Design Find: Eames Hang It All affordable alternative

If you've been to our home during the winter, you may have noticed a big pile of coats suspended off a wall in our front entry. You may or may not have wondered what was under that giant pile of coats. It's our adorable Eames Hang It All wall hook that hibernates all winter under a big pile of coats and comes out to play in the warmer summer months when it's been unburdened from its winter coat responsibilities.

I'm a big fan of our Eames Hang It All. We've had ours for eight years and it's moved with us to three different homes. At the end of a long winters day, this little guy gets the job done when it comes to holding a whole lot of coats. The round spherical wooden knobs are gentler on our clothes than pokey wooden style wall hooks and did I mention that the Eames Hang It All is super cheerful and colorful?

While I love the Eames Hang It All, it's not exactly cheap at $199 bucks. That's why I was super excited to find a great alternative from Land of Nod. Land of Nod is the Crate & Barrel brand for kid's furniture and they offer some really great affordable mid century inspired options including the Multiplayer Wall Hook priced at just $14.95. Similar to the Eames version, The Land of Nod wall hook looks sturdy, features the same spherical knobs and is colorful to boot. While the Land of Nod wall hook as fewer knobs than the Eames, at $14.95 you can buy two wall hangers and still be WAY ahead.
