And today, a photo taken on my clients iPhone:
She threw together the vases and greens on the table for Christmas and winter, inspired by my "Winter Entryway" I shared here:
She basically hired me because of that post.... :) I like her entryway better!!
Once I get the chance to get some more pictures of the space, I'll likely be back with more details. As with most of my projects at this point, she is still looking to add a few more finishing touches, but that will be more clear once you see the rest of the space.
Paint sure does make a difference, doesn't it?!?!?

Gorgeous transformation. My stairs look a little like the before but I have a runner and my husband doesn't want to remove it. That makes it hard to paint the risers. I love the colors in the after. So rich and welcoming!

Love the changes. Yes, paint is crazy good!
ReplyDeleteThat color is gorgeous! What's it called?
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing makeover! That color is beautiful and I love how it's styled. Saw this over at Savvy Southern Style! :-)

So glad she agreed to let you paint all that wood! So elegant now! Did you hang all those photos for her?
ReplyDeleteThanks Luci! I did not hang the photos myself, that would have been impossible. I'm not tall enough and don't have the right ladder. I made paper cutouts for the frames and taped them on the wall to make sure she liked the design. I just said "this design, two feet higher!!" since I couldn't tape them at the right height. We than used the same handyman that built my fireplace and bench to hang this gallery wall and one more that we added to her living room. He did it for a really reasonable price.
DeleteLove! What a sophisticated transformation!

Beautiful! I'm loving the round table! Such an inviting entrance!
ReplyDeleteHi Dawn. I am sooo pinning this post...love her entry way too!!! You did a wonderful job. I am currently working on my entry way and this is great inspiration....I wish I could rip out my carpet on my stairs and do something like this....Christine from http://littlebrags.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteLooks so nice - amazing what some paint will do and some great family photos. I love her table that she has displayed there too.
ReplyDeleteGORGEOUS!!
ReplyDeleteWhat paint did you use on the stairs - I would love to hear your painting tips for the dark handrail and white spindles
ReplyDeleteMy tip for the handrail and spindles is to hire a professional! :) Sorry, but that is the honest to goodness truth, at least from my standpoint! If you don't want to hire a professional, at least pay for good quality paint and get some recommendations from your local Benjamin Moore! The guys in my area are quite helpful.
