Today I thought I would share my entryway with you. But first I want to preface that by giving you some idea about my “philosophy” for what I share on my blog. I am showing you things as they are. I am keeping it very real. I am not ashamed to show you things that are less than picture perfect, because my life is not picture perfect and neither is my house. I hope that over time you will see the improvements I am blogging about. We moved into this house at the end of June. We had approximately one week to get into this house and prepare it to be move in ready. This consisted of painting my master bedroom and my daughter’s room and bathroom (she painted those herself), deep cleaning from top to bottom, and that was it, we had to move in. I would have preferred to paint every room before we moved, but things just did not work out that way. So here we are living in a house that is not the way I had planned it would be. We have a list a mile long of things we want to do in this house. I work full time and I am a mother of three children, so my time is limited. I try to do as much as possible myself, so things move slowly. This house is a work in progress, and the things I am showing you are the way things look right now, but will be slowly but surely changing. I have plans for every single room in the house. This is my entry way today. At the end of this post I will show a list of the plans for this space.
- Paint the walls
- Paint the trim
- Paint the banister
- Add more storage if possible
- Add a gallery wall and some art
- paint the landing
- paint the kick plates of the stairs
- Tighten the banister
I love your new front door! I have the tiny foyer of a split level problem as well. The glass door really enlarges the space – great job! Happy Monday from the enchanted oven.
xo,

Thanks Lisa! I'll tell you what, you come on over and see my front door, and bring some of those yummy looking leprechaun cookies with you! Thanks for the comment!
