  11. Hi Tracie, I'm a new follower. My hallway looks very much like your before picture and I am SO SO over the red. Just checked the Behr paint website and can't seem to find a color with the name Light French Grey, do you happen to have the #. It looks so nice with the board and batten. I think it would really lighten up my foyer. Thanks!

  12. Thanks so much!!! Natural Area Rugs online is where I ordered the sisal carpet treads from….

  13. Wow I love that new color. I am so over the red in my dining room. I need to come up with something like that. I'm going to get that color and see if it works in my mud room we are doing this weekend…Centsational Girl's board and batten treatment too.

    I have loved following your foyer makeover! Thanks for all your inspiration. I will be featuring you today :D Have the best day ever.

  33. Thank you for sharing your foyer make over. Your foyer/dining room layout is almost identical to mine and I have been hunting the internet for inspiration with no luck but I finally found it! Thank you!

    I would love to know if the dining room is the same paint color? It looks a shade or two darker but that could just be the lighting.

    Thanks again for the inspiration!
