Winterizing Your Entryway: The Sassy Mom’s Simple Guide to a Chic & Functional First Impression
When the cold weather rolls in, your entryway becomes your first line of defense against the elements. But why settle for just functional when you can make it both chic and cozy?
Warm Welcome: Start by swapping out that summer welcome mat for something winter-themed. Think “Let It Snow” or “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” for a cute, cozy greeting. Layer it with a plush, washable rug to protect against snow and dirt. Add a stylish umbrella stand so everyone can drop off their wet gear before stepping into your warm abode.
Seasonal Storage: Maximize your entryway’s storage potential by installing a chic coat rack or a set of hooks for jackets, scarves, and hats. Try decorative baskets to hold gloves and mittens, and use a small bench with hidden storage to stash boots and shoes out of sight.
Pro Tips:
Use a stylish tray for keys and sunglasses, or even add a little decorative bowl for your essentials.
Add a large mirror to your entryway for a practical and fashionable touch—perfect for a last-minute check before heading out.
A string of fairy lights or a decorative winter wreath will add that extra sparkle when guests arrive.
