Finally, a foyer table

While Grandma "Sue Anne" was here, we tried to make our home a little less dorm like, and more grown up. With starters, we rearranged our bookshelves so it's not so hodge podge. We hung a bunch of pictures and framed three more to be hung up in the hallway, living room and family room. And most importantly, we now have a true foyer welcoming you as you walk in rather than a sofa table on top of a tv stand, some pictures and an old vase that collected dust rather than invited you into our home.

My mom purchased most of the items from local antique stores. My favorite is the super cool lamp, which is not an antique, and the Persian rug. The chair is pretty neat too and matches the rug well. It's an antique from the 1800s.
