Inspiration: Entryways

A little interior inspiration this morning for the entryway and in particular, ones that don't have a built in closet.  The Scandinavians seem to have this predicament figured out (with a few hooks and a bench); so many of these images you'll note are from that way.  Many of you may have seen some of these around the blogs or on Pinterest (it's so saturated out there these days - isn't it?) but I thought it would be fun to show you the one's I've been collecting. Love the top one with the collection of vintage photo's and their frames above the door.  The cream color of the matting with the metal frames goes so well with the white paint.  You can see more of my entryway pins on Pinterest here. What's your favourite?

How inspiring! I am now full of ideas for my empty and bare entryway. I especially love the last one. Too bad my junk doesn't look nearly as lovely as theirs.

Inspiring indeed! I just randomly put my coat rack by the door now I think I should probably have lots of fun with it. Thanks for sharing!

how lovely and simple. i cannot wait to jazz up an entryway one day with the same sense of brightness, sparseness and touch of vintage and wood!

So pretty. I love the one with the green tree wallpaper. I would delight to put my coat on that wall.
