Kelly of http://www.kellyskornerblog.com/ is hosting "Show Us Where You Live Friday" and for this week, the theme is Foyers and I am excited to show you ours. Some of you might already have seen it and I hope you don't mind me showing it again. It will be a lot of fun seeing others' entryways also so let's all visit Kelly and check out all of the participants' contributions.Welcome to our home!
This is what greets you when you open the door. Black slate flooring, cream tone on tone striped wallpaper and I am not sure what kind of wood frames the entry ways and the crown mouldings. To the left is the formal dining room, straight ahead is going towards the family room and to the right is the formal living room.
There's the entrance to the formal dining room
Going clockwise will lead you to this cornerwhere my little Buddha fountain sits. I think it exudes some serenity in the space.
It is hard to see but the fountain has some light emitting from its hands, which gives just the right amount of glow in the dark.
There you see the tiny light.
This is the view looking out from the family room.
Going clockwise again will take you here.

We brought her back from Grand Cayman.
A glimpse of the living room.
And now we are getting back towards the door.
I don't know if you have noticed but I do love angels and bunnies, among many other things. LOL!
I hope you enjoyed touring our foyer. Thank you all for coming and thanks to Kelly for hosting this event giving us the opportunity to show you where we live.

Beautiful and I must say the pictures are awesome. We have a round foyer and I haven't decorated it at all! Now I feel bad that I haven't done anything.

Hi Christine!
Your foyer is just stunning. I think I could fit the entire living room of the Cottage in there!
Hugs,

Thanks for the tour Christine. Everything looks beautiful. I think I could get lost in your house, it looks big!
Christine-your foyer is lovely and I can tell the entire home is, but what I love the most is that it seems to be filled with things that you love and make it uniquely you! Thanks for a peak inside the door :)
Christine, thanks for the welcome to your home. Your entry is certainly lovely and the wood trim is exceptionally beautiful. The figurine of the girl holding the vase is so charming! Linda
Gorgeous entryway! I love that you have items from you travels there.
Dear Christine...your home always feels so welcoming and looks so beautiful..filled with your wonderful collections and some of my favorite colors. You have a wonderful touch, love your new lady.. Love, Cindy
Hi Christine-
Thanks for your comment today. I really luv your foyer especially your collection of statues and wall plaques. But get this, the indoor buddha fountain you have, I also have one exactly like that. I got mine from Z Gallerie a few years ago. I'll have to take a photo of it for you and it's also sitting on a pedestal in my front porch. Happy weekend my friend!

Hey Girlfriend...
So nice of you to stop by and welcome me home!!! I missed you too! It looks like you've been having a busy time of vacationing too...I was looking down through some of the posts that I missed. Ohhhh...the Bahamas look gorgeous!!! Loved the photos of your fishing trip...that would be a blast...not that I fish but just the boat ride out and enjoying the beautiful water would be fabulous!!! Speaking of water...I see that your pool project is coming right along! It's soooo beautiful, my friend!!! It sounds like it won't be long till they have it finished...and ohhh, then comes all the fun! Yes, it'll be fun to enjoy the pool but I'm talkin' about all the poolside decor...you're going to have a blast!!!
I sure enjoyed all of your fabulous tablescapes as well!!! Girl, I have missed out on so much...I'm afraid I may never get caught up! Hehe! I'm still pretty worn out from our trip...I haven't done a thing really! eeekkkss!!!
Well Darlin'...I'm so happy that you came by...missed ya! Have a wonderful weekend!!!
Love ya,
Chari
c/x, Your home is lovely. I just found out today that I am going to have a little grandson...smiles Thanks for visiting me my friend.
Your foyer is wonderful. I love everything in it. I wish I could see more of the bench. Very, very nice.
I just love your home, Christine, there's so much to see! Glad you showed your entry again, I love seeing that!
Yes, I'll be there for SS and yes I think you should get Mr. Linky up to entice others. See you tomorrow!
