Front Entry

Photography by Ali Williamson, Alisandraphoto.com

Our front entry is an eclectic mix of furniture we've made, thrifted finds and family heirlooms. It's where we kick off our shoes and one of our favorite works in progress. Here you'll find the original room sources, ideas for how you can get the look and a peek back at the evolution this space has undergone over the years since we moved in.

EVOLUTION OF THE ENTRY

Our entryway is filled with pieces we've thrifted, repurposed or freshened up. It's all anchored by a long table we made from a glass door we found headed for the landfill in our back alleyway. Over the years we've painted the walls and antique radiator in this space, giving it a welcoming feel.

• Find out how we made the table that sits in our entryway out of a glass door and hairpin legs.
• Also! How we gave our entryway radiator and instant refresh.
• A simple lampshade swap made a big (and budget-friendly!) difference in how our hallway looks.
• Painting the entry hall in a warm gray to match the rest of the downstairs made all the difference.
• That time we made a gallery wall in our front hall and then added to it like crazy.
• And... here's a look all the back at what our entry looked like when we first moved in!
