I stumbled across this wrought iron catch all in a local Goodwill a little over a year ago. I scored this puppy for $3 and was pretty stoked about it considering I had seen similar pieces in HomeGoods, Pottery Barn and Crate and Barrel for anywhere from $25 to $45.
Initially I needed somewhere to stash the mail that constantly cluttered up our kitchen counter tops. I hung this catch-all in the kitchen and it served as a great place to toss important pieces of mail that needed tending to.
Pretty soon, however, it became the catch-all for anything and everything that didn't belong on the kitchen counter tops. Flashcards, baby toys, even a missing sock found its way in there.
Most recently, however, I wanted something that I could use in our {very small) main level powder room to stash a few magazines that were kind of an eye-sore sitting on the back tank of the toilet. I immediately remembered I had this mail catcher thing and decided I would use it in there.
It fit perfectly on the inner wall and I love how it doesn't take up any additional floor space because that powder room has none to spare! I thought about spray painting it white but I actually love the iron contrast since everything in that bathroom is so light to begin with!
