Hall Pictures.

Remember these pictures? I've had a lot of requests to see the "after pictures" and I've finally got the room almost pulled together. I just need to change the overhead lighting and some coat hooks (which Jake is protesting) and it should be just the way I want it.


Ta-Da!

That looks absolutely AMAZING! I love your style! It looks like it could be straight out of a home decor magazine. I love, love, love it!

Lindsey said...

i just came across your blog and I am in love! I love stripes too but when I do them the paint always seems to bleed under the tape. do you have any tricks on how to make sure that doesnt happen?

This is exactly what I want to do in our upstairs loft. I tried to explain it to my husband (who's not quite as visual). Now I can show him what I mean and I'm sure he'll love it! Stunning!

I just stumbled upon your blog and will now be an instant follower. I adore the way you have decorated your home. The charkboard paint on the curved wall is soooooooooo cool!! I have just started using charkboard paint on almost everything and it is becoming an addiction! Thank you for the posting!

SHUT THE FRONT DOOR!
What a boldly fantastic entryway!

I can I just buy your house, instead of redoing mine?

Jazmine Smith said...

Love the chalkboard wall. Did you make that with some sort of blackboard paint or did you buy it? I'm a teacher and would love to know how to achieve this look for my home... as an accent wall or something.

Thank you.

Jazmine,
You can buy chalkboard paint at almost any harware store either paintable or sprayable. You can even get it tinted to almost any color you want. I bought mine at Home Depot.
Happy painting!

Kelly said...

can you share the grey color paint you used?? it's so perfect!

Noelle said...

Michelle - Your eye for design is truly amazing and inspiring! I recently bought a house and did a total re-do, but have been stumped lately on decor. You have just inspired me beyond belief!! Gotta go shopping... :-D

P.S. Your blog has just become a fave of mine!

Kelley said...

bless your soul for doing horizontal stripes on curved walls. what's the trick for leveling them on the curves? it's gorgeous by the way!

Michelle (Three Men and a Lady) said...

Kelley,
I used a big long level and when every 2 feet to make sure I was level. You can also use a lazer level that sticks to wall.

Sketch42 said...

Im actually really sorry that I posted your pictures without crediting you! I lost track of where I was taking them from...

I am AMAZED at how gorgeous your home is! You did a great job.

Lizet said...

I have "stalked" your blog for a while. I love every design idea you post!! I'm looking for table lamps like this one, but having a bit of a hard time finding. Would you mind sharing where you got them? thanks! Lizet

Michelle (Three Men and a Lady) said...

Talbe is from Walmart. I sprayed it white.

Becky said...

How long did it take you to do that area? I think it's amazing! I am currently working on my spare bedroom to add one wall with stripes.

Amanda said...

I had some extra time today (whats that?) and read through your blog. I am so impressed with your style and the ways that you incorporate simple yet bold lines into a clean and bright space. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! Proud of you, old friend. I hope you get this Sam-E job. You so deserve it.

jenchristine said...

Wow! I am so in awe. I've never seen a hallway that looked to perfect.

Leah said...

The layout of your home looks very unique. I'd love to see a floor plan. :)

Ashley@ DesignBuildLove.co said...

absolutely stunning is about all I can say!!!

Anonymous said...

WOW! What a strong and striking space! Love it! I have been searching high and low for a bistro tables similar to what you have in your hall (the one with the metal/iron) legs. Would you mind sharing where you found that?

Many thanks!
