Project :: House Entrance

by Nathan on Oct.27, 2009, under my projects

Finally got the front  inside entrance finished up, it started its life as a closet and now houses some plants and a bit of art work.  I had gone over a lot of different options in my head, from tile, to a bamboo tree and then came up with this design.  Pretty happy about it, and even happier about the over all price of the product. Ended up spending about 50 bucks in materials, with about 6 steps to get the final product.
