Secret of Domestic Bliss #65...ADORABLE ENTRYWAY

When you first enter into a home or an apartment you really want to be impressed right? Well, I highly recommend that we all amp up the wow factor in our entryway. It is absolutely the most essential spot for style. Even in my little NYC studio, with no space, I still made major impact with just stripes and a few photos on the wall. It's easy to add a few things for style, here are some tips for inspiration...

I love the pop of white molding on this hot pink door and a mirror to maximize the space.
The coral walls and pop of aqua is so dreamy. 
Wallpaper or paint with any of kind pattern works absolute wonders. 
Black is always a favorite of mine and this glam gold mirror is so simple yet packs so much style.
I think I have a thing for stripes in the entryway..

Love your examples. I've been thinking of a graphic black and white striped wallpaper in my entrance with a big gold mirror. Problem is that you are walking into a very narrow hallway that faces the stairs with not enough space for a table. (I live in an Edwardian semi in the UK if that helps). It seems in every gorgeous example I see, there's always a little table for things like keys and the like. I don't require coat hooks because I have a separate coat closet but I'm a little stuck in terms of adding more interest other than a mirror and some pictures because of the space.

Any other suggestions you or your readers might have would be lovely :) x

I couldn't agree more- an entryway is such a great place to set the impression for the rest of your space. I love interesting elements and details in an entryway!

Love love love these ideas - I want desperately to amp up the charm in my entry way, but my apartment opens to a narrow hallway with very little room to do much but maybe hang something like pictures or a mirror on the wall :(

Thank you, these ideas are so inspiring. I have been wanting to redo the entryway and this has given me the push I needed to get started. Might send you some photos if it turns out well :)
