Foyer – Before

Foyer’s “Before” – This is still my favorite room of the house

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Foyer’s view looking down to the door – We need to fix the hundred year old lock on this door which is turning out to be more complex than you might think.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Foyer’s mantle – We started referring to the beautiful hand-painted tile work on this mantle that depicts two women picnicking (I think) as “The sad ladies”. I think they are sad because they’re tired of listening to us argue about what color to paint the foyer.

 

 

 

 

Another gorgeous view of the stairs with the fantastic statue light.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I’m not sure what this and while it’s an interesting piece I don’t feel it goes with the house. Though from the increasing number of guest surveys I may be the only one who feels this way… regardless, I am determined this not be in the “After” picture.
