too many pennies: January 2012

Lately I have been completely inspired by the abundance of home decor showcasing various forms of the outdoors. However, I was at somewhat of a loss on how I might add this natural element to my own home. I needed a piece that could cover a few bases: a) work with a low budget, b) not be too large, c) fit in with my immediate style, d) be readily available, and e) serve some kind of space-saving function in my small abode. Ultimately (and after spotting a broken tree outside my front door) I came up with this branch hanger. It seems to cover all of my wants and needs, and is currently being used to hold small bags and wristlets that I have been revolving through these past few weeks.
