We are nearing the end of our entryway makeover! Yay! Last week our new light fixture arrived and the following day I hung it with help from a couple of the women’s basketball players. I have hung most of the ones in this house that I’ve switched out myself (well, if you don’t count Lillie – haha!) so I have to say it was really nice having a 6’3″ helper holding the weight of the chandelier while I wired it.

As I mentioned earlier this week during our Christmas house tour I am back now with the details on our new sideboard and lamps. I started looking for a sideboard and hutch pretty much as soon as we moved in this summer and for the last several months this room has been pretty much empty except for the table.

Although our powder room just got finished up (well, not completely finished but the big projects) last week our entryway has looked like this for a few weeks now. I put off photographing it because I was hoping to switch out the light fixture and thermostat before I photographed it.

 

I think we finally have a room that is feeling “finished”. Well, that’s probably a bit of a stretch seeing how I don’t think a room is ever finished, but all the main components are in here now. I am sure it will continue to evolve (for instance I still need to paint the legs on the sectional, I probably will paint the coffee table base a darker color and we eventually may get the gray cover for the sectional and I am sure if we live here long enough we will end up painting the again, haha!), but for now it’s nice to feel like a room is complete.
