In my last post I shared a look back at our foyer in our previous house and then shared what our new foyer looked like when we moved in 4 months ago.

Even though it is much smaller than our previous foyer we have big plans for it. |

One is to come up with a design for the ceiling. Until then we took down the builder light. |

This Carriage House style light fits the house so much better I think. |

I had to place my vintage secretary in the foyer because there is no other place for it. I am not ready to part with it. If you remember it use to sit next to our fireplace at the last house. The little bit of wall space in the new foyer was just enough space for it. |

I have had these vintage inspired bird pictures for several years now. I never found a place to use them at the last house. I think they work perfectly here. |

The office doors will be painted and new hardware installed in due time. |

Love the rug and the secretary is perfect in the foyer. You home is so pretty and coming right along.
ReplyDeleteThe foyer is looking great. Love the chandelier! It sounds like you have some wonderful plans for this house.
ReplyDeletePamela, your new house is so pretty to start with but when you add your personal touches it becomes exceptional.
ReplyDeleteSavannah is so cute and love the rug! your blog is so fun and pretty
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about having to 'work a piece in' that you are not ready to part with...that one is too pretty to let go and it looks like it works great for the foyer...especially if you aren't going in and out every minute. It is actually a nice accent piece. Hope you have a great weekend- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteLove love Pamela! That rug is so pretty. I also love all the light you get in your foyer. That front door is awesome. Love it all.

Love it;). The secretary is so pretty there! Love the latern as well. It just looks so fresh and simple! Really pretty;)
ReplyDeletePamela,
ReplyDeleteI agree that your new foyer light fixture is much better for your house than the builder fixture. The rug goes very nicely with the fixture also.

Your secretary looks really pretty in your foyer, Pamela. It goes great with your new rug and I love your new light fixture also!

Your foyer is perfect, love the secretary where you placed it. Looks like it was made just for that spot. I can't wait to see the brick work you are going to do. It will be awesome for sure, just as the rest of your home is!
ReplyDeleteHow I envy you the excitement and plans to pretty up your new home. Seeing your foyer reminds me of our house in KY. When our son redid it he made a nice sized foyer which we'd never had before. He also built wonderful good sized front porch onto, still miss that house and it was 2004 when we moved here to western CO.
ReplyDeleteYour foyer is much bigger, wow how nice it is, love that secretary and bird pictures. And that gorgeous chandelier over table along with your front door caught my attention, looks like for Arts and crafts style home.
They have a builders home tour in Grand Junction in upscale neighborhoods we went to early on moving here. When I commented about certain features being like Arts and Crafts/Craftsman style house one real estate agent commented I was first one to notice/comment on that. To me they were very obvious features but he said others so far hadn't commented on it. The house wasn't completely Craftsman, was mixed with other style.
How long did you look for new house before you bought yours? So much to consider, plan, think of when choosing new home. Wishing you and family so much happiness in your new home.
Have wonderful week, will be watching for new projects.
Hi Pamela,
ReplyDeleteYou have beautifully 'built' your own custom foyer with so many complementary textures, colours and shapes.

I love the rug. I'm glad you kept the secretary. It is such a cute piece.
ReplyDeleteYour entry is gorgeous Pamela! I LOVE the light fixture and your secretary looks wonderful in that spot. The rug is perfect too, great find! Your upcoming projects sound wonderful...can't wait to see more.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing at AMAZE ME MONDAY!
