My entry is on a level all of it’s own. Once you walk in, you can either go upstairs to the dining room/kitchen/living room and 1/2 bath, or go downstairs to the master bedroom, guestroom, and full-sized bathroom. I love this little black entry table that I found at Marshall’s. I’m not crazy about how the top is decorated at the moment, but I love my green wooden basket filled with seashells that I’ve collected over the years. #firstimpressions
Hi Bren, this is such a warm, cozy entryway. Love that you have “Home Sweet Home” on the chalkboard….it makes me feel like you really love your home. The black and white rug is such a pretty accent too, and the collection of shells must bring back memories of fun times. You mentioned not loving how the top of your table is decorated. The height of the candle is nice so maybe you could place a vase or jar with flowering branches (maybe from your yard) there…just a thought.
Anne C. , thank you for the kind words. Yes, I do love my home. I really like your idea suggesting the vase w/flowering branches. I’m going to try that, thanks!
I like your entry! The black and white works really well Bren. The green basket has some really unique shells…I feel adding a bit of nature works so well in home decor.
Thanks, Nancy! I guess it’s hard to see in these pictures that the walls are yellow, but all of the woodwork is white. I like that color combination with black accents.
Split level entries are tricky but you have done a great job of making this space feel like its own little room. Your details come together to feel calming and serene, the overall effect is very welcoming. High fives to you.
A very welcoming entryway! Is that a screen door or glass, with all the pretty rings in it? Very unique! I have never seen an outside door like that!
Thank you, Crystal! Yes, that’s a screen door.
I love this entryway. It’s warm and cozy and has things that are meaningful to you — like that basket of seashells, which is perfect in that spot. I also really love your chalkboard and the way that it is framed. Very very pretty.
