DIY SMALL ENTRYWAY MAKEOVER!
DIY SMALL ENTRYWAY MAKEOVER | BEFORE + AFTER
Welcome to our house! Our small entryway got an extreme DIY makeover and I’m so stoked to share it with all of you! This small space took weeks of work, but it was all so worth it!
I am so grateful to my amazing friends at DAP Products for helping me make this space come to life! This small space took so much work, but I couldn’t have done it without them!
This project is sponsored by DAP Products.

It’s stunning!! Love the floors they are so beautiful.
Amazing transformation 😍
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL
You did an amazing job modernizing the space. From the door , the accent wall the nook,floors…..you have great skills and your home is coming together beautifully
I just installed that same front door. It’s a total game changer! So much more light in the room. Love the feature wall, I don’t have a wall to put it on, I was considering using old blind slats and putting similar design on my doors.
I love the new front door dance! 😂This project turned out beautiful 😍
Ok Sam i am with your dad on fixing the corvette….lol… But those floors are like WOW!!! That front door looks awesome,no amazing!!!
Can you plaster over the uneven drywall to smooth it out rather than remove it? A professional plasterer could get it perfect.
OMG. What a transformation! I absolutely love it sooooo much.
Glass in the door is a big no-no where I live. Robbers can easily break the glass and unlock the door to gain access.
Love that front door! Amazing how smaller changes can make such a big difference! Also, that door doesn’t look bad on the outside of the house. You probably think looks worse than it actually does. I think it goes well enough until you get new siding.
Una bella escalera hacia el Cielo! quedó hermosooo, congratulation! Adoré las repisas de madera y su decoración. Yo pintaría nubes discretas a los costados de la escalera.
I always enjoy your videos and just find this one great again. You always do such amazing challenges and they are a win win.
I love the new door, what’s the name of that door style?
It looks amazing! First time watching your channel and I SUBSCRIBED!
WOW…. That floor looks amazing! Why did the previous owners put laminate on top? Such a shame!
Love the video but way to many spoiler alerts 😆
Loving the new entryway woo! Always doing an amazing job.
Hey Sam, love the work you do. Keep it up. Love from Belgium ❤️.
I was watching one of my favorite sitcoms and saw your doppelgänger! Jenny Slate – except you are prettier!
Kudos to your drywall skills but the zig zaggy wall is not appealing.
That entryway is 100% better. The floors are way better than that laminate too. The accent wall is an improvement and creates interest. I am interested in seeing the willow oak shelves up close and getting some more info on that. I want to replace our floating shelves in the office and I am thinking of making some with this oak you used and I am liking the dark stain on it. Can you show more of it in another video and expand on the type of stain you used?
I talk to myself during projects too!!! And the objects! And any other time I’m by myself 😂
Is there a link or info for hand rail?
Sam, crazy how a few small changes drop a huge impact. I think you did awesome within the constraints you had. Hoping all is well Homie, Dirt Jersey out!!
The worst front door placement for moving furniture
I had an idea about your stair dilemma. You could continue the pattern on the other side (the feature wall) with a thinner material (like screen molding or something similar) that is the same width as the boards on the accent wall.
If you line them up the same on the other side, it might look like the Feature wall boards go all the way through and you "plastered" between them. That would give you and "excuse" to use a thin trim on the uneven edges you were concerned with.
Everything is coming together beautifully 😍👍💪
mudding and taping is a skill that you build over time. if you have to do more, no big deal. you are awesome! i suck at it depending on what kind of joint i’m dealing with. the corner beads and choosing what option is one of the harder joints, plus you pulled out the whole jamb and frame and have old plaster walls like me so it makes it even harder to get smooth. you did a great job and kept it real so i think it will help more people who have never done this and might be nervous about it. thanks for sharing with us!!! great job 🙂
I love this update! Everything looks amazing and really vibes together well.
But, I am concerned for that mirror. I assume you have some sort of doorstop or way to keep the door from hitting it, but it isn’t visible to me, so I can just picture someone swinging open the door and just destroying the mirror.
Wow big difference I love ❤️ the door great 👍🏽 choice n now it’s so much brighter I love it
Can you do my diy projects to make and sell for profit?
I love ur dad! He is the Ying to ur Yang! Everything looks great. N thank u Jordan for ur service.
Stunning!
So so soooo very well done.
You are so unbelievably talented. Your entryway came out gorgeous. I wish I had half the skills you do. Where do you recommend another new homeowner start making DIY improvements without any prior experience or a buddy to help? I have so many projects I want to do but no confidence I can do any of them myself. 😔
I’m so in love with what you do. I’m able to get so many ideas and tips that I didn’t know and they are helping me. I’m in love with that live edge shelf also. Knowing me, I would have kept it the natural color, but it looks good with the stain as well. Can you tell me where you got your live edge shelves?
Amazed at what a few changes made to that area. The mirror is perfect! Great job!
Ok I got chills when you revealed the new front door! It looks FANTASTIC!
Wow! What a gorgeous transformation.
Oh my gods that FLOOR!
Wow!! Just wow!!, Beautiful Renovation ❤️💯, Very Inspiring ❤️💯
I love the new front door!!!!!
I love the handrail!! Where did you get it from?
Can you link the handrail? Please and thank you!
The front door was a great idea. So much light coming through 👍🏾. Amazing, I looking forward in seeing your next project 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I teleported back to New York just to help with this project
It turned out great! One question: have you been watching Schitt’s Creek? You’re giving me Alexis/David vibes in this video. I’m here for it! 😁💕
👍👍👍👍
I wouldn’t say that the front door doesn’t match the outside at all. But I LOVE the front door!! Wonderful makeover 🙂
I am so happy that I found you this morning! Cant wait to check out some more of your videos. Can you share where you got your tan plaid jacket because I am in love with it!! Thank you!!
