The entrance to your home is the first thing you, your guests, family and friends see when visiting your home. Over the past few months, our front doors have been used more than ever, with increased online deliveries and the joy of welcoming friends and family back to our homes.

A backdrop to many a photo, from stepping over the threshold as a newly married couple to bringing a new baby home and even their first day at school, it’s fair to say memories are made at the entrance to our homes.

However, the front of the home is also the perfect place for homeowners to showcase their creative side and personal style. With wreaths, garlands, plant pots and lighting, there are a range of ways to add a personal, decorative touch to the front doorstep.

And decorating the entrance to your home isn’t just for Christmas or for special photo backdrops, the trend of ‘door-scaping’ is something which can be achieved any time of the year.

More than just a simple door wreath, door-scaping is an art which can transform the entrance space to your home. From seasonal spring floral displays to ‘spooktacular’ Halloween set ups, there are a range of design options to help bring some attention to this important part of your home throughout the year.

However, we don’t all want to create such extravagant décor each season, so the team at Eurocell Home, who offer a wide range of UPVC and Composite doors, provide their top tips on how you can easily create a stunning entrance to your home, which will look special all year round.

Get creative with greenery

Wreaths don’t have to just be used at Christmas, they can bring colour and add interest to your front door all year round. Using faux greenery will mean the wreath will last longer and survive whatever the Great British weather throws at it.

With an all-green wreath, you can then add colour to it depending on the time of the year, or introduce plants such as lavender, which will not only add a subtle hint of colour to your wreath but also add a stunning scent when entering the home.

Another way to style up your front door with greenery is with the use of evergreen plants. Options such as Ivy, laurel, Buxus and Bay Trees outside the front of your home can help to bring colour all year round, whatever the season, whilst also being easy to maintain and manage.

For something a little more extravagant, a garland draped over or around your entrance space can create a stunning walkway for visitors or can make you smile when you arrive home. A real focal point, a garland can frame your door from spring through ‘til Christmas, simply by switching and changing the flowers and decorations it’s teamed with to create a seasonal door display.

Style you door

When it comes to creating a stunning entrance area, some simple changes to your door can make a huge different.

If you’re looking for a more permanent change, an update of door colour is the perfect way to create an unforgettable entrance to your home. Whether you choose to stand out with colours like yellow, red or teal or decide to go for something more neutral or classic such as grey or black, there are so many ways to show your personality with your door colour.

With Eurocell Home, there’s a huge selection of colours to choose from, helping you to give your home the entranceway it deserves, whilst also creating the ultimate kerb appeal.

Door furniture can also add some serious style to you entrance, from bold brass bumblebee door knockers, sleek black letterboxes or gorgeous gold door handles, there’s something out there to suit any style of home or door.

It’s also important to select door furniture colours and styles which compliment both your home and your door. Whether it’s chrome furniture on a black door, or gold accessories on a yellow door, it’s worth looking at the range of styles and options to make sure it works for your home.

Light it up

Adding lighting at the front of your home is not only beneficial for security purposes, but it can also create a stunning glow at your door.

Lighting should lead you and your guests to the doorway, highlighting the stunning entrance to your home and adding some stylistic features. Make sure to consider the age and style of your home when choosing lighting and try to pick lights which complement the look and feel of your property.

If you have a long drive or pathway which leads to you home, consider lighting to highlight this too. Not only does lighting help to guide the way to your property, but it will also create a welcoming atmosphere before a guest enters your home.

Whether you want to create a spooky, autumnal display, introduce some greenery or simply add some stunning lighting to your home, there are many ways of styling the front entrance to your home.
