First Impressions Matter: How to Style a Pinterest-Worthy Entryway
Your entryway is the first thing people see when they walk into your home—so why not make it memorable? Whether it’s a grand foyer or a narrow hallway, your entry sets the tone for the rest of your space. It's where style meets function, and with just a few thoughtful touches, you can make it both beautiful and welcoming.
You don’t need a massive space or a full remodel to create an entryway that feels like it belongs on Pinterest. All it takes is the right combination of furniture, décor, and personality.
Start with an anchor piece, like a console table, a slim bench, or a small storage cabinet. This grounds the space and gives you a place to style around. From there, layer in a mirror or statement artwork—something eye-catching that adds height and personality. Mirrors are especially great for small or dark entryways because they reflect light and make the space feel larger.
Then, focus on functional beauty. A ceramic bowl for keys, a stylish tray for mail, or a woven basket for shoes helps keep things tidy without sacrificing style. Add a lamp or wall sconce for a soft, welcoming glow, and don’t forget a touch of greenery—a small plant, potted olive tree, or vase of fresh stems brings life to the space.
What’s Trending in Entryway Design Right Now?
If you’re looking for inspiration, here are a few entryway trends we’re loving in 2025:
Curved Shapes: Rounded mirrors, arched consoles, and soft edges bring warmth and a modern organic feel.
Textured Neutrals: Think cane, rattan, distressed wood, and linen in warm, neutral tones for that earthy, calming vibe.
Statement Lighting: Small chandeliers, sculptural sconces, or unique table lamps elevate the space with personality.
Layered Rugs: Try a neutral base rug with a patterned runner layered on top—great for adding depth and softness.
Vintage Touches: Incorporate one-of-a-kind antique or vintage-inspired items like a mirror or catchall tray to make your entry feel curated, not cookie-cutter.
These trends work beautifully in both modern and traditional homes, and they’re easy to pull off with the right pieces—many of which you can find right here in our store!
