Paintable Walls

Wink by Wolf-Gordon.

Turn any paintable surface into a dry erase board!

For just under $200 bucks you can have your very own full wall transformed into a dry erase board. I think this is by far my favorite new discovery!!!

How it works and where you can use it:

Wink is a clear coating that is applied over any paintable surface and instantly transform that surface into a fun area for endless possibilities. Perfect for work environments, who have meetings and don't want to dedicate a wall to a marker board or presentation wall. Perfect for a children's play room. Perfect for any space to simply turn a boring wall into a wall with some personality!

It's no question that entry ways and foyers are one of the most important rooms in any home, if not the most important. It is the first thing to greet us as we enter ones home, and the last room we will see as we exit.

It is your chance to make a first impression, and usually sets the stage for the rest of your home.

Your entry way or foyer should depending on the size of your room have several key items.

-Seating

-Table

-Mirror

-Umbrella stand

-Bowl or Key ring

-Floor Mat

-Great light fixture

Take a look at some of these great examples of Entry ways and Foyers.

Well why not dress your table up to wow your relatives this seasons! Get inspired, get creative! Pull out grandma's old china and silverware then mix in some fun modern napkins or a bright table cloth. Or use fruit or a signature dish to dress each table setting for when your guests arrive. The possibilities are endless!
