Entryway Updates!

Hello All! It's been a while since I've posted, I've been super busy with my new job and trying to get some things done at the house! I finally have a couple of updates I can show, starting with my entryway.

I finally put up my  "hello" vinyl decal that I bought before we even moved in!

Isn't it just adorable!!! I got it from this Etsy shop, but I don't see if for sale anymore! There are plenty others available on Etsy though. I just liked this one in particular because it had the little heart, which I thought was a cute touch.

I also got a new door mat to replace the lovely carpet remnant we had prior, 

and put out my owl sculpture my sister got me for Christmas.

I  feel like the mat is too small, though. It's a standard size, but it just looks shrimpy to me. I saw some larger ones at Target, so it may be getting replaced soon.

My "To-Do" list for out here now consists of changing out the light fixture:

Womp womp... not very impressive!

And getting some furniture for out here. I really, really want some rocking chairs, maybe in a fun, bright color like red or teal, with a small table for drinks and snacks!

On to the inside!

I haven't really made much progress here, except for my new rug. I found this 4x6 rug at Aldi (a discount grocery store) for $20! Who would have guessed? I really helps me visualize where I want to go from here.

My "To-Do" list for here is much longer! I need to replace the light fixture with my thrifted chandelier(once I decide on a color!), and paint the walls.

I also am keeping my eyes peeled for a entryway table at a good price. I think I'm wanting to get something and paint it dark teal, a couple shades darker than my kitchen. I will spare you the picture of the coat closet, which also is in need of some organizing.

What lies beneath...

And yes, that is an extremely aesthetic over the door hat hanger. Which has been the extent of my closet organizing thus far, and I hate it.

I've done a few other small updates, but of course nothing is completed yet. I've been sick all week, and so some of the things I had planned to accomplish are on the back burner for now. But I will have more coming up!
