As autumn fast approaches, it’s time to think about where to hang the jackets, the hats, the umbrellas, and on and on. An unsung hero of the organizational world is the humble coat rack. Here are ten classic and not-so-classic options.

From Janet:
I used to shrug my shoulders when my Seattle friends raved about these gorgeous candle votives called Glassybaby. How amazing could votive holders be? Answer: absolutely stunning. The depth and clarity of the hand-blown colored glass is breathtaking, and because they are available in 53 colors, you can find the exact shade you’re after. Glassybabies are 3.75 inches high and can be used as glasses (they are dishwasher safe), candle holders, vases, or just as tabletop jewels.
They are available for $40 per votive plus tax and shipping. Order online at glassybaby.com. If you are in Seattle, visit Glassybaby’s studio and store in the Madrona neighborhood, at 34th and Union Streets (206-568-7368). Birch in San Francisco (3263 Sacramento Street, 415-922-4724) carries them as well.
