Spring Cleaning: Hall Closet

April 7, 2010

Our Hall Closet is a problem area for us. I think one of the biggest problems is that I don’t really have a separate office space, so I find myself cramming my office stuff into the hall closet with everything else a hall closet holds.  Pair that with a husband who has a coat fetish [...]
