Who doesn’t love walking into their home and being greeted with a stunning entryway table? Today, I’m sharing forty different entry table decor ideas that are super trendy and easy to decorate with. Let’s get into it!
Let’s take a quick look at an example of basic entry table styling. Start by complementing the space above your entry table with a visual focal point like a mirror or artwork.
When decorating your table surface, place your tallest decorations on the sides, framing your focal point.
Fill the space in between with smaller and shorter decorations. Be sure to consider functional aspects like lighting and storage, and save this handy cheat sheet for later!

Entry Table Decor Ideas
1: statement mirror
One of the easiest ways to level up your entry table decor is by adding a large mirror as your focal point. From there, you can fill in the remaining gaps and empty spaces with smaller decor pieces. Keep reading for some ideas on how to do this!
2: baskets
For a decor idea that’s both beautiful and functional, you’ll definitely want to try adding some baskets to your entry table setup.
Not only do they add a gorgeous, homey touch to your entryway, but you can store things in them and save some space at the same time.
3: blankets
Speaking of homey decor! One super trendy idea when it comes to entryway styling is to drape a blanket over the rim of your baskets for the ultimate touch of coziness.
4: trays
I have been absolutely obsessed with tray decor recently, and I know I’m not the only one. Grab a cute tray (I love round ones, but rectangular ones will work great too), and add a couple decorative items on it.
Tip: use pieces with varying heights to create visual interest and get a dynamic yet balanced look.

5: tiered trays
Love the idea of using trays for your entry table but feel like you need something a little taller? Tiered trays might be the answer you’ve been looking for!
6: decorative vases
Next when it comes to entry table decor ideas is to use decorative vases. This one is so underrated! I feel like when we think of vases as decor, they always have flowers or greenery in them.
You can totally do that, but never underestimate the beauty of a statement vase without anything in it.
7: tapered candles
Tapered candles are perfect for adding a touch of sophistication to your entry table. Simply find some tapered candle holders to place them in and you’re set.
Tip: find a set of candle holders that comes in an odd number and with different height variations.
8: poufs
Poufs not only have an adorable name, but they also make beautiful decor pieces. The easiest way to decorate your entryway table with poufs is to use a set of two or three and place them underneath your table.
Make sure your poufs look visually balanced under your table and that they aren’t too big or too small.
9: stack of books
Anyone else think little decorative book stacks are just the cutest thing? Turns out, they also look gorgeous on a console table!
You’ll also want to place some decorations on top of your stack of books, like a candle or a little clock (more on these later).
10: lanterns
This next idea is especially perfect for farmhouse and coastal interiors, but you can make it work with a ton of different styles. Much like tiered candles, you’ll want to use a set with varying heights.
The cool thing about decorative lanterns is that you can have smaller ones go on top of your entry table, or use big ones that you can put right next to it on the floor!

11: bead garland
Next is a gorgeous idea for farmhouse interior lovers looking to add some rustic charm to their entryway.
Some ways you can style wood bead garlands are by draping them off of a stack of books, off a tiered tray, wrapping them around candles, or placing them in a decorative bowl.
12: florals & greenery
Of course, I have to mention florals! Personally, my favorites are cherry blossoms and tulips. Adding fresh flowers (or even artificial ones) is an instant way to liven up your entry table decor.
13: decorative bowls & fillers
Who doesn’t love a decorative bowl with some cute fillers inside? If you’re unsure where to start, try filling a gorgeous wood bowl with moss balls or wicker balls. This is perfect if you’re going for a natural yet sophisticated personal style.
14: pillows
There are few better ways to cozy up your entryway than by adding pillows. You can place them inside woven baskets with or without blankets, or on their own underneath your entryway table.
Be sure to angle your pillows and place the smaller ones in front for a professionally styled look.

15: picture frames
Have no idea how to decorate your entryway table? You can never go wrong with framed art prints or photos of your friends and family.
Seeing photos of your loved ones is one of the best ways to be greeted every time you enter your home and adds a personal touch to your space.
16: lamps
Besides light being a convenient thing to have nearby when you enter your house, a gorgeous lamp is a surefire way to level up anyone’s entryway table decor.
Try using one that’s a decent size, nothing too small, and place it on one side of your table.
17: small clocks
Little clocks are adorable and add such a homey feel to a space! You can pair a small clock with your photo frames, place it on top of a stack of books, or on a decorative tray.
18: decorative knots
These decorative chain and knot sculptures are sure to add a beautiful modern touch to your space. Like with clocks, these will work any place you’ve got a small space to fill.

19: driftwood
This entryway table styling idea is absolutely perfect for a coastal interior! Use smaller pieces of driftwood to decorate the top of your table. Large ones can act as a gorgeous statement piece underneath your entry table.
20: mirror garland
I absolutely love this idea because it’s the perfect way to add some seasonality to your entryway. For fall, try some dried florals or pampas grass.
For the holidays, try using pine or cedar garland. Or, to get an asymmetrical and super trendy look, line only part of your mirror with your garland on an angle.
21: incense sticks
These are the perfect little touches of sophistication for your table and another great thing to place on top of book stacks!
22: decorative branches
Think a vase of flowers is too much but still want to incorporate a vase into your entryway? Try adding some decorative branches instead. This is a must try if you’re going for a minimalist and naturally styled entryway.
23: welcome signs
A darling little entry table decor idea is to add some welcome signs on top of your table. These also pair really nicely with any framed photos or framed art prints you have.
24: pumpkins
For fall, try adding some adorable pumpkins to your entry table. You can use smaller ones to decorate the top of your table, or large ones to place underneath.
The color scheme options are endless, too! You can go with orange pumpkins for a more traditional look, or white and neutral ones for a more subtle touch of autumn.

26: magazine or book basket
What a cozy idea for your entryway table! For this one, grab a wired storage basket and stack some magazines and/or books inside, either horizontally or vertically.
The reason I love using a wired basket for this idea is so you can see the contents inside.
It’s truly the little details that make a difference and help to make a stunning first impression for anyone that visits your home.

Trinket trays make the cutest little accessory for your entry table! Plus, they’re a useful place to store keys and other necessities.
30: floor lamp
Ideas #30-33 work great for going right next to your entry table rather than on top of it or underneath it. The first of these ideas is a floor lamp.
This is great if you have other decor ideas you want to use for your entry table, but still want to include a lamp in your space.
31: tall greenery
Similarly, a tall plant right next to your table is a beautiful way to add some height and dimension to your entryway.
32: seating
If you have some extra space next to your table that you’re not sure how to fill, try adding a little seating area. It can be a comfy armchair, or even just a wood stool or bench.
Spruce up the space with a blanket or some pillows for a cozy feel.
33: photo gallery wall
Have a lot of blank wall space? Want to make a statement with it? A large photo gallery wall like this one is a beautiful way to fill your wall in a stylish and sentimental manner.

Rattan details like what you see on the table ‘doors’ bring an organic and earthy feel to your space. Incorporating this texture is a great way to make an entryway feel more lively and less sterile.
36: moss balls
For another stunning earthy decor idea, try adding large moss or plant balls in a decorative tray on your entryway table.
37: panel mirror
Spice up the trend of hanging a mirror above your entryway table with a paneled mirror like this one! If you’re looking to hang a mirror for purely decorative purposes and not functional ones, you can’t go wrong here.
38: wall candle holders
If you want to decorate with candles but don’t have enough room on your table, try using wall candle holders!
These are such an elegant way to elevate a space. When your candles are lit, you’ll be able to enjoy a warm, ethereal glow in your entryway.
39: wall sconces
Like with the wall candle holders, wall sconces elevate a space while providing additional convenient lighting. Your entryway will look incredible under the warm, gentle glow of these lights.
