( Inviting Entrance Halls )
The Entrance Hall is one of the most important spaces when it comes to decorating your home as this is the first thing people see when they visit. Unfortunately, this space is one of the most forgotten about and neglected spaces when we re-decorate.
I find that a lot of people don't realise the potential in their Entrance Halls or feel that they shouldn't spend the money here as it's just a passing space. The truth is that you don't have to spend a fortune in this area to create a welcoming space that is warm and inviting to friends and family.
Below are so great examples of inviting Entrance Halls that are treated like they are an extension of the living space. Some of which the home owner has slashed out on, and some are done on a budget but still look and feel welcoming. The important thing to remember is that even the images that look expensive... there are always inexpensive alternatives you can achieve that will create a look for a fraction of the price.

I totally agree, hallways are so important being the first impression of our homes, yet so often left as dumping grounds for shoes and coats. They can be tricky to furnish in regards to size and shape, but it doesn't take much to make it a useable and welcoming space. A fabulous slim line console with drawer for the smaller hallway is ideal, you can store post/keys in the drawer, place a stunning vase of flowers on top, some baskets underneath to store shoes, hang a large mirror above and voila - a stunning feature. In larger hallways, a fabulous bench/chair and gorgeous chandelier can look stunning.
