The foyer went through quite a transformation since I built my house. Lots of DIY took place here. We enjoy keeping it simple and clean as far as decorating, but during the holidays I tend to go all out.

Where did you get the picture hanging on the wall under the stairs? I love the colors in it and it would be perfect in my dining room. Thank you!

That picture is from The Bombay Co., which is no longer in business – except they do sell their items in retail stores. I’ve actually seen Bombay Co. products in KROGER of all places.
