Our new Entry!

Welcome!! Come on in and stay awhile, won't you!? 

Today I'm sharing the first space you see when you are welcomed into our home...our entry way!

Our entry received some much needed love...I am absolutely loving our new space! It all began with this sweet pew..I've been wanting one for a really long time. 

This one is special! We watched sweet friends say their "I dos" with these pews out in an open field, under gorgeous oak trees..it was dreamy! 

Hubby was asked if I'd want one..hello? Yes yes yes!!! In fact hubby went ahead and bought 2, one for me and another my sister bought! I can't wait to show you where hers is! 

These pews were long, 12 ft long! I'd been dreaming of having one in our entry..so sweet as he is, he chopped it down to the perfect size for our space.  

I love it!!

In our entry, we also have a small closet, one that is always overflowing! So for friends to have a place to hang they coats and things, wasn't happening. I loved all the ideas of having extra ways to hang all of it! 

Remember my stack if sweet barn wood?! 

Ya, some of it has the prettiest paint on them. I knew this old wood would be perfect for hooks! Full of zillions of nails, it took a while to pull all of them. So worth it tho! I also searched through old pieces of unused trim, some that was used and started stacking them to make my shelf to hold hooks.

I'm pretty excited about this one! I had no help...ekkk, I know!! Hubby has taught me how to use all his tools and has also gotten me some of my own. I'm officially in love with a nail gun! 

 

I decided that leaving all the pieces as is was the best way. We hung it and knew it was perfect for what we needed!

I usually let things be a bit before I finish...if you only knew how many unfinished things I've got myself into! Oh wait, you just might...let's see, 3 kids bedrooms in the middle of change and a porch still not completely done. It feels good to get this space partly finished, for now. 

While letting it be a bit, It began to feel to dark so I added a bit of white. Addicted to whites..you know! 

I shopped the house for items we already had. I want to paint the frames, and add some favorite pics of fun family memories. 

For now, I'm playing around with it. I'm sure this area will be a fun to change it up over time..and now when you come in, your coats won't be stashed all over the place! ;)

Thanks got stopping in..enjoy the rest of your weekend!!

Xoxo,
