My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Entryway Dilemma

3 years ago

Not sure what to put in my entryway- not sure if a small console table and mirror will look odd on the smaller wall, or if something should be put on the slanted wall instead?

    It depends a bit on the entirety of your entry. For example, if you have no other place for a console table and would like one (for mail, or mittens, or whatever), then you could put one in this zone, maybe an oval (with a small lamp and a print on the flat wall).

    However, a lot of people use a spot like this for an armchair and lamp. (or table)

    You can also *just* have a table with some kind of interesting decor, which doesn't need to involve the walls...

    Hope this helps! :)
