Earlier this year Portland Monthly Magazine featured the first home of Jim and Andrea Frost, a farmhouse in the Alberta Arts District of North Portland. While the tastefully redone house furnished with thrifted furniture is plenty charming, we really like their entryway.
The couple screened off the front door area from the main room with a slatted wall made of old flooring cordons (an idea we've long wanted to steal). The slats provide the perfect framework for a rotating selection of artwork to greet the young family as they come through the front door.
