One Room Challenge

My One Room Challenge – Week #1

I have chosen my foyer/hallway as my one room challenge.  We have lived in our home for sixteen years.  When we moved in I made a few changes to the foyer.  Now it’s time to step it up a notch.  This challenge is the perfect opportunity to get my game on.

One Room Challenge Foyer

In a former post I shared how we replaced our solid entry door with a glass door with sidelites.   The foyer was too dark and I craved some natural light.

At that time, I also replaced the oriental runner from the previous owners.  I chose a cream berber style carpet and added a leopard border.   It’s old and tired and time for new carpet.

Those changes were made sixteen years ago.  Now I am excited to redo my foyer, staircase and upstairs landing/hallway as part of this One Room Challenge.

I am just as excited to see the other participants as they redo a room in their home.  I have always been intrigued with Before & After pictures.  The creativity of others inspires me.

Ready, set, go!  Stay tuned every Thursday for the next six weeks and watch my progress.
