Comments (2)I'm certainly no designer but if you already have a wall sconce either side of the mirror, then I would remove the lamp on the table and replace it with some other item like a nice piece of personal art, or vase and I do think a larger plant would look better on the ground as suggested by emwoodhouse. Would love to see other photo's of this entry to see if even a sitting area is a possibility. I think a rug could look nice too....See MoreHall entrance and balustrade help
Comments (5)Hi Leah. As you like timber what about using a decorative timber screen to fit that space? Enough decoration to give privacy, but open enough so light can come through. Kind of like a picture that draws your eye rather than an ugly square of glass. I'm sure houzz has an article showing these decorative screens in various styles.

Or is it a Staging ground for getting out the door? Then perhaps the mirror, some sort of rack for bags & hats etc, a bench for sitting and putting on shoes, cork board for reminders etc (it is possible to have these all behind a thin closet so closed doors hide any clutter). Whatever you choose, I just find it helpful to keep the rooms purpose in mind....See MoreEntrance way help
Comments (11)Hi, not sure how the full length of your wall jutting out looks. But I think a mirror covering that entire part of the wall and then a fantastic piece of artwork on the wall above your small table would look great and open the space up a lot. Depending on the size of the artwork you could even do without the table. Imagine the gorgeous impact that would make....See Moredecodilema
