Integrated into this entryway is much of our life. The quilt on the wall behind the bench, was made by my oldest daughter Alyssa. Many pieces from our jumpers, blouses, and dresses and other creative projects from previous years are sewn into this wall hanging quilt.
Two special pillows on the bench in the entryway. The "Rejoice" pillow on the left was made for me for Christmas by my youngest daughter Ana. The "Give Thanks" pillow on the right was a gift from friends who live in Vermont.
Then in an opposite corner; pantry shelves of some of our bulk food alongside gardening and animal care books. These shelves tell a lot about our days here... living the country life.
Several friendly books have helped us with many an animal and garden crises.
I am thankful for this multipurpose room where many visitors are greeted.

Good afternoon, Annette,
What a cozy and inviting home entryway :) When we can incorporate part of who we are into our living spaces, it is somehow richer and feels more lovely to me. Thank you for sharing a bit of who you are and what is meaningful in your life. As I look at the pillows, I am wondering if the 'Rejoice' pillow is Red-work'? Very homey and nice.
Dear Annette,
What a lovely entrance..your home signals that family is important. It is warm and inviting; thanks for sharing some of what is important to you in life. I noticed the little 'Rejoice' pillow. Is that called red-work? May your home be a haven of peace this week.
Thanks ladies..great encouragements for me to keep journaling this way.
