What to do with my Entry Area
Comments (12)It looks like your entry might be right next to your dining room? I'm thinking the table with the pic over it is in the dining room? If so, the proximity makes it a little awkward to treat the 2 areas separately. I can see the need for something over the bench, but then you'll have a bunch of things all lined up on the wall (counting the furniture and what will hang on the wall). Maybe think about putting the picture over the bench and using something like a taller piece of furniture where the table is (like a small china cabinet, etc). Might not be in your budget right now (I see the baby/little kid stuff in your pics), but maybe on down the line? If that might work, keep your eyes peeled on Craigslist - you might find the perfect thing for very little $$ or even for free....See MorePavers stop short of the entry to home - what to do for the entry?
Comments (4)Well, you have to ask yourself, "How much do you love that concrete?" As suggested, the low cost option would be to stain it. A higher cost choice, but more "lovely" in the long run, would be to get rid of the concrete and extend your existing, or complimentary pavers. A driveway just looks better when it extends all the way to a garage door. Just sayin.'...See MoreHELP! what do I do with my entryway?
Comments (13)If you're going for modern, an easy trick is to keep it minimal and focused on function. I don't see art or a mirror fitting that space properly without taking away from the architecture of the home in such a tight space. A rectangular shape will make the arch at the top more pronounced. I would consider finding some cool hooks if you could use the entryway storage or 3-d art that isn't rectangular. Or reconsider adding drywall. Also, the antler chandelier makes the entryway look smaller. Try repositioning so it follows the length of the hall better....See MoreNeed help/ideas on what to do in this entryway & livingroom!
Comments (2)I was looking at entryways and staircases on Laurel Bern's blog today. She lists some mistakes to avoid. Link if you'd like some photo inspiration. As for a greige, I can recommend BM Silver Satin (OC-26) or Balboa Mist (OC-27)....See Moreshirlpp
