Daily Dose of Design–Inviting Foyers

The first impression of your home is often set by the foyer. 

Whether you have a defined foyer space or have to create one, your foyer should showcase your design style and decorative personality, as well as providing a functional space within your home.

  Here are a few foyer spaces that are both Functional and Fashionable. 

This small foyer niche looks larger than life with the addition of an oversized mirror and wall paper that visually extends the boundaries of the space. 

The lower shelf unit, turned bench, provides stylish storage and gives the space personality.

Upholstered ottomans tucked under this foyer table add an element of softness to the space.

A vertically hung mirror, flanked by artwork groupings carry the eye up and make the space appear larger than it really is. 

The tabletop accessories give you a sneak peek of the decorative style within the home.

If you need a place to drop the keys and mail, or a place to sit a spell, this foyer has it all. 

 I love how the large mirror and console are offset with the low slipper chairs and single wall sconce. 

A true style statement that makes you feel welcome and at home.

Thing long hallway was turned into a stylish foyer with the addition of a long wall shelf and art grouping. 

The shelf provides the function while the wall decor conveys the sense of style.

When decorating your foyer, give it a reason for being and make it pretty while you are at it!
