Hey guys! I came across an image on Pinterest the other day that I was super inspired by- this light and bright coastal entryway:

(The original article is from Bria Hammel Interiors, and features a truly beautiful home tour you have to see!)

Isn’t it just gorgeous? I love the mix of textures (the basket, lamp and lampshade, and of course, the shiplap) and the coastal inspired look that would work in a transitional or farmhouse look as well. I thought it would be a great space for my next Make it Happen for $1000 post!

Here’s how I did it.
