    Getting Ready for Fall: Towels

    Here's our next installment of Getting Ready for Fall. We'll be doing this series of posts through next week, check back to see the Manor prepare for fall.


    Today we hung a towel beside the mudroom entrance, come fall it rains a lot here, I mean a lot, a lot, 44 inches a year to be exact. And while our lawns are green, they can also be very muddy, and even though Max is very tiny, the little monster can drag in more then his fair share of dirt. The towel is there to wipe dirty paws, or a quick mop up of water our rain boots drag in.


    Having a towel beside the entrance is extra important for us, we have carpeted steps going up to the main floor and muddy paws just wouldn't do.
    The Towel holder is from Homesense, it was on sale for $3.00. The towel is also from Homesense and matches the Green Stripes in the Mudroom perfectly.

    Check back tomorrow to see the Powder Room Reveal.

    In the meantime we'll keep busy, getting ready for fall.

      I love the towel idea!! WE have two little dogs, and their itty bitty paws have been tracking in stuff on my nice (not so nice anymore) carpets. :( I like the idea of having the towel right there before they sneak in. ;)

      What a great idea! Our two bigger dogs come in and out through our unfinished basement (mat in and out) so they don't cause too much trouble, but our little Cairn being low to the ground is a whole other story! Our grass goes dormant in fall/winter, so it is mud and dead grass non-stop. I'll have to hang one in the garage next to the door. Can't wait to see the reveal!

      Yes it's amazing how wet/dirty four little paws get. We keep a towel by the back door for quick clean-ups but it's not as stylish as yours!
