Another before picture

This is the entry way (and part of the living room) as the previous owners had it.  Note the orange walls...so unsettling. 

Not sure if you can see it, but they had these cross-stitched gnome pillows in their living room.  And then bunch of gnome statues around the property outside.  Randomly, they left like three for us.  This was among the many other very random things they left when they  moved out (not one, not two, but three step stools; a sander; some sort of power saw; water shoes...totally random).  Anyway, back to the entryway.  Smallest area in the house, of course, but the first thing people see and since it is open to the rest of the house, we had to pick a good wall color that flowed through to the rest of the house, and also looked good in the living room since there was no break in the walls where we could change the wall color.  Anyway, first priority was to get rid of that orange!

  1. I actually like the orange, but I can see where it is not so good in a NJ house. It is more of a So West US color. Very interesting house you have now. Always did love the houses that can be found in NJ.
