Welcome to our home - A tour of our entryway

This post has been a long time coming - wow! We started our garage addition project well over a year and a half ago. Our entry way was part of that addition.  Originally we were just going to create a breezeway between the house and garage but decided to go for a full entryway instead.  We are SO thankful we did because we added more storage and more space - two things you  need when you live in an old farmhouse.

Before I get to the after pictures here are a couple of "in progress pictures.
The old entryway started where the tile started. It was pretty teeny-tiny!
We put a heated floor in our garage. That heated floor continued into our entryway - bonus!

Now... here is the entryway as it is today!

The view out of our patio doors is our south pasture. This guy keeps a close watch. :)

Where did I get my stuff you ask... here is your answer.
Custom area rug -  The Perfect Rug
Hunter Boots Print - Bright Bold & Beautiful
Mirror & Bench - Target
Deer head pillow - Regan's Brain
Iowa map canvas - DIY
Living Life Print - Wedding Gift
Color- Agreeable Gray by Sherwin Williams SW7029

There are still a few minor things we are already going to update like changing out the door to the garage and re-painting the outside doors to a darker color.  We can seem to use the door handles to shut the door so we always have handprints on the white doors.  Stay tuned for the updates!

    1. Thanks Carissa! We don't have any kids so keeping things picked up is fairly easy. Washing my floors regularly is another story... :)
