Our Finished Entry -Pottery Barn Style

I finally finished hanging up the pictures! But due to my lack of patience and not getting plate holders I decided to put up a couple of other things I had around.

This



Turned into this......



Sources: Frames: BigLots (about a year ago), Key Pictures,Mirror and Coat Rack: Pier 1 ( several years ago), Letter G: Kohls (On Clearance), Bench: CostPlus World Market, Topiary: Walmart, Gessell Home Sign: I made and attached vinyl lettering from Wonderfully Wordy. Candle Lantern: ZGallerie (years ago), Have a nice day sign: Home Goods Basket and Blanket: Target

I am SO happy with the way it turned out. A plant in the basket would be nice but it would have to be something that's REALLY hard to kill. I have a terribly bad brown thumb.For now we are going with the blanket, I think it works. I am crossing my fingers that I don't kill the cute topiary.

I was going for this look and I think I am pretty close...what do you think?

I'd love a bench like that in my foyer. Great display and a nice mixture of items on the wall. I think it totally reflects you inspirations.

Thanks for visiting my blog! I am FLOORED by how gorgeous your entryway is. To be honest, I like it better than all the pictures you were patterning it after. It is truly fabulous-looking. I need to get to work on my own!!! :)

Hi there,
This is beautiful! Huge PB fan here so I love how this came out.

Jennifer Johnson said...

this looks awesome!!! makes me wish that I had a larger entryway!

Mom of the Twinkies and Tot! said...

Great entryway! I love the before and after shot! When I hang a grouping of things I do the same thing...lay them out on the floor and take a snapshot for reference. So much easier to make it look just right when I do that!

Lena Medina said...

I wasn't able to link up this week as I don't really have an entry way to my home...but if I did, yours would be my inspiration! WOnderful and beautiful! I love the pictures, mirrors, and sayings that you placed together so beautifully!

I like yours much better than all of the "professional" ones! Great Job!

CAS said...

Yep, I would say you came pretty darn close to your inspiration pictures. It looks very nice. I have a candle lantern almost exactly like yours. I'm new to your blog & a new follower.
