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
love the red. I'm a red addict myself :) Visiting from VandC today - beautiful entry.
ReplyDeleteThanks 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.
ReplyDeleteI 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.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, the tile in the entryway is really different and fun. And the door! It's perfect! Worth the wait.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors and artwork in your entry! It's colorful and welcoming. :)
ReplyDeleteYou have a beautiful entry way - and spacious is right, that's great! And I really like the floor tile too.
ReplyDeleteFinally 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.
