How to Create a Functional Entryway in Any Size Space
Clothing, Coat, Accessories

An entryway does not need to be large to be functional. It simply needs to be intentional and clear in purpose. The entryway is the first and last space you pass through each day. This is where you take one final glance in the mirror before stepping into the world. It is also where everyone kicks off their shoes, drops their bags, and leaves behind things like keys, sunglasses and other essentials down and walks away. The space should work for you and not against you. 

Start by clearing the surfaces and beginning fresh. Whether you have a console table, a narrow shelf, or a small ledge, keep only what serves a purpose. Add a catchall tray or bowl to contain keys, sunglasses, and everyday essentials. Without a designated place for these items, surfaces quickly become cluttered.

Color Drenching: The bold hue movement that is sticking around in 2026

What is color drenching?Color drenching is an interior design trend where a single color is used on every surface in a room. This includes walls, trim, doors, and even the ceiling, creating a cohesive and immersive atmosphere. The technique can make a small room feel larger or a spacious room feel cozier, and it often extends to furniture, radiators, and cabinetry for a bold, unified effect.

While the term color drenching is relatively new, the concept has deep roots in design history. The look can be traced to historic European interiors where monochromatic schemes added depth and luxury. Even in the Victorian era, richly saturated jewel tones were often used in grand spaces such as libraries and parlors. It reappeared during the 1960's and 1970's as well. Designers have long understood that a single, enveloping hue can create a striking sense of mood and continuity.

Snake plant

So which plants can handle winter? For homes that tend to be cooler, hardy plants like Snake Plants (Sansevieria), Cast Iron Plants, and ZZ Plants (Zamioculcas zamiifolia) are ideal. The good news is that all three can handle temperature drops and limited sunlight. The Cast Iron Plant, for example, can thrive in conditions as low as 50 degrees Fahrenheit.

While not quite as hardy, other low-maintenance favorites include Pothos (Epipremnum), Spider Plants, Ferns, and Heartleaf Philodendrons. These do well in shadier, low-light spots and require minimal care.
