Each year our foyer takes on a new look in the way of furnishings. From a buffet to an old radio and turntable combo to this year's cedar chest, the front room's furniture seems to be on a constant merry-go-round. When I rearranged the furniture for my master bedroom makeover, (to see the makeover click here) this cedar chest no longer fit in the room's new configuration and had to be relocated to another spot in our home. To be honest I kind of like it here at least for now. The mirror above the chest helps to fill up the wall and the shelf adds some architectural interest to the space.
This year I decided to go with a grand and colorful floral arrangement for atop the chest. To soften the look of the wood, a quilt, which was handmade by my cousin Carol, was placed on top of the chest.
Some darling miniature pumpkins fill the little ceramic weave basket.
And that is our autumn inspired foyer!
Hope you are ell enjoying some cooler fall weather with its stunning blue skies and white puffy clouds!
And have a great day!
