I’m going to Hang-It-All

Friday, May 1st, 2009

What What!

My new Hong Kong faux Eames Hang-It-All has finally arrived.

I Ebay’d it for $35…but the shipping cost just as much. The shipping is were they really get you. Still overall a good deal since most reproductions cost $149 – $179 in the USA without shipping and taxes. Whatev’s – I’ve been dying for one these for some time, well almost a year, after I passed up a vintage one a year ago for $150 since it didn’t pass the $100 rule.

FINALLY I have somewhere to put my purse. It has been cluttering up the den/office desk since we moved in.

*I installed it in the den since that is our main entrance/exit. We never use the front door.

Office

Friday, May 1st, 2009

The office is looking a hot mess.

I really need to figure something out. The wall light is killing me, our paperwork is out of control and there are cords everywhere…but at least I have a new solution for my purse…

Should I add shelves or something? I’m worried about closing in an already tight space with too many built-in features. I already kind of hate the layout of the desk and don’t want to slap more stuff on for just giggles. Then I have this idea about installing a shallow shelf that runs all the way across the wall above the door frame. I guess it wouldn’t be very accessible for storage.



Suggestions?
