Re: For Those Who Need a Place to Hang COATS!

Those are cute. I love World Market. We have a coat tree by the front door and neither cat has even looked at it in almost ten years.

Re: For Those Who Need a Place to Hang COATS!

Happy Housewife - I too wondered why they didn't have a linen closet in this house-one thing I overlooked when purchasing! But I solved my problem I have under storage bed plastic box I store guest towels, etc for 2nd bathroom. For the bedroom bath there is a portion of my closet (large walk in) that has the California closet system. My entryway has a nice large coat closet and I keep my winter stuff at my kids (up north) as I don't need it here except a couple of times.

Some of my neighbors tell me they keep their linens under the bed - but I have one of those modern beds where you don't use a bedspread or a dust ruffle - the sides of the bed are finished - so under the bed is visible and I can't store stuff under there.

When we first were house shopping down here I was a bit surprised that most homes did not have a coat closet by the front door. In fact no coat closet at all. I kept a lot of my winter things just in case we had to travel north in winter, or we experienced a really bad cold snap here. They hang ready in the back of my closet along with my high boots.

I live in California and all our homes have coat closets. Too bad Florida doesn't have them. Why?

I am in NC, and I don't have a entry way coat closet, or a linen closet. I did have both up north. It must be a southern thing.
