CREATING A FOYER
(NOW PRONOUNCED FOY-AY)

26 NOVEMBER 2011

Ph

So I'd bought the chair table
that matches the slate-insert coffee table.

But we don't have chairs in the living room;
it's too high for the couch
and too small/rectangular
to put where the couches meet.

What to do with it, besides send it back?

Ph

Then I had the idea to put it
where the little bench
that Neal spent HOURS
painting used to be . . .
I'm now looking for
a mirror to go above it,
and voilá, instant FOY-YA!


Mr. PutItTogether was then called upon to, what else, put it together . . .

. . . with the help of his faithful crew, Cari & Daisy2Legs.

Ph


Chrissi-One-Eye is the first to notice new furniture . . .

Ph

. . . and she decides to lie down and watch it for a while.

Ph

In theory, if we both leave our keys on that tray,
we won't ever lose them. In theory . . . .


WHAT does every FOY-YA need?

Ph

. . . which our friend Nancy Kaye sent to us.


Fresh flowers, of course . . .

Ph

Aren't they beautiful?

Ph

Every foyer needs a good mirror,
and I found one by Sauer,
same as the bookcases.

It's so heavy, though,
we aren't sure we'll
be able to hang it up!
