Make a Grand Entrance with a Console Table

One year after moving into my house, I have finally completed decorating (last items on the list were a console table and accessories) and it feels so good to have a place I can call home. After a long day of running around town, I have created a space I love which allows my brain to unwind, my body to relax and I can enjoy countless hours in my living room doing whatever my heart desires. I live in a small condo that has one bed/one bath so I didn’t need to go overboard with the décor but I wanted my house to feel cozy yet super stylish. My ultimate dream is for my house to look like it belongs on the pages of Elle Décor magazine but for now I chose to decorate in a “transitional” style. I had to ask my interior design sister what that meant and according to a professional, I have more traditional pieces of furniture mixed with modern accessories. The last items on the check list to complete my home were accessories to compliment my West Elm console table in the entryway…because a grand entrance needs to make a statement. For design inspiration on modern entryways, I looked no further than the endless pics on Houzz and Pinterest. I’ve rounded up my favorite inspiration pictures and took elements from each to create a fun, eclectic blend of accessories in my entryway.

Obsessing over these minimal, light tables with clean simple lines. They are the perfect console tables for narrow spaces and easy to accessorize with a mirror or frames.

Get creative with your console tables and choose a style with a unique design element like hairpin legs or multiple open shelves. Add vases of different heights to pull the look together.

Make a grand entrance and be dramatic with funky wall paper or a brightly colored lacquer console table. Don’t be afraid to have fun when decorating because it adds your personality to your home.

Create a warm, welcoming space with this rustic yet refined wood console table. The dark color pops against the white brick and it gives off a natural vibe with the rich grain.
