How to Create a Stylish and Organized Entryway
Your beach bag was all you needed for months. Now, with back-to-school events and the holidays approaching, it’s time to properly equip your entryway for the fall and winter. We can help you prepare for extracurricular activities, changes in the weather, and holiday events with Amish-made furniture that will keep your entryway or mudroom stylish, organized, and working for you.
With the foyer being the introduction to your home, you want this space to achieve three things:
- Show off your personal style.
- Keep items organized.
- Provide a comfortable place to sit if the space allows.
Start with a Storage Bench
Foyer benches are usually built to be multitaskers. Look for one that showcases your style while offering a comfy place to sit and plenty of storage space that will help keep your entryway tidy.
The Amish Marlow Bench has a place to sit and change your shoes. Tuck them away in the spacious compartment under the bench.
Comfy and inviting, the French country style Amish Ripley Storage Bench comes with baskets beneath the seat to stow your purse. The drawers that line the top are perfect for wallets, keys, and the dog’s leash.
Perfect for an active family, the transitional style Bray Entryway Hall Tree Bench offers a place to sit, hooks, baskets, a mirror, and cubbies for maximum organization.
Making great use of vertical space, the 68″ Storage Tree Bench is another transitional style example with an abundance of storage and features to help you stay organized.
Be Sure to Have Hooks
If you don’t have room for a bench seat, consider adding a hall tree or coat rack. With hooks that will help keep bags and outerwear off the floor, sofa, or kitchen table, they are great for storage and organization.
The Amish Mission Hall Tree has a revolving top that makes it easy to grab bags and jackets when on the go.
The Solid Wood Coat Rack is a great tool for everyday and features four upper hooks and four lower hooks to hang essentials.
The Amish Edgehill Storage Shelf comes with hooks and three cubby-style compartments for hats and gloves.
Stay organized and on schedule with the mission style Amish Morgan Clock Cabinet. This timekeeper features hidden storage behind the clock movement and drawers at the base.
Consider a Hall Table/Chair Combo
If there aren’t school-aged children in the picture or you don’t need extra storage, a hall table and chair might be more your speed. Add a lamp, mirror, or artwork to enhance the space. Reflect the current season with fresh flowers or holiday themed décor.
The Amish Sundance Hall Table paired with the Chelsea Amish Dining Room Chair make a lovely transitional style pairing. Add family photos to the table and store books and magazines on the lower shelf.
