I finally filled the empty space where our Christmas tree was. Each year when I decorate for the holidays, I lament over where to put the tree. Because everything is arranged differently than the year before. (And in this case, we were in a new home!) So, I rearranged everything to fit the tree(s), but after Christmas I like where the furniture had been moved to so much, that I didn't want to move them back.
So, fiiiiinally I figured out what to do in our front entryway. Make a correspondance center! It will be where I get packages ready to mail, and organize bills according to importance. I think it fills the space quite nicely, and might even lure me into taking a peak into those pesky student loan envelopes. :)
See the setup at Apartment Therapy too!

Nice. You're rocking a dress I found! And you're wearing red and green and it doesn't look Christmasy. Now that's an accomplishment!

Ooh I love that desk! And a correspondence center is such a great idea - I wish we had space to dedicate to that.
Btw - I totally had that Dear Golden hat in my Etsy favorites and was so heartbroken when it was snatched up almost right away! Now I know who the culprit is!!! :) Well, it looks charming on you, at least, so I can't be too upset....

Hi Shara,
My desk chair was found at the Habitat ReStore. It's vintage, and I got it for $5! What a steal, right?
