We have a small “landing” by our side door. “Landing” is being generous, it’s really a large step. Due to its size, and our need for organization, I find myself sitting on said step and staring at the walls and banisters around me. I’m aware that this sounds as if I need help and I do. I need help figuring out what to purchase and what will work.

I purchaed the frame from Michaels and spray painted it navy. The matting is scrapes of fabric that came from some tablecloths I purchased at Ross. The coatrack came from Hobby Lobby and I purchased it when it was half off. I belive it was $10.00. It was my answer to this concern. [...]
