Room Two on the Schedule - Entryway and Hallway
Since I didn't have to babysit again today, I thought I would go ahead and get the entry and hall clean. I know according to my schedule I have almost two more weeks to complete these areas, but starting this weekend I am hoping to put a lot of time working on the bedroom project (yes, I really want to win one of those fantastic prizes!). I figured that today was a good day to get it done. Little E was in a very good mood, and not too demanding. All signs pointed to go clean. :)
Here are the before pictures:
It doesn't look too bad but there are things I notice that others may not - dust!
Entryway Cleaning List:
- dust mop & damp mop walls
- clean blinds & window
- dust shelf & contents
- vacuum rug
- scrub floor & stairs
{need to get paint & touch-up wall, baseboards & rail}
Hallway Cleaning List:
- dust mop & damp mop walls and doors
- clean light fixture
- dust shelf
- windex picture & mirror (vinegar & water solution)
- vacuum rug
- scrub floor
Here they are all clean & shiny:
I added some cute little Valentines decorations to the mirrored shelf:
I would love to get a new runner for the hall & a new mat for the entryway. The craft closet door needs a new knob. The wall in between the two doors on the right hand side is blank and I have no idea what to put there.
The wall on the left side currently holds this picture from our wedding day
That is going to be replaced with a collage similar to this:
I am planning on making this console table to place under the collage

Do you have any ideas of what would look great on that right wall? Or any other decorating ideas for these two spaces are more than welcome. :)
