Tips + Tricks Tuesday-Entryway Ideas

THEME OF THE WEEK: ENTRYWAY IDEAS

An entryway should be three things: chic, comfortable, and most importantly, inviting. The entry way sets the tone for the entire house, so naturally, you want your guests to feel at home, but also feel as if they are entering a staged home! Today, we have a few tips to create a functional but inviting space that is both efficient + fun!

FLOW

The flow of the entry reflects the overall style of your home! The entryway welcomes your guests to your home, and you want them to feel completely warm + welcomed! Keeping the style of the design of your home and adding a twist can keep it interesting but also create the overall flow of your house!

Function

Although the design of your entryway is significant, keeping practicality in mind is also an important factor to having a successful entry way! Adding accessories such as hooks, baskets, and mirrors can bring the function to life while keeping your space chic and stylish.

COLOR + TEXTURE

The color scheme of your entryway is where you can get truly creative! The goal is to achieve a cohesive style that doesn’t necessarily have to match every other aspect of your home. This is the time to ad those subtle pops of color + texture with vases, throws + pillows!

BALANCE + SCALE

Choosing pieces and accessorizing with a console or side table, keep in mind that these items need to compliment each other! The mix of different shapes and sizes will offer an attractive look to give your entry personality, and also create a symmetrical look.
