How to Design Your Own Entryway

Designing your own entryway is a fun, creative process that lets you express yourself. Here are some tips to make your foyer a stylish, welcoming space that feels so you:

1. How do I make my entryway look nice?

  • ● Start with a focal point: Choose a statement piece like a decorative mirror, a piece of art or a chic console table.
  • ● Consider lighting: Install a pendant light or wall sconces to provide ample illumination and enhance the ambiance of your entryway.
  • ● Add a touch of greenery: Incorporate indoor plants or fresh flowers to bring life and freshness to your entryway. Bonus: plants can help improve air quality and create a welcoming atmosphere.
  • ● Keep it organized: Use functional storage solutions like a shoe rack, umbrella stand or a wall-mounted key holder to keep your entryway tidy and clutter-free.

2. What should I put in an entryway foyer?

  • ● Practical furniture: Consider adding a bench or a console table with drawers or shelves to provide storage options for items like keys and accessories.
  • ● Welcome mat: Place a stylish welcome mat at the entrance of your foyer to greet guests and help keep out dirt.
  • ● Wall hooks or a coat rack: Install wall hooks or a coat rack to hang coats, bags and hats, keeping them organized and easily accessible.
  • ● Decorative accents: Display decorative items like vases, candles or framed photos on your console table or shelves to personalize the space and add visual interest.

3. What do I do with an unusual entryway?

  • ● Embrace uniqueness: Take the opportunity to create a memorable and eclectic space. Consider unconventional furniture or artwork that complements the unconventional shape or size of the entryway.
  • ● Maximize functionality: Focus on practicality by incorporating storage solutions that make the most of the available space. Utilize vertical storage with wall-mounted shelves or install a narrow console table for storage and display.
  • ● Use mirrors: Mirrors can visually expand and brighten up a small or awkwardly shaped entryway. Place a mirror strategically to reflect light and create a sense of openness.

4. How do I decorate an entrance without a foyer?

  • ● Create a designated zone: Use a decorative room divider, a rug, or a piece of furniture to visually define the entrance area and create a sense of arrival.
  • ● Wall art or gallery: Adorn the walls with artwork, a gallery wall, or decorative decals to add personality and style to your entrance.
  • ● Floating shelves or wall-mounted organizers: Install floating shelves or wall-mounted organizers to provide storage options for small items like keys, sunglasses and mail.

Designing your own entryway is an opportunity to showcase your personal style while creating a welcoming space for you and your guests. Pick furniture pieces and decor that you love, and you can't go wrong.
