Farmhouse Entry Refresh
It was time to change my entry way. For the third time. This year. I know, I know…I’m crazy. But sometimes it takes several tries to get a room just right the way you like it. And now I’ve got myself a real farmhouse entry way!
Here’s how it used to look when I first moved in. I’m not sure why this picture is so grainy.
Then I changed it to look like this. It was pretty cute but the bench and rug were starting to bug me. The rug would not stay clean enough.
I’ve wanted a jute rug for years. I’m not sure why it’s taken me so long to make the plunge and finally buy one, but I did it. And I love it. It’s the perfect farmhouse rug. It’s not super scratchy and it’s got a great texture and thickness. It did have a ‘natural’ musty smell for about a week but it’s gone now.
I also wanted a new bench. My old bench was fine but I never loved it and it just wasn’t me. So I wanted something with a little more farmhouse character. I found this beautiful X-back black bench on Walmart.com.
