Simple Summer Entryway + Before & After Video
Well today is the day folks! I’m headed to the dentist bright and early this morning to get my permanent veneers done after a month in the temporaries. I’m a solid mix of nerves/excitement/relief. But mostly I’m so happy this process is finally coming to an end. I’m just ready for it to be overrrrrrrrrr. This has been years in the making and I’m honestly still kinda shocked I got up the nerve to do it in the first place. Definitely giving myself a high five for this one! Anyway, let’s chat about decor, shall we?! I just styled my entryway for summer and I thought it would be fun to share. I also have a cool before and after video of this space.
I feel like since moving into this house last summer my style has definitely simplified a bit. I don’t have as much room for extra stuff, so that has really made me take a more minimal approach to decor. This summer entry way is super simple, but I love it!
This round lidded basket is such a pretty color for summer! It’s a soft peachy pink, which goes really well with that pretty floral pillow.
I moved this antique cabinet back in my entryway area and I’m so happy she’s back! Remember this from the old house?! I actually took the glass door off and I love how it looks.
And here’s a fun video of this space and how it’s transformed since we moved in:
Well I hope you enjoyed this post and maybe got a few ideas for your own home. See you back here sooooon! xo

> SarahI just found your website today and I’m LOVING IT so far! When I saw how cute your entryway was, I thought, “Well of course it’s adorable – look at how cute that nook is. It isn’t hard to have a cute house when it has such awesome built-in nooks.”
So when I watched that video, my jaw dropped! That was just an ordinary closet before! 😱 You have SUCH an eye for this kind of thing. Huge kudos to you.
