Let Us Revisit – THE GAME PLAN! WANTS & NEEDS
Please do not start any project without a plan. I REPEAT! Every project must start with a game plan!! When it comes to our hallway we need:
- Update and add new lighting (on dimmers of course) by replacing builder-grade boob lights with sculptural lighting and possibly installing a new light fixture placement.
- Continue the flooring from the bedroom into the hallway as we currently have a concrete-painted floor. We purchased extra during our bedroom updates a while back.
- Remove, replace, and add trim, base, and crown moldings for architectural interest.
- Replace ALL doors and change all hardware. We plan to replace all of them at some point, but just focus on the two main ones in the south view as they are focal points.
- Paint doors, walls, and all trim in a bold color to make it stand out and set the tone for other rejuvenation projects in our home.
- Install wallpaper on walls and ceilings for pattern play. make them smooth. Even considering a texture for above the chair rail.
- Add overflow storage from my office since I work from home. Not sure if I want a credenza or a bookshelf yet, but it will be very functional.
UPDATE: added two storage pieces. - Add texture by doing a DIY wall paint treatment to look like wallpaper. UPDATE: After a bit of trial decide it was too much texture on top of two bold pattern wallpapers.
- Add bold art and impactful accessories.
- Find an antique rug runner to be an exclamation point on the entire space and add some necessary softness underfoot.
