In our last house, I created this Rustic Entryway Organizer. It's been doing an amazing job and after almost a year using it, we can't imagine not having it or something like that by our entrance door. I took inspiration from beautiful organizers that I found on Etsy.  When we moved to a new house, the wall by the door had very limited space and our horizontal organizer couldn't fit. Not a big deal I thought and designed a vertical version of our popular Rustic Entryway Organizer. DIY Entryway Organizer turned out spectacular! And I've got my friends fighting over who will take the horizontal one that we no longer need 😉 I guess that means success! To make this second version I used only scrap wood and hooks that I already had from the previous one.

Cost: $10-15

Time spent: 1 hour

Level: beginner

Materials

  • Common board (in my case it's 1x12x21)
  • Scrap planks
  • Ceiling hooks
  • Wall hooks
  • Minwax stain (as usual, I mixed Provincial and Weathered Oak in 70/30 proportion)
  • Screws and nails
  • Sanding block

ENTRYWAY ORGANIZER WOOD

Instructions:

  1. Measure the scraps. You'd want to measure your wall first to make sure it fits and you make it the right size.DIY ENTRYWAY ORGANIZER VERTICAL
  2. Align the scraps, play with a layout and choose best for youDIY ENTRYWAY ORGANIZER VERTICAL
  3. Cut wood to adjusted lengthDIY ENTRYWAY ORGANIZER VERTICAL
  4. Sand the boards. I started sanding with P80 but then realized hand sanding is better for this project.
  5. Put parts together with screws and nails.
  6. Set up hooks DIY ENTRYWAY ORGANIZER VERTICAL
  7. Stain your organizer. You can stain before you assemble it but I prefer to do it as the last step to make sure all pocket holes from screws are also dark.

DIY Vertical Entryway Organizer is a super easy less than an hour project. I really hope you will try it. Let me know in the comments how it went and send me pictures! I love to see what you created!

Since we moved to this house last summer, I had a Since we moved to this house last summer, I had a vision for a piano in this corner of my drawing room. I've been passively checking FBMP for awhile now, since it's definitely wasn't a priority (haha we didn't even have a couch till few days ago). 

So when I saw this beauty 5 mins away from us, I said to myself it had to be mine! 

I finished 7 years of musical school (I was 15 at the time, and barely played ever since). But I really want to pick it up again and teach my kids how to play (well, who am I kidding? I don't have patience for teaching my kids, so I'll find someone who is more qualified than me). 

Wouldn't it be wonderful to hear my kids play? ☺️ I'd start with Chopin, he's always been my favorite☺️ I hope kids are ready for it😅🤣

Will it ever get easy? Or let's say easier? The pa Will it ever get easy? Or let's say easier? The pain, the betrayal, that feeling of being powerless? Some people are simply not good people. And I've done my share. I was in a survival mode for more years I can count. How about switching the narrative and fucking focus my energy on me? To thrive! For me and my kids! That's the only thing I want now. 
It's hard to do, but thriving is the only way to go!
