Summer Entry Way

Happy Monday! Our weather is finally beautiful and our home is slowly transitioning into summer mode! I thought this was the perfect time to start sharing bits and pieces of our summer home tour with you. Today, I’m revealing our Summer Entry Way along with 9 other bloggers.  If you are visiting from Sincerely, Marie Designs , welcome! I just love what Amanda did with her entry way.

Summer Porch With Multiple Planters

In April, I shared our spring porch which will stay with us through summer. I love watching the plants continue to blossoms and fill out over the porch.  You can head over to that post to read more about how I fill our planters.

Now let’s walk inside…

Summery Entry Way

I really enjoy the decor we picked for our entry way because it’s so versatile. By keeping a neutral table and rustic mirrors, I can easily transition it into different seasons by simply changing out a few of the accessories.

Summer Vignette with Driftwood

This summer, I went with a subtle modern boho chic look by adding a few geometric vases and metal lanterns filled with big tropical greens and a little driftwood garland (that I added a little white to).

Modern Boho Entry Way

Modern Boho Vignette

The large white vase I picked up at HomeGoods a few years ago, and the lanterns are from this season at Michaels.

Metal Lanterns

These lanterns are so versatile, you can use them as lanterns like I did here or vases like I did for our Easter tablescape.

Boho Farmhouse Entry Way

I’m looking forward to sharing more of our home with you over the next fews weeks. Before you go, make sure to hop on over to Christina’s Adventures below. I always love what she does with her home tours!

My goal was to create a cozy yet elegant space where we can kickback and relax and also entertain. I wanted to keep the neutral tones and use the dark beams as a starting point for the design. Adding comfortable furniture but also a statement chandelier and vintage inspired accents. 

Phase 2: building a custom, built-in media center coming later this year!

It’s often the final finishing touches that truly transform the vibe of a room. I picked up some final styling pieces from @wayfair , I am obsessed with both side tables. They are both statement pieces. And the personal photos, candle, heart trays and leather pillows are why bring the warmth and personal touches into this space.

This is the 5-Seat Modular Corner Sectional from @7thavenueco in the color Oatmeal Beige. We ordered it in the extra-deep seat option for ultimate coziness. The material is water-repellent, stain-resistant and you can also throw all covers in the wash!

We cannot say enough great things about this sofa, we all love it and just sink into it. It definitely passes the family test. Plus, it truly is gorgeous. It looks very chic.
