Entrez-vous

Today over at Cottage and Vine, Rene is hosting her first ever linky party called "Room by Room."  This month the party is all about entries and foyers, so I thought I would join up. I have posted about my entry previously, sharing my "grasscloth" wall.   I figured I would freshen things up a bit and share some additional photos of the space.

Here is what you have seen before...

We recently got a new front door which lets in much more light.  I am delighted with how it looks and even though this photo does not do it justice, it makes the space much brighter, so mission accomplished!

The chest of drawers was a freebie given new life with a few coats of paint, nail head trim and new hardware.  I always keep something pretty and seasonal in the large vase.  Today I have some hydrangea from my garden. The tray corrals the mail and other "stuff."

The antique "buggy bench" was my Mom's and I love having a spot to sit and put on my shoes or drop my bag. 

The floor tile is something I am not crazy about, but since it is embedded in concrete and would take a jackhammer to remove and lots of $$ to replace, we have made it work.  And, it is a little quirky, which  I like!
What I love about my foyer is it's size, it is spacious and welcoming as well as functional so it works well for our family.

Thanks Rene for hosting such a great little soirée.  I love a good party and can't wait to see which room we will party in next month!

Does your room need a “prescription” for a change of decor, function or design
If so please contact me, I would love to help your room feel better with a Room Rx

Thanks for joining the party Cathy! I'll bet that adding the door with sidelights really did brighten the room. Love the nail head trim on the chest.

I love the detail on the front door and the nailhead trim is fabulous! Also love that you have your mum's bench. Also joined the entryway party at Cottage & Vine.

You're right, the tile in the entryway is really different and fun. And the door! It's perfect! Worth the wait.

You have a beautiful entry way - and spacious is right, that's great! And I really like the floor tile too.

Finally something that isn't country. :) Love your quirky fun sense of style. The art work made me smile and kudos for the rug at an angle.
