The Hallway Makeover Reveal

This hallway was a huge pain point for me after finishing up the entire master suite. I hated walking out of my beautiful bedroom oasis into this sad hallway. I felt like it was just begging for a special treatment. And to be BOLD! Here’s my hallway makeover reveal!

The Before…

The whole space just felt a little sad, dark, and dated. First, I removed the old carpet and baseboards. I replaced the carpet with some beautiful engineered hardwoods by Cali Floors to match the flooring in my bedroom. I then added new chunky baseboards. To add in some depth and dimension, I installed crown moulding with picture railing under it and painting the new trim and ceiling Anew Grey by Sherwin Williams.

Next, I installed this beautiful bold wallpaper by Hygge & West and painted the baseboards and door trim to match the ceiling and ceiling trim. I removed the old ceiling air return vent and replaced it with a custom magnetic return vent cover to make the vent feel like more of a decorative accent. Additionally, I replace the string on the attic door with some new hardware for an updated look.

Also, I built a custom wood console table to go in the awkward corner. I wanted a place for a lamp to sit for cozy lighting. I built it inspired by an out of budget table!

The After

I am so in love with how this hallway turned out! It feels like a swanky boutique hotel and I LOVE THAT! I adore the boldness, the quirkiness, the charm. And I love the way that it feels to walk through it and into all of the finished rooms upstairs.

I am so happy with how it turned out!

    Cass-
    Looks great!
    Did you hang your artwork using the molding? I can’t tell from photos

      Hi Melissa!

      Yes I did use the picture rail moudling to hang these pictures. It’s hard to see in the images – but the tops of the photos sort of come off the wall. You can see the chain right above there!

  2. Your point of view caught my eye and was very interesting. Thanks. I have a question for you.
