Foyer Makeover...Planking...Board and Batten

Welcome to Coastal Charm and our new room!!!
We have lived in our home for nineteen years and we have re-done every room at least once, some a few times, but our foyer was never touch, until now. For years, I loved it the way it was, but two years ago I got the itch to give it a makeover. Mr.CC was not on board with the idea of removing the wallpaper in there, he LOVED IT! I loved it too, but I was ready for a change. Everything is getting a lot whiter and brighter around here, so it was time for the foyer to get her makeover. I knew I wanted board and batten in there, then I decided to not scrap the popcorn ceiling, instead I was going to plank the ceiling. Now, since we have finished the room, we can't believe that we didn't do this sooner...we LOVE IT!                                   
                                                               Blessings,
                                                                  Linda

                                                         This is a before pic.

                                            Planked ceiling, and board and batten,
                                                all in one room, oh how I love it!

                                            This beautiful old window, that I found
                                             while out pickin' back in May, found
                                                   it's home, here in the new foyer.

                                      The plank ceiling was so very easy to install.
                                      I will do another post, with a tutorial on that.

                                          She also found her permanent home here.
                                          Did I ever tell y'all, how much I paid for
                                                                   this beauty?

                                                             Are you ready?

                                            I couldn't believe my eyes when I looked
                                              at the price tag...$65.00!!! I had been
                                              searching for this exact dress form for
                                              years, but I never found one under $250.
                                              Mr. CC said I was smiling ear to ear, I
                                                      might even had a tear or two.
   
 

                                             I am keeping things simple in here.

We also, opened up this doorway to the

dining room.

                                                   All the molding was removed.
                                                   and new wider molding was
                                                                   installed.

Thanks for coming by to see what

we have done. Up next, I will share

a tutorial, on how we installed the

board and batten.

 

                       I'd love for you to stay connected with Coastal Charm!!!!
