MAGAZINES: AN ADDICTION? PERHAPS...

I will not apologize for my magazine addiction - as I remarked to my mother as a teen, "It could be worse! I could be addicted to drugs!" Which is really only funny if you know my family. Although perhaps "funny" isn't what everyone would call it. But I digress.

Architectural Digest? Elle? In Style? Vogue? House Beautiful? Coastal Living? People? US? Traditional Home? The New Yorker? Elle Decor? The Economist? New York? Veranda?  Check, check, and check! And while there are also several rags that I read online (shout-out to Lonny, Rue, and House of Fifty: What up, homies???), I get all of the aforementioned publications (and maybe more. I'm not comfortable saying right now) in print form, and the bulk adds up.

I do own a magazine holder, and it's, well, it's fine. I mean, it's OK. It gets the job done, I suppose. It's rattan? I think? But it's not huge, and the overflow ends up stacked on the bottom shelf of the side table behind it:

But it's not the magazine rack of my dreams. in fact, I didn't know there WAS a magazine holder of my dreams until I saw this beauty on Pinterest:

It was on Etsy, and has been sold, but there are many, many more where it came from. Take a look:

WTF is that sawed off tree stump doing in the picture? I have NO idea...

Not to mention this beauty from Houzz.com:

 And my current heart's desire from Minty:

And it's only $32!!! I might just buy it, if I can't convince Client #7 to buy it instead...

So what do you do with your magazines?
