Foyer

I think this is where the previous owners spent most of their time.  The only cable outlet in the entire house was located in the foyer,  makes sense who has the time to make it all the way to the living room when there are Matlock reruns to watch. 

Sybil's mom painted the pelican and the table is my old desk just turned around to hide the drawer.

Sybil picked up a pair of these at River Market Antique Mall, they match our front door almost perfectly.

Above is 1 of 2 light fixtures that where from our original lighting choices.  We ended up compromising on about 10 other fixtures to stay within budget.  I'm glad we keep this one it's from Pottery Barn, it has a cool Edison Bulb that doesn't get too bright but gives the fixture a nice old school look.  I think we will eventually move the table, go with a round table centered directly below the light and add some furniture or built-in for coats and umbrellas.
