Who doesn’t love a grand entrance?  A foyer is the first impression of one’s home, and it has the added responsibility of being practical too.  So we decided to break down what makes an impressive entry.  Take a look (click on photos for sources):

Though varying in style, these inspirational foyers reveal some common elements:

• Console table
• Table lamp
• Baskets for storage
• Mirror to check yourself before you leave or greet visitors
• Plant or floral arrangement

Check out some of our favorite elements to build your own grand entrance:

Depending on whether you’re going for a minimalistic or more traditional look, finish off your foyer table styling by adding objects of interest.  Books, candles, trays, framed photos and catch-alls for keys, etc. are easy additions that many of us already have.  Ready for your grand entrance?
