Disclosure: A huge thanks to World Market for sponsoring today’s post.
Hi friends!
Today I want to show you how we put together a simple and organized Drop Zone area! I desperately needed a space in the entryway of our house to organize and house all of our things. You know, mittens, coats, hats, mail, school papers, etc. One place to keep it all safe and organized and it needed to be simple enough that my little ones could use it too.
I first started out by putting together a little vision board of what I wanted. I knew I wanted a rustic feel, lots of natural woods and fibers. I pulled everything from World Market.
After I had my vision board, I went shopping at World Market. I was able to find everything I needed (and so much more) for my drop zone space. I also pulled some items that I already had around the house and put it all together. The biggest piece and the main piece was the Roland Console Table. It is an absolutely STUNNING table made of solid acacia wood. I was so drawn to the rustic feel, the two large drawers, and the space below to house baskets. It has quickly become my favorite piece of furniture in the house.
I added these gorgeous Lexie V-Weave Baskets on the bottom shelf and created some DIY tags using some chalkboard paint and wooden ornaments. Each one of the boys has their own basket to house their winter accessories and coats. They can simply pull out their basket and throw everything in, easy as that! We added one unlabeled basket for misc. things like extra scarves and hats.
The two big drawers are wonderful because when Wyatt brings papers home from school, they have a place to go. We use the other drawer to store mail that needs to be opened. I can’t tell you how incredibly convenient it is to have a place to put things as soon as we come in the door!
I also picked up a Natural Segovia Mirror to hang above the console for those quick once-overs we all do just before heading out the door. I loved the detail of this mirror and thought it complimented the table so well!
I topped the table with my bottle tree collection (ALL from World Market). Some of these trees I bought a few years ago and are no longer available. But I love to pick up one or two each year to add to the growing collection. I swear, World Market has the cutest winter decor items perfect for holiday decorating. The lovely candle, tray, and deer are also from World Market.
So, what do you think?
Could you use a Drop Zone like this in your house?
I use baskets to hide a lot of my stuff, too 🙂 I love that table 🙂
This is such a beautiful space! I’ve attempted to make one several times – but with my 3 boys, it stays a heap!
I LOVE your dropzone. I’d love to see a picture of where you keep your shoes. Ugg that is hard for me!
Love the wicker baskets.
These items work so well together! I wish i could do something like this!
I desperately need a drop zone area like this in my house! What a great piece of furniture!
I love World Market. They always have such unique and well-made items.
This is such a great idea. I need something like this.
I need a drop zone in my house pretty desperately. Yours turned out perfect!
OMG! I Love this idea!
This looks perfect! I’d love to make one too – those baskets are beautiful! Love the holiday touches too 🙂
Your drop zone looks very neat. I like the rustic feel upon entering the house!
You got superbly looking furnishings. That acacia wood stuff is phenomenal!
I totally love World Market! Thanks for the great product review update. I would love those little trees.
These baskets look so amazing, I really like them a lot!
I am obsessed with your blog! It’s so cute! and I love these little decorations you have! So adorable!
Definitely! I really need to organise my house, things are everywhere because my husband is the opposite of me! He doesn’t care and I’m a neat freak.
You’ve made this space look really lovely. I could do with something like this in my hallway to keep everything neat and tidy/
I love these baskets! The table is amazing too! I need to do something with my entry way but right now unfortunately I am using it as my office! I need to move it into the guest room but I am claustrophobic and hate being back in a room. I like being by the door. Weird I know!
This looks great. I love to use baskets to help me stay organized. My kitchen table seems to be our drop zone.
Absolutely, I would do drop zone like this. I love s table at the front were female guests can place their purses.
I would LOVE to have a drop zone in my home. Your decorations and drop zone looks amazing. Thanks for sharing.
Omg I love these baskets!!! What a chic way to get organized
Lovely drop zone. I love the baskets. I use baskets for organization here too.
This looks really cool. Everything looks so nice and organized. I really need something like that myself
I love those wicker baskets! They’re great for storage, but they also just look good. This post makes the wanna be interior decorator in me very happy. LOL
I need that piece in my life! It would be perfect in my foyer.
I need one of these desperately! Yours looks incredible!
Yes! I could use a drop zone like that! That looks really nice.
That just looks all kinds of awesome. I need one. I need a strip of hooks too, to hang coats.
That’s one good looking drop zone! I think I will need that with my new home 🙂
