Holy buckets! This post has been a long time in the making, and I'm so glad it's time to finally share with you! If you've been following for awhile you know that I have been wrestling with my stairwell design, but not just wrestling in the winning sort-of-away, but the kind where you're on the losing side and you're pinned down in a choke hold on the verge of blacking out.

Hey budz. The entryway progress continues slowly but surely! Our house has a lot of good things going for it, but one of the things it doesn't have is a coat closet. Instead it has this really large (in proportion to our house) entryway that doesn't serve a whole lot of purpose.
