OUR HOME // ENTRANCE WAY UPDATE


Entryway Update

Happy Monday everybody! Hope you all had an awesome weekend. We added another homestay student to our family...so now I'm cooking for FOUR...I guess I'm just getting some good mom training for the future then? 

Well it's been awhile since I've shown you some house updates! We haven't done any crazy reno's but we're pretty much settled into every room so I can start showing you what we're up to and some plans for the future.

So let's have a look at what our entryway used to look like....

The entry way is on the far left. I don't have an original photo of it but you can see it had some nasty linoleum. In January we decided to get rid of it and replace it with tiles.

Scraping off the linoleum was some treacherous work!!! And PS how good do our floors look? (James refinished them and hopefully soon I'll get my stuff together and do a post on that!) So after we scraped off the old floor, James laid down the tiles. Oh and he also painted the door a nice dark grey!

What a difference those tiles make! Oh and James also added baseboard which made a huge difference! We also installed a cute light from Ikea. But it's a small space and I want to jazz it up. I don't want to do anything huge because it really is such a small space but I want it to be a bit more exciting. 

What I really want to do is wallpaper/wall decal/paint the wall on the right.

Because it's such a small wall, I really want to do something fun! Here's what I'm thinking...

Wallpaper Ideas

1. Gold Dots 2. Cactus 3. Blue Triangles 4. Florals

Now how cute are those selections!!! It makes me really excited about finishing this space. I looove the cacti but I think they may be a little bit too trendy and go out of style in a few years. The gold dots are totally me but totally predictable. Now those triangles and those blooms...#swoon. Which one is your favourite?

Hope you have a wonderful Monday!

Stay gold,
