How I gave our small coat closet a makeover that is both cute and functional for our entryway for under $60!
Tiny entry closet -> functional & cute drop spot 👌🏻 I LOVE a nice foyer, but our home just DIDN’T have a grand, jaw-dropping one (or one at all 😂) Right when you walked through our front door you saw this small coat closet. It had two shelves but not even a bar or hook for coats 😑
$60 Small Coat Closet Makeover Steps:
Took off the door (YouTube it, it’s pretty easy)
Painted what wasn’t getting wallpaper
Added removable wallpaper (not fun but cute, $34 Target)
Creating our mid-century hygge bedroom: Hello all! My husband and I purchased our first home in December 2020! The 1951 home is full of natural light, arches, and little touches of character. My first step was to paint everything white! I used Sherwin Willians Alabaster for the walls and it’s perfect. My inspiration for our home came from my love for mid-century furnishings and the hygge lifestyle!
hyg·ge
noun
a quality of coziness and comfortable conviviality that engenders a feeling of contentment or well-being (regarded as a defining characteristic of Danish culture).
Working with the warm white paint color I mixed in creams, ivory, and bright white for a classic feel that still gave interest. Most of our bedding can be found at Target! I love the Hearth and Hand with Magnolia collections so much (like everyone) and they did an amazing job with this solid quilt and linen blend euro pillows! I also found the perfect little lumbar pillow there, Oversize Lumbar Woven Global Pillow – Threshold™
Adding Texture | Mid-century Hygge Bedroom
While I LOVE white, I needed to give the space some dimension. Texture is a big contributor when you are using a lot of the same color family. The Waffell Diamond Textured Trellis Tassel Area Rug from @rugsusaand the tassel throw blanket (Home Goods) add to the hygge bedroom vibes!
Adding Color | Mid-century Hygge Bedroom
While all the base elements are neutrals, I added pops of color in pieces I can easily change depending on my mood and the season. The painting you see on the wall (TJMaxx, see similar options below) is where I worked from and added in some pink, tan, and green in the plants. I also made sure to pick a mid-century bed frame that was wood for extra warmth.
Adding Accents | Mid-century Hygge Bedroom
For the nightstands, I actually found these at Home Goods for $30 each! The decor for them is either thrifted or from Home Goods as well.
Dress picks from Target that are perfect to transition into fall and under $40! About my lookL I am wearing #4- Women’s Puff Short Sleeve Tiered Dress – A New Day™ in Burgundy in a size Large (it is oversized so go with your normal or size down). My shoes were purchased secondhand and are Everlane “The Traner” sneakers. Earrings are from ASOS earlier this year! Glasses are from Warby Parker.
