Den/Entry/Sunroom reno

I can’t believe it’s almost been a year since we completely renovated our entry, den and sun room. Where does the time go? Remember my ugly antique brass chandelier hanging right inside my front door.  I didn’t really pay much attention to it until we got things put back together and I began to stage [...]

After the curb appeal. After the front porch. After the front door comes the entry area. The area where you welcome your guests into your home. This has always been a favorite of mine in home decor. I like to look at photos of pretty entry ways. Some are defined as entry halls, some are [...]

Ready to reveal…enter here

by Cindi Albright

We’re finally in the home stretch with our den renovation.  Since our entry, den and small sun room areas all flow together, we redid all three at the same time. All three were painted different colors. They all blended but it was time to lighten things up a bit and tie the three areas together. [...]
