I Can Make It: September 2010

It's week 3 and I'm starting to see the room coming together! Making a Pony Wall Cool Pony walls, or half walls, are so 80's....or 60's....or.....? I'm pretty sure no one said they are amazingly

Over the weekend we tackled panelling the half wall in our front entryway and I can't believe the difference that it's made. It one of those projects that when we were finished we asked ourselves, "why didn't we do this sooner!!" because we love it that much! It only took about 24 hours to finish, making this a very fast and doable project for others to tackle! Keep reading to see how it turned out! In case you have forgotten, this is how our front hallway looked when we moved in. Can we say…

In home design, it seems that everything old becomes new again, and it’s time for pony walls to have their comeback. Pony walls never truly went away, but they have fallen out of popularity in the last couple of decades. A feature of McMansion layouts and new-build architecture, many modern buyers tear down pony walls in their renovations rather than embrace them.
