I pink puffy heart love Craigslist...

The most recent project on my home-decor-to-do list was my foyer. It's still a work in progess but it's almost done and I am very excited. I wanted a long table or buffet for the long entryway wall in our house. I was patient and eventually came across an awesome peice. I found a six-foot, solid wood, Thomasville buffet for $20. Yes, you read that correctly. $20. It took two strong guys, a truck, some bungee cords and rope to get it home...but TWENTY BUCKS!!!! Special thanks to my wonderful hubs for putting up with my random Craigslist purchases and agreeing to hauling them home for me. :)

Here she is before...

This re-do was actually easy despite the crazy detail. Here she is...all pretty in our foyer. The total cost was just under $75. I still need to work on the other walls in the entry and buy a piece of glass for the top of the table to prevent scratches. Do you love her like I do?? I painted her London Grey. The color looks different all day depending on the light but it came out really well.


PS. Please excuse my phone pics. It is quick and easy, but maybe not the best quality. ;)

Ok, I am off to find some more projects!!
