Happy Monday Sweet Blogging Friends.
Wow the weekends go way too quickly!
I wanted to show you a little switch up that I did with some old salvage pieces to make a cool arch entry from the living room to the kitchen.
I took the salvage pieces and had Terry hang them around the tv armoire originally.
It was ok but it bugged me that you could not really see all the chippy lovely of this archway.

We (meaning Terry lol) took the arch way apart and also took off the molding around the door entry into the kitchen from the living room.
|
 |
Terry made all the pieces fit around this entry way.
The archway needs just a little something on the arch. I will know it when I see it.
Maybe a small sign for some kind of flowers in the arch.

I think it looks pretty awesome now and makes a focal point going from the living room into the kitchen.

Wow that turned out great! It’s amazing how Terry can adjust these pieces for you. You’ve really transformed your little cottage!
ReplyDeleteThe arch doorway is beautiful and I love how it perfectly frames out the view of the lovely window and bench in the kitchen.
ReplyDeleteWell Kris - as always, it looks totally wonderful! Looking forward to seeing the 'perfect finishing piece' when you find it. I think that each of your beautiful homes get better, and that it says a lot. They have all been beautiful. Hugs, Gilly x

ReplyDeleteOh my! Agreed, this looks perfect. Good call Kris.
ReplyDeletePerfection needs nothing else. I love this Kris. Heading up your way next week. Hoping to go to the vintage car hop :)
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean. Lately I've been moving the house plants around to keep them from Ivy. And when she figures out how to get to one, I start moving them about. I love how you and Terry create such lovely windows and doorways!

ReplyDeleteIt looks wonderful, Kris! Like it was meant to be there. Can't wait to see the switch-a-roo in the living room.
ReplyDeleteThat turned out amazing!
ReplyDeleteLove the character the door archway brings. Also love the one on the window by the door. Such unique looks!
ReplyDeleteWOW! That looks fantastic!!
ReplyDeleteIt is absolutely stunning..You and your man are quite a Team.. Great job..love it...so beautiful..love your cottage...
ReplyDeleteCome do mine. It turned out great. You two are a great pair.
ReplyDeleteOMG, that is incredible! Makes the room look totally different. I love it as is - the molding is so beautiful on its own that I don't think it needs a sign or flowers or anything. But that's just me. I would love molding around the doorway going from our living room into the kitchen...but that isn't going to happen with the two of us doing it, ha ha!
ReplyDeleteKRIS!!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE it!! It looks incredible! Looks like it was always there!! Gorgeous!
Hugs

It’s a beautiful thing when two people collaborate as well as you and Terry. You’ve got the vision, he’s got the skills to see them to fruition. Lucky lady!
ReplyDeleteAdorable! My walls are so boring. You're giving me inspiration for some winter projects.
ReplyDeleteYou two are really good about jazzing up a small house
ReplyDeleteI don't know why, but the whole room looks bigger!!?? This looks like it was built into the house!! I love it!! as I'm sure you do too...lol. Great job, you guys!!!
ReplyDeleteSmooches.
