Summery Mudroom

Good Morning!  I hope everyone had a great weekend!  When I realized this weekend it was already August 1st, all I could think about is that our summer is quickly coming to an end.  And I'm just not ready yet.  Last year I was ready to get back to a routine, but this year we have had such a fun summer and I don't want it to end.  #endlesssummer  We do have one more vacation planned which I'm excited about, but after that it will be back to school mode :(

Anyways, one thing I love about summer is taking back our little mudroom area.  During the school year it is full of backpacks, lunchboxes, jackets, sports bags, etc.  But in the summer, I put all that stuff away and dress it up a bit.

 

This mudroom is right as you enter from our garage, so it's a space I see several times a day.  Having it pretty when I enter our home makes me a happy girl.  I picked up this pillow and throw at Target at the beginning of summer and love the sunny yellow.  My bag is a purchase from last summer on sale at Banana Republic Factory and I've used it all summer!  Love the size and the stripes!

 

My pool bag hangs in here as well all summer, but other then that I like it cleared out!  We have a couple of other hooks on a separate wall for the dog leash, and a few other things, but this area is mine to make pretty for a few months out of the year!

I am also guest posting over at Crazy Wonderful today.  It's a fun series my friend Shelley has put together called 'inside my bag.'  Hop over and check it out and just to warn you...you might get sucked into her blog.  Her home and DIYs are amazing!!

Have a wonderful day!
