The Landing Strip

As mentioned, this week’s Apartment Therapy tasks are pretty simple. When I first moved in to my apartment, I wanted the entryway to be really simple, so I didn’t do too much decorating.

#72: Apartment Therapy | Week 3

Week 3 is all about de-cluttering the entryway in your home. The theory is that if you don’t let junk cross the barrier into your home it will stay cleaner! This week is super easy for me since my apartment is pretty small.
