so glamorous that I had to share it! Maybe someday when I have a bigger apartment and more space... A girl can dream. :)

This is appealing. I like the simplicity, the black wall hooks, and the basket for newspapers.

This is similar to the setup I'm looking to set up. Chair? Check. Boot and shoe storage? Check. Mirror? Check. Hooks? Check. Place for mail and keys? Check and check.

I love the colorful hooks and long, sleek dresser in this entry. The rug is fabulous, too.


Which one is your favorite?

DIY Cat Barrier for Under $100 (See-Through, Climb-Proof, and Too-Tall-To-Jump)

ICYMI: I gave up Cotton after deciding that after trying so many things, my two adopted cats Dahlia and Cotton were just never going to get along. Long story short: I missed her. And Cotton's back. And Dahlia's not going anywhere. My heart is big enough to keep trying. And my apartment is big enough that if I need to keep them separated long term (or permanently), it can be done.
I'm going to write-up a separate post about some of the solutions I've tried, how they worked, who they worked on, and what I'll be trying next. But in this post, I wanted to share the main 'piece de resistance' of having both cats in my apartment: an un-climbable, un-jumpable, see-through barrier to separate Cotton and Dahlia.

Blair's Room | Gossip Girl Decor

Manhattan's debutante Blair Waldorf happens to be my favorite Gossip Girl character.  Her behavior and feelings vary from snobbish to sensitive, but she always (except for a few rare occasions) looks and acts totally pulled together.  Her luxurious bedroom is fit for a queen---and is as pulled together as her preppy fashion ensembles.
