The entryway or foyer is the first thing your guests notice when they come into home. You can create a wonderful first impression by decorating this area of your house. A number of furniture ideas can be implemented to make the entryway look more beautiful and captivating. Below is a list of some of the interesting options that you may want to try.
- Shadow box: A shadow box is basically an enclosed glass-front case in which you can put objects pertaining to a particular theme. Use a series of shadow boxes on the walls to make your foyer look enchanting. Fill it with personal photos or memorabilia for a lovely effect.
Table and chair: If you have a small corner in your entryway, simply place a table and chair in this area. You can also opt for a single chair which can be covered with a fabric having an animated pattern to add coziness to this spot. This will have a striking impact on the guests who come to your home. - Bench: A bench can also be a good furniture choice for the entryway. It is even better if you buy a furniture piece that can double up as a storage option as well. You can store a lot of things in the built-in space and the kids can also use the bench to sit comfortably.
- Dresser: A spacious dresser can become the focal point of your foyer. You can store your hats, scarves and gloves in it. You can use ornamental mirrors in dressers to decorate the walls of your entryway. Consider grouping the mirrors such that they create an overall dramatic effect.
- Antique furniture: You can provide a vintage look to your entryway by using antique chairs or a sofa. Traditional art pieces can also provide a good visual appeal to your entryway.
Additional Options
- Use bold colors: You can use bold colors to define the walls of your foyer as they radiate warmth and look inviting to the guests. Have eye-catching display on the walls to captivate the attention of your visitors.
- Table lamp: You can even use a table lamp for an inviting radiance. Make sure the lamp does not look gaudy or overpower all the other elements in the foyer. Opt for a sleek console table and a lamp with a slim base for the perfect ambience.
- Lighting: Hang an attractive chandelier at an appropriate height to create a visually appealing look.
