Make a Good First Impression: Hallway Style Tips
 

Show your loved ones how much you love them by making your hallway your best room decor. Here are few tips to make the best first impression of all for everyone who enters your home:

1- Door
The traditional “welcome home” sign can never go old. However, you can customize it by adding you and your spouse name or simply using your family name after the welcome home sentence.  You can also write your own names on the door itself. And do not forget the welcome carpet which comes with different funny yet wise quotes.

2-Lights

A chic and attractive way to light your hallway is a floor lamp. Its size, its color, its light will give your space a sense of joy and will serve as a decorating tool not only for lighting purposes. Another way is to use painted glass bottle with small candles inside of them. They come in different shapes which the best of them are the mandalas designs and they add color and life to your entrance.

3- Arts and walls
Any piece of art brings magic to your home. How about hanging some of those amazing pieces in your hallway? Giving an aesthetic and astonishing visual look, a painting will be the focal point in your hallway especially if it is big enough. You can opt also for wall painting ideas by choosing daring colors like green, yellow or even black on which you can hang a mirror or some flower pictures.  Another great idea is the introduction of a dressing table which often comes with a mirror. This extra storage place can serve also as a key or jacket holder for your visitors, making them feel comfortable whenever visiting you.

4- Chair
Yes, you read it right! Add a chair. It is true that your guests aren’t going to sit in the hallway, but this chair has multi-purposes. It can serve as a waiting area where a guest can sit waiting for the rest of your friends to join. It can also serve as a private place for guests to answer their urgent calls. Design it in a way that matches the size and style of your hallway. Do not forget to include a pillow for a more comfortable experience.

5- Scents

The best first impression that can be felt from the very first moments of your guest entrance is a refreshing scent. Not only does it reflect your personal hygiene habits, it also gives a pleasant feeling to your visitors, making them feel at ease. You don’t have to spend a lot of money on buying air fresheners. A one dollar shop may have all you need. Just make the wise choice by picking the best available odors or some perfumed candles.

6-Plants and flowers
The truth is that every room, even the hallway, needs a plant inside it. The air quality will totally change once you decide to bring nature inside your entryway. An alternative tool for art decors which may be expensive is also some fresh or even fake flowers, which will blow the mind of your visitors with their charming colors and attractive odors.
