Upgraded Boot Tray

A couple weeks ago my BFF, Katie, introduced me to Pinterest.  OMG! It is my new obsession!  There are sooooo many good ideas out there!  I was a little resistant at first when she told me that I just HAD to join because it was so cool.  Well, I am so super glad that I did.  I have been inspired in so many different ways.


I have boards for foods that I want to try once I'm done with my diet, ideas for my home, things to do with Luke, etc, etc.  I have gotten so many good ideas to do in my house.  One of them was the pebble-filled boot tray.  The original link was to Martha Stewart.


Now, my old boot tray was nothing to write home about.  It served its purpose, but wasn't much to look at.  It kept the melting snow from ruining the laminate flooring in the entry, but it looked dirty and gross.   And I never did like the way it looked with the way the rest of the entry is decorated.

Then along comes Martha!  

Key To The City

Once the entry was done, it was time to decorate.  I've been scouring the interwebs for decorating ideas and came across this vintage keys post on another blog.  I thought it was such a cute idea for the entry!



So we set out in search of vintage looking keys and other decor stuff at the Goodwill.  Instead of finding a few smaller keys, Grant found a GIANT key!
