Your front door is the first impression of your home. Your front door design may not always be alterable, but how you present what you have is up to you. 

Entryway ideas

Simple entryway ideas work best for any set up, whether it’s a small apartment or a large mansion. Entryway decor needs to be uncluttered and functional. 

Small entryway ideas include artwork on the door or walls, vintage knockers or bells, and hanging planters. The idea is to use the vertical space instead of the floor space.

For larger front door entryway ideas can be varied. From proper sit outs to a minimal look. Many use it to keep shoes, cycles, and plants. While others prefer to have their shoe cabinets indoors.

Check out some Paintings, botanical art, and mandalas to inspire your decor.

Entryway furniture ideas

There are some furniture pieces that could be placed outside your door, given the space. 

Entryway bench for visitors you don’t want to invite inside, or to just sit while putting on your shoe.

Entryway shoe storage needs to be covered (maybe with a lock) 

Entryway cabinet to hold things like umbrellas, outdoor toys, etc

Cycle stand either wall-mounted or on the side

Whatever your preference, make sure that nothing is in your way when you get in or out of your door. If you live in an apartment, then it is imperative that you don’t obstruct the corridor. Not only is it inconvenient for your neighbours but it can cause a serious obstruction during emergencies.
