Home entry is the first thing that the guest sees when they enter the house. So it is very important to make this smallest space the most welcoming for the guest.
Check out few ideas on how to create the entry way from dramatic to cozy looking one:

3. Add a seating arrangement with storage for shoes.
4. Attach a key holder art décor to drop the keys.
5. A bold beautiful wall paper can be done on the wall that will make it eye-catching décor.

7. Do the framing of the door to make it stand out and welcoming. Attach the mirror and molds to decorate it.
