So we literally have no storage by our front door. The walls creating a proper entrance hall were removed decades ago so you walk directly into the living room from the front door. I really like the extra living space it's created where a hallway used to be but it leaves a major problem with storage. I originally placed our skirted table just beside the front door to store boots and scarves and other outdoor daily's but that piece is currently housing the tv. I moved a storage unit from Target in it's place and while the smaller compartments are much more useful, it's created a cluttered landing zone. I decided I desperately need to make another skirted table, only this time I plan to use velcro instead of a staple gun because this piece isn't solid wood. I'm not sure what type of skirt I want or what fabric to use so I draped a leftover white curtain over the top for the time being.
I actually really love the plainness of the white.
Maybe I could try adding some trim?
But what color? Which one?
Suggestions?
Also, don't judge the table styling. It's got a long way to go.
It's really perfect for holding all items usually hidden behind front hall closet doors.
And now something funny
because that's how I roll
Are you following my pins yet?
If not, you should be.

Oh this picture is just so lovely. Love the skirted table.
ReplyDeleteThat works perfectly! I think some navy trim would be a great pop :)
ReplyDeleteGreat solution. I actually posted a skirted table I made for my foyer today, if you want to pop on by and check it out. I used trim from M&J Trimming to spruce mine up a bit. I just glued it on with fabric glue and it has held up great. I can't wait to see what you come up with.
ReplyDeleteI almost bought that same target storage bin for Sterling's room. Great idea to store stuff in there and hid it under a skirt! That quote makes me laugh because its so true.
ReplyDeleteI really like the draped cabinet. Hiw about black or teal grosgrain trim? And where do live that you have snow?! For some reason i thought u lived in florida?!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea. I always go with Navy when I am not sure. Navy can go with pinks, greens, cream... pretty much everything.
ReplyDeleteLove the #2 with the simple navy ribbon. It doesn't take away from that gorgeous rug.:)
ReplyDeleteIs this also classic grey on the walls? the same you had in your new nursery. I think I'm going to do some painting this weekend... eek!
