In the foyer, an old hardwood floor was re-planed and repurposed to create an accent wall. A unique metal-art wall hanging was custom created by Jimmy Don Holmes of JDH Iron Designs in Crawford, Texas. The piece was given to homeowner Bill Graham by Chip and Joanna as a tribute to his service to the country.
