Advice on Window Grills for New Windows-Modern Farmhouse Update
Comments (8)By beefing them up, I'm suggesting the grilles be thicker in dimension. You cannot divide the current grille because 'lights" in windows are never that ratio of height versus width. You're the one trying to turn a ranch into a farmhouse. A lot of professionals would not recommend that....See MoreHow to i transform this entry into more of a modern farmhouse style?
Comments (28)I'm actually a fan of benches by the front door. But I live in The Great White North and feel like it's polite to provide a spot for guests to sit and remove snow- or mud-covered boots. I probably would NOT put a bunch of cubbies or otherwise provide a "drop zone" for the kids to dump everything at the front door. That is ideally kept to the "back hall" or "mud room" if you have one. Because if you give them a horizontal surface, they will use it and you'll spend the next umpteen years yelling at them to get their backpacks/etc out of the entryway. As to the other, I've been in lots of farm houses. (Farm country, and all) None of them look like that. Especially with that cast iron railing. All of it is much nearer "Rustic Italian" or something similar. Don't feel like you have to limit that to "Tuscan Gold" paint, espresso cabinets, and travertine floors. Most of that trend was WAY overdone. So - no grapes, no roosters, etc. Go look for images and you see lots of what you have here - white walls, exposed beams and brick, etc. There is a lot to work with there - but it probably can't be shoe-horned into "HGTV Modern Farmhouse." And you really don't want to do that. It's a trend that will be passing off pretty soon, I suspect. Remain faithful to the style and bones of the house and you'll always have a timeless classic....See Moreblack and white modern farmhouse apartment living room
Comments (23)Yes. Another modern farmhouse apartment. I’m 25 young and single and the beauty of all that is I can do what I want and re-style as I please. My bedroom is an extremely modern/glam room with a velvet, large headboard with navy and metallic accents. And you know what? I love that too! Thanks for everyone’s opinions I enjoy looking at all of your great spaces and reading the comments even though some comments are hardcore lol....See MoreWhat's a good white brick -- bright white? for a farmhouse style home
