How to Design a Beautiful Entryway
Walk this way!
The entryway is the first thing people see when they step foot inside your home. It should create a moment, and set the stage for what they’ll see beyond the doorway.
Here are some tips below on how to achieve just that:
Get rid of the clutter- use baskets and shelving as needed
Be brave artistically- feature a great piece of artwork, dramatic plantscaping, unexpected color or textures
Good lighting- enough of it, with a dimmer
Make it functional- is there a place to sit and take shoes off and on, a place to drop keys and mail, a place to hang coats?
Make it proportional- that entry rug better be the right size
Make it personal- family heirlooms, photos, a favorite candle, flowers
Don’t forget a mirror!
