My favorite decor pieces for a foyer / entryway

I love decorating foyers and entryways for my clients. It is the first thing that people see when entering a home. Sometimes the space needs to serve a functional purpose for storing coats and shoes, and other times the foyer just has an empty wall for something decorative.

For this client, the goal was a place for people to take off shoes on a comfortable and sturdy bench. And the hooks allow for the storage of some smaller items since there is a coat closet in the space as well.

When adding a cabinet or console table, a mirror is the perfect thing to place above it. Having a spot to check your appearance before leaving the house is so practical.

Here are some of my favorite pieces that I love to use in a foyer / entryway.

NYC apartment bedroom transformation Upper West Side

I am excited to share my first NYC project - an Upper West Side bedroom transformation! My client wanted to refresh her space and they needed to add storage to the room. We also added a beautiful grasscloth wallpaper behind the bed which really made a lovely accent wall.

I love the combination textures between the wood in the dresser to the rug and bed. The color palette is very serene.

Here is the before photo from when I first met my client several months ago.

Instead of a dresser on the wall opposite the bed like you see in the before photo, we did a wall of built-ins.

On the other side of the bed, we have this cabinet piece for even more storage.

Here is a before photo of the same wall.

We fit so many pretty details into this space and I am so happy with how it all came together!

Decorating a Console Table - Shop the Look

I am so excited to share this recently completed family room update. This space has a lot of personality and is so light and bright. I love that my clients are not afraid of color and they fell in love with this artwork that is perfect for over the console table. We kept the rest of the decor simple so as not to take away from the beautiful piece of art.

Do you want to snag any of the items that we used in this transformation? I have a round-up of the pieces and similar items.

On the other side of this room, we also decorated the built-ins (and selected a new rug and ottoman!)

Check out where we started with this space - I especially love the new denim ottoman. I saw it in the store and knew that it would be perfect with the new rug!

Ridgewood Breakfast Room Transformation - NJ decorator

This space had SO much potential when I first saw it last year and I am thrilled with how it has been transformed. This is the breakfast room off of my clients’ eat-in-kitchen which is a casual hang-out space for the family.

Here is where we started with this space. As you can see, we kept the gorgeous brick tile floors and existing windows and trim. So the transformation just involved paint, furniture and decor.

I love these chairs and the wood detail on the front of them.

And they pair so beautifully with the new sofa.

For the coffee table, I wanted to be sure to keep it simple so that the brick tile floor was still visible. This classic glass table fit the bill perfectly.
