Entryway! What's Going On In There?

It's got personality... mine! That's for sure! So, I realized with all the furniture redo's and other people's room redo's, and being obsessed with my master bedroom redo, I haven't posted anything about the rest of my house in quite a while.  In case you are new to this little blog, I'll fill you in on all the goings on in there.  It all started with the Rub n' Buff gold stencil on the wall.  Which is funny because I said in that post that I was thinking of keeping things "sparse" in here.  Uhhh, no.





Then it just kind of took shape as I found new things that I loved.  Like... I love, love, love, fat vintage brass lamps!  I have two on the other side of the room too!  And,  I love cowhide rugs too!



I found these two pint sized club chairs at an estate sale.  Love those little guys too, although they will be reupholstered in the future!



Oh and lets not forget the other side of the room this time!  There is my pearl blue and silver desk redo



Well, that's how it sits for now.  Nothing in my house is ever done though.  It always changes as I find new things to love.  I'll keep you posted!

So they say your entryway is supposed to set the tone for the rest of your house... Do you think my entryway would have you primed and ready to see other rooms that look like this,


and this,


that sometimes looks like this.


Hmmmmm???  Well, it's definitely not boring! : )

    1. The lamps!... I know right! 2 of them I got from a garage sale, for a whopping $3, then get this, I saw the almost IDENTICAL set of lamps on One Kings Lane for $1200.00 for the pair! Say WHAT! lol The other one I found at a thrift store! Crazy right?!

  3. Did the gold rub go on smoothly. I had the worst luck with paint and stencils. It kept leaking paint over the edges of the line of the stencil.It looked awful! I love how yours came out.

    1. Hey there! It did go on smoothly. I used Deglosser to thin the Rub n' Buff a bit so I could paint it on. It dries really fast. Here's a link to some of the tips and tricks I've found helpful when using the Rub n' Buff. http://renewredo.blogspot.com/2012/01/rub-n-buff-tips-and-tricks.html

  5. I think you started with a beautiful creamy white wall color in your entry. Would you mind sharing the brand and wall color?
    I recently found your blog and inspired me! Thanks Yvonne
