Last week, I went to The City to get a haircut, my mammogram, and to shop; and when I left my foyer looked like this. The doorway straight away is to the dining room and kitchen and the door to the left is to the living room. On the right is the wall of our coat closet.

By the time I returned home, this was the wall to the coat closet down to the studs.

The next morning, I went to have coffee with some friends, and when I returned 3 hours later; this was the wall and door to the dining room and kitchen.
A man with a crow bar can make fast work of an old closet and wall! This is something I have wanted done for a long time to improve the flow of our entry way. I'm sure the next time you see this, things will have improved when the wall and floor are all healed up. Just look at that dirt and dust. But, already I'm loving the openness and feeling of space.

Check this out! There were Fall candles; a Christmas towel that Ellen made on that amazing sewing machine of hers; four cute bunny napkin rings to use during Spring, and then four little Summer lawn chairs that my glass votive holders fit in perfectly. Then, there was the black and white apron! My 12-year old granddaughter latched onto the apron right away. She was needing a new apron to use at my house because she is getting so tall.

Ellen at Nouveau Stitch recently had an apron giveaway, and I was the winner. If you haven't visited Ellen before, hop on over to her blog. She does amazing things with a sewing machine that you will enjoy. When I received the box, it was filled with goodies to use for every season.
