Entryway Accessories

January 29, 2013 by Crafty Teacher Lady +

Here’s an update on where my entry hallway stands in its makeover! 
You may remember my post on adding some pops of color by making pillows for the bench…or this post on framing up some family photos…or this one on installing beadboard.
I’ve continued to add some color with a few more accents. 
The fabric for the pillows comes from JoAnn Fabrics and the ceramic owl vase was picked up at a store in my local mall. The orange fabric bins are the Martha Stewart collection at Home Depot.  
I was so excited to find the orange and gray plaid lined organizer on a recent trip to Target! The colors are perfect and I was looking for something that would help keep my keys, change, and sunglasses organized in my ‘drop zone’! The chandelier is from Ikea and the mirror is something I’ve had since I was a teenage (recently spray painted gray). The shelving unit is also from Target.
Oh and how cute are my new boots from LL Bean? Every Maine girl needs a pair of Bean boots to survive the long winters! They’re so warm and easy to slip on over my tights when running out the door to school (then I pull a Mr. Rogers and change into my nice shoes)!

    Cute tray!!! I need to go check out Target. Ours is currently undergoing some remodeling as it's one of the oldest styles of Targets out there. I wish we could have a Super Target but the town it's in is basically owned by the Walmart family. Ugh!

      My local Target underwent a makeover last year…I like the original much better though because for some reason, this 'new' Target doesn't seem to offer as much in the women's clothing department! Boo!

We took our 4th annual trip to @storylandnh and as We took our 4th annual trip to @storylandnh and as we sat to take a break, this character came over to say hello. Our daughter has worked so hard in physical therapy to overcome some gross motor challenges related to balance and coordination, most notably learning to walk independently. With some encouragement, she stood up and walked over for a hug! This seemingly mundane moment for most families is SUCH a huge milestone for us- one that is a culmination of YEARS of hard work. Words cannot express how proud I am to be her mom and to have a front row seat to true determination, perseverance, and patience…today was an awesome day and makes me so hopeful for the future! 💗
My home state of Maine will forever have my heart- My home state of Maine will forever have my heart- I miss it every day but feel so lucky I get to come back home for much of the summer to fill my cup right up to the brim! I hope my daughter is building core memories of her time here each summer as well…video captured while on a July Fourth family cruise in front of Portland Head Light in Cape Elizabeth, Maine.

Still can’t believe this is our backyard…I was get Still can’t believe this is our backyard…I was getting ready for bed and I looked out my window and saw both a deer and a bunny and pretty much felt just like Snow White! I can’t get enough of these cute visitors (and also know I won’t be spending a ton on landscaping since most plants won’t stand a chance)! 🤣
Spring is the time to shine for the two cherry tre Spring is the time to shine for the two cherry trees in our backyard…watching them bloom has been nothing short of magical. And the scent of the blossoms!! Absolutely divine! 

Buying an older home vs building new can have its perks- one being an established yard (which I just fell in love with). We’ve got neighbors all around, however, the backyard feels pretty private thanks to landscaping done years ago by the previous owners!
Facebook Marketplace for the win! I’m so in love w Facebook Marketplace for the win! I’m so in love with my recent find…the curves are just so darling! I often see many great finds on Marketplace but because I don’t have a truck or trailer, I have to miss out on a lot. I knew this desk would fit in the back of my SUV so I jumped at the chance to grab it. What’s your favorite secondhand find?
