Tips for storage and display from Cheap Chic by Emily Chalmers

The Hall is your home's hello. This one has been made welcoming with rustic storage solutions. Coats and bags hang from redundant driftwood, while scarves hide in a flaxen shopping basket.

Far from their natural home on the floor, these wooden shoe-shapers make elegant hooks for bags in another storage-and-display double act.
