The purpose of a giant corkboard

I remember when I first posted about my corkboard someone wrote, "Nice, but I don't really get the purpose." 

Yeah, I still remember that. Thanks, Annon. 

Anyway here's one super awesome reason for having a giant corkboard in your entry way. Christmas card holder! :) Love it.

I put ours in the frame and threw some colorful garland up there. I like that the entry way is full of color even though the rest of our house is very neutral. It's the first place people walk into when they come over and I like it to be fun.

Picutres are pretty wonky because I took them when the sun was setting and those silly glares came right through the back door, oh well.. Such is life. 

Oh, and for fun, because the mudroom looks so clean and nice, here's what real life is right now. Bags from the trunk of my car, socks on the floor, bag of cans, bag of trash because well of course I ran out of garbage bags yesterday. Whatever, judge if you must. ;) Oh, I also see a measuring spoon! It's like Ispy. 

Merry-almost-Christmas Friends!
