I realized that if I keep waiting for some free time it'll never happen and I'll never get to do any of the ideas that are percolating around in my tiny brain! Even though I don't have days and days to do anything elaborate I did manage an entire day off and decided that was enough time to perk up my entryway.

We have a very small entry - the house is open concept so as soon as you walk in, you're seeing almost the entire main floor. I decided that a little punch of color and whimsy was in order.
So I taped off a huge rectangle... painted it purple...
Taped off 12" stripes - cause everyone looks thinner in stripes, right?
Then, painted those stripes a darker shade of purple - oh, yea.... lookin' snazzy!
Now to start the finishing part... let's add a shelf!!
Trim around the edges gives it a little depth and looks more finished.
Not bad for a days work! And it really brightens up the entrance to the humble abode!
Mr. Chuckles looks so much happier now that his view has been improved!
