Help!

This is not a Valentine's Day post. I just got the pictures from my phone finally put on my computer so I can ask for internet help.

You see, there's this wall:

And it's the wall you see right as you open up our front door. It's next to the kitchen and there are some pretty good sized nail/screw holes in the wall that you can see in this picture if you look closely.

So here's the thing, I went shopping to fix this wall and make it more welcoming. I came home with a few things which fixed this wall:

And made it look like this:


And then our window which had some huge screw holes by it was fixed up and made to look like this:

And I even found a little something to add to our kitchen:

(in case you were wondering, I am not talking about the shelf above the sink, I was talking about the sign above the cupboards)

But ... after finding all that, the one thing I thought would work for that blasted wall was too skinny. Sooo ..... Help me figure out what to do with this wall:

Please?
