The Best Pieces to Decorate Your Entryway

There are many different approaches to decorating your entryway. We’ve put together a curated list of the best pieces to add to your entryway to create a seamless, chic look. Whether you want to add one piece of furniture and décor or multiple entryway window treatments, these tips can make a big impact in your space.

Console Tables

A console table is an entryway must. This is the best way to display items you want front and center, such as statement lamps and picture frames with family photos. Once you’ve established a good starting point, add smaller pieces, such as a bowl for keys, a stack of books for height, or a unique vase as a fun conversation starter for when guests arrive.

Statement Piece

You want a focal point in your entryway, no matter what design style you have. For many people, this is a large piece of statement artwork above a console table or a gallery wall of smaller art pieces and framed photos. Our favorite entryway statement piece, though, is a large mirror with a funky shape or frame. We love mirrors in entryways because they are a genius way to add light to your room while helping to make your entryway or foyer appear larger.

Runner Rugs

Adding a runner rug is a simple yet elegant way to introduce color and patterns to your entryway. Go bold with a distinctive pattern and color combo, or keep it sleek and chic with a more muted tone if you want to let your artwork or gallery wall shine. If your wall decor is already somewhat muted, we’d recommend choosing a brighter color scheme for the runner for a pop of color.

Entryway Window Treatments

Maximize Natural Light and Privacy

Adding window treatments to your entryway is essential to create the best natural light possible while maintaining your privacy. Our favorite way to accomplish this combination is by utilizing Top-Down/Bottom-Up window treatments. Thankfully, you can get Top-Down/Bottom-Up window treatment on tons of different options, including Duette® Cellular Shades, Vignette® Roman Shades, and Provenance® Woven Wood Shades.

Sidelight Window Treatments

Your entryway window treatments will depend entirely on the type of entryway windows. If you’re just working with sidelights, you could go with some options that are ideal for privacy and high-traffic areas, like EverWood® Faux Wood Blinds, which resist fading, yellowing, bowing, and warping. Another great option for a sleek entryway is our Modern Precious Metals® Mini Blinds in a metallic finish like brushed nickel or bronze, which will look great in your entryway for years to come.

How to Cover a Curved Window

If you’re wondering how to cover a curved window in your entryway, rest assured—we have plenty of options for that scenario, too. Many of the aforementioned options, including our faux wood blinds, Roman shades, cellular shades, and more, are curved-window-compatible. Our experienced team can help you decide which of these window treatments near Roseburg, OR, are right for your curved or arched window.
