Whether you're a fan of minimalism or have the perfect theme mastered to express your personality, there's one place that many designers often overlook: the entryway.

Entrance tables are a great way to organize your necessities, declutter, and decorate with your favorite accent pieces to welcome you home. We caught up with celebrity interior designer Ariel Okin to learn the expert's tips on styling a chic entryway.

Plant parents, take note: Placing plants and leaf cuttings on your entry table adds an organic element to the space. To balance out the height of tall greenery, add smaller decorations like this rustic bowl and a short stack of books. "Living things always make a house feel like a home—they are a thoughtful gesture that shows someone lives here," says Okin.

If you live in an apartment or you're short on space, opt for a piece of furniture with built-in storage to display decorative items on the surface while utilizing drawers for other necessities. "This is the best way to minimize clutter in high-traffic areas," Okin says. Knick knacks from your travels or growing collections of your favorite items are great pieces to display on entry tables.

"Everyone likes to get one last glance in before heading out the door," Okin says. "Plus, mirrors reflect light and make a space feel bigger." Classic round mirrors add an element of class with a modern flair, while larger square mirrors are better for those last-minute style checks (and selfies, of course). Let the mirror shine and keep everything else simple: Matching table lamps, a curated stack of books, and other small decorative items make perfect complements for the star of the space.

If you're not quite sure what to do with your décor, try to create a balanced display in your entryway. "Symmetry isn't as important as overall balance," Okin says. "Pair a heavier coffee table book—or a decorative box, for example—with a lighter vase or a thinly-rimmed brass mirror. The dichotomy is what makes interiors really interesting." In this well-balanced space, the designer kept it simple with matching sconces, a lush vase of flowers, and an entry table with character.

A statement-making lamp livens up this trendy entryway. Complete with gilded home accessories, this space boasts just the right amount of glamour without sacrificing its sleek, clean look. "Materials like brass, lucite, leather, and marble always turn up the glam factor in a decidedly 'Hollywood Regency' space," Okin says.

When you're curating your space, choose a color scheme that you want to come home to every day.
Then edit your entryway accordingly: Small piles of books, paintings, or decorative accents are an easy way to incorporate your color palette of choice. "I'm a bit of a magpie when it comes to tchotchkes in my home, but for someone who wants an immaculate, well-edited look, choose a color palette that riffs on the rest of the house," Okin says.

As far as we're concerned, this moody entryway is the perfect place to experiment with darker colors. The curated black, gold and gray colors keep the table décor cohesive without competing with bolder wallpaper. "A gorgeous dark statement wallpaper can always do the trick to make the entryway more interesting," Okin suggests.

Make the most of a small space with an entryway table made of clear materials like glass. Decorate it with an elegant lamp, a few small plants, and a traditional mirror to keep the vignette simple. "Lucite and acrylic tables disappear wherever you put them," Okin says.
"If you're trying to create the illusion of more space, they're always a good bet in that scenario."

If you're not much for maximalism, take a cue from Scandinavian-inspired design. "Keep the palette clean and monochrome—and the accessories to a minimum—to achieve this sleek, palette-cleansing vibe." This entryway is a great inspiration to stick with the basics: A modern lamp, a stack of reading materials, and a bit of greenery are all that's needed to style this statement-making space.

While it's easy to get lost in the architecture of this stunning space, a large piece of wall art draws the eye further into the room—making this entryway as inviting as it is stylish. Bold, dark tones in the painting contrast neutral tones, while the entry table perfectly matches the home's front door and trim.

You may not think entry table decoration is important.
If so, it’s time for you to reconsider how your entryway can add a touch of class to your home. Do not take your space for granted as it’s easy to let your entryway become cluttered.
Shoes, keys, and small personal belongings add undue daily stress. When you designate a place for such items, you won’t waste time trying to find them. With a stylish entryway table, not only would it make your life easier, but would give your entryway an added touch of class.
If this sounds like something you could use, then you’ll like the following examples.
Where to Place an Entryway Table
View in gallery
Most entryway tables are designed to be placed flat against the wall since most entryways are not large enough for a console table to be placed in the center of the foyer. This is one of the reasons most console tables you’ll find are square or rectangular.
An entryway table should be placed directly across from your front entry if possible, as this will create a symmetrical look even if you choose an asymmetrical arrangement for the table itself.
However, entryway tables are also a good fit for stair alcoves if your stairs are connected to the front foyer.
How To Choose An Entryway Table
View in gallery
Choosing your console table from a furniture store? You’ll need to think some things through before you settle on the one you want. Take these steps before you decide which entryway table to choose for your layout:
- Measure the space. You’ll need to know exactly how much room you have in your entryway to choose a table that’s appropriate for the space. You don’t want to buy a table and get it home only to find that it’s too bulky to comfortably fit in your entryway.
- Check your style. If you have a coastal interior, you’ll want a very different-looking console than someone who has a farmhouse or modern interior. See what kind of furniture is paired with the consoles in the store to get an idea of how it would look with other pieces.
- Choose a function.
While a console table can be purely decorative, you can also find console tables that incorporate storage for books or even a small wine rack. Knowing how you want the table to work in your home can help you pick one that fits your needs.
At the end of the day, the entryway table you choose should be the one you love best as long as it fits in the space. Since there isn’t a lot of furniture in a foyer, you’re free to make your entryway table the focal point of the room.

You can also find online videos that can walk you through the process of building your entryway table step-by-step.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)FAQ
What Is The Purpose Of An Entryway Table?
In some cases, the purpose of styling your entryway table is purely decorative. These small tables function as a surface to place items such as picture frames, flower vases, and other miscellaneous decors that may not have a home elsewhere.
Why Is An Entryway Table Called A Console?
While many people associate the word “console” with “TV console,” the term console actually refers to an architectural feature. The brackets used to brace these small tables from underneath are known as consoles, from the Latin consolidare, or “to strengthen.”
These strengthening brackets make the tables sturdy enough to hold the weight of stored items without collapsing.
How Tall Are Entryway Tables?
The average height of an entryway table is roughly thirty inches tall. This would put the entryway table at approximately waist height for most people.
Where Do You Put On Entryway Tables?
An aquarium would be something different while also creating a stylish entryway.
Keep in mind that your console table may not be rated to support the heavy weight of a larger aquarium, so be sure to keep your tank at five gallons or under unless you’re getting a console table made of sturdier material, like wrought iron.
What Is The Standard Width Of An Entryway Table?
The width of an entryway table depends on the table’s style, but most entryway tables are designed to be long and narrow so they don’t obstruct the foyer. The width of entryway tables can range from two to five feet depending on the overall size of the piece.
Entry Table Decoration Conclusion
A small entryway table is the tiny pebble that’s thrown into calm water, creating a ripple effect that becomes a tsunami. And that’s a good thing. Decorating ideas should be original and fresh. Play your game and everything else will fall into place. Wall art would be a fun way to start if you chose something unexpected.
Your home’s entryway is the first impression of your home’s interior.
If you want to make a good impression, spend some time thinking about an entryway that would blow the minds of those who entered your home.
Redecorating this space is easy to achieve with little time or money. Have fun sprucing up the area, and it will put a smile on your face every time you return home from work in the evening.

Hallway Table - Designer Ideas for Your Interior
Whether placed in a large foyer, compactly placed in a corner, or double duty as a place for reading and dining, a well-decorated table can bring graceful note of the atmosphere of the house. Together with the readers, we will consider eight ways to decorate a room with the decoration of this classic piece of furniture.
nine0003
1. Vases in the interior
Find three to five vases of different heights that will work together - they don't have to be identical, but they often look best if made from the same material or the same color (for example, all glass, or all blue).
The tallest vase should be in the center of the group, group the others around it. Fill all vases with seasonal flowers or cut branches. In the photo, to create a tea atmosphere, several cups in the same style are arranged around a group of vases. nine0003
2. Sculpture and books
Pick up a sculpture or object that is about half the diameter of the table and place it in the center. Next, arrange stacks of magazine books of varying sizes (two or three are usually enough) around the item. For example, they are arranged around as a continuation of the spokes of the sculpture's wheel.
3. Vase, books and chairs
Another option is to use a large vase with fresh flowers or branches in the center of the table.
Arrange the stacks of books around it as in the previous example. Place a pair of stylish stools under the table - very convenient to sit down, for example, to browse books. In addition, such elegant furniture, as in the photo, is a stylish element of decor in itself. nine0003
If you prefer not to fuss about the constant presence of fresh flowers, you can choose a vase that looks great empty. Then you can put flowers in it or not according to your desire.
4.Asymmetrical arrangement
If you plan to place the round table in a corner, or access it primarily from one side, place the vase or sculpture on the back of the table and the beautiful books in front.
Creating an asymmetrical arrangement is also a great way to make the table center less formal. Try placing a large vase near the center and surrounding it with small stacks of books, as shown in the photo. nine0003
Object rule: two up, one missing. If you want to add stylish decor elements, place them on top of two stacks of books, but leave one empty.
Such a composition will still remain balanced and will not be rough, despite the variety of subjects.
5. One massive planter
Choose a planter that will take up about three-fourths of your table surface (the size must be measured before buying) and plant something interesting and chic in it, such as bonsai, orchids or plant arrangements. nine0003
However, before implementing this idea, you need to approach it realistically, having calculated how much light your entrance hall receives, how much time you can spend on caring for the composition. According to these parameters, choose plants to decorate your space.
6. Tablecloth to the floor, sculpture and books
A floor-length tablecloth looks elegant, but even more useful is that it can hide things under the table. In the foyer, under such a table, you can put several large container baskets with different things, for example, winter mittens and scarves folded in the summer.
nine0003
Place a sculpture or vase in the center and surround it with interesting books. The table shown in the photo is in the dining room, but without the chairs, it would also look great in the foyer.
It should be noted that the set table is a natural choice for a formal dining room, which is more often used as a library or office than for dinner. Let books and interesting objects lie here most of the time, when necessary, you will remove them.
7. Tablecloth to the floor, lamp and books nine0003
The smaller table with a long tablecloth, a lamp and a pile of books in the living room also looks very good. Remember, floor-length fabric is the perfect hidden place to store some things, making this table a smart choice for small spaces.
8. Small but graceful trio
A small foyer can still look beautiful. The key is to not clutter it up with a lot of small items.
Styling Tip: Choose two large pieces to fill most of the space (like a sculpture of a horse and a potted plant, as shown here).
