Living, Etc: Entryway Wall Must-Haves

Entryways are vital in creating that all-important first impression. A great way to hint at what's around the corner, they offer a chance to set the scene, introducing your interior design style. Typically quite awkward places to decorate, their tendency to be long and narrow means we are often presented with the question of what to do with the walls - blank canvases that should be used to welcome a style into your home.

While it's not strictly on the wall, a narrow console table or radiator cover can be the perfect way to introduce a surface to the entryway for a decorative moment. Acting more like an extra shelf on the wall, they are a place to store those handy things like a bowl for keys, coins, lip balms, those smaller items you tend to grab on the go on your way out the door. They can also be a space to curate a display of your favorite pieces. When it comes to how to decorate an entryway table, think sculptural ceramics, a candle, maybe a vase with a large sprig of olive or eucalyptus to bring some greenery into the space.
