Foyer Refresh
Hello hello! I hope you all had a great, long holiday weekend! I am feeling very tired and struggling to get back into the swing of things, but on the bright side, at least it’s a short work-week!
If you follow along on my Instagram stories, you know that we recently had our foyer updated! Wallpaper has been making a major comeback, and I have been wanting to incorporate it into this space for a long time. Finding the perfect paper and committing to it proved to be a challenge, which is funny because I am usually very decisive. I originally went into this thinking I wanted a navy and white printed wallpaper to coordinate with the navy walls in the dining room, but surprisingly I went with a neutral pattern and I could not love it more! It adds the perfect amount of visual interest without being too overpowering. The color scheme of navy, French blue, blush, white and taupe are so refreshing and flow well with our living room which has the same color palette.
When I get a house project on my mind, I usually start scheming and planning MONTHS in advance (and then saving, haha!). I browse the internet to get lots of ideas and compare various options before pulling the trigger. When it comes to decorating our home, I have learned that quality over quantity is always better, and that sometimes you have to be patient to get what you truly want. In the end, the wait is always worth it!
I am so excited to show you all the details here, including a little before & after comparison! All sources are listed at the end of the post! So here we go…
Before:
After:
The wood columns were added last fall, so they’re a fairly new addition but I did not have a photo with the prior columns. They were the round, white traditional columns that are more of a “builder basic” look. They did not go with the rest of our home, so we had them replaced with these reclaimed wood columns. They have been a great addition! If you are local, I can provide you with the contact information for the craftsmen who did this…just let me know!
