Kendra converted a front closet to an impromptu mud room. Each basket is utilized to store shoes, weather accessories and knick knacks. A bench was added, along with shelfs making sure every square inch has a purpose. Wallpaper and a delicate lighting fixture adds the finishing touches.
You'll notice all her writing utensils on her kitchen island. Kendra uses an old Coca Cola bottle crate to hold markers, pencils and scissors. All within reach for homework and projects.
Here, she uses a tier fruit bowl holder to store mittens, hats and winter accessories. An easy reference corner for "Mom, where are my mittens?"
Kendra's place for her jewelry, "I used a painted board and hammered a lot of nails everywhere. Now I can see everything at once, instead of a tangled clump in a drawer."
"The hallway to my kids rooms, decorated with their art work. I have always liked these self portraits made in art class at South School."
Another reason why Kendra's house is so fun to visit, never a dull blank canvas. She thinks outside the box - not only with imagery, but with purpose, too. You go, girl!
