Striped Walls in Mudroom: Gray + White


It finally happened! I have wanted horizontal stripes for quite some time now, 
I just couldn't decide exactley where... hall, bedroom, or mudroom?
It ended up in the mudroom and I'm so excited. Everytime I pass through our mudroom,
I have a smile on my face. The stripes just make me happy.

**The organizer above is from IKEA and holds the socks and shoes for my 4 kids. 
They each get a baskets for socks and one for shoes.  
For us, it's hard enough to get out the door even with this organizer, 
but it just simplifies the process a little more. Anything helps, right? ;)

***The random cabinet door on the wall is our hidden organizer.
When we built our home, I had them do a cut-out to put in a cork board 
so we could have our messy papers hidden: 
our calender and all our papers from dance, gymnastics, piano, baseball, etc.
Right now I'm tempted to paint it with that chalkboard paint so it can be a chalkboard/message board too...

Everything is almost complete... 
I just need to find the perfect mudroom rug-- 
with my track history this could take awhile...
I want something funky, bright & the perfect color to hide dirt since it is in a mudroom.
I also need to hang something, possibly hooks, on the wall above the bench.
But for now, I'm super happy.
We did a little more painting... so more photos later. 

PAINT COLORS:
Decorators White by Benjamin Moore
Charleston Gray by Sherwin Williams 
(i had them add just a tiny more black to get the exact gray I wanted).
