EntryThe entry is where the first impression of the interior is created. Here you have the opportunity to make a big statement in a small area: Repaint the entry using light, neutral colors; move a prized antique or attractive furnishing to the entry, where it will have maximum impact; apply a fresh coat of polyurethane to a wood floor; tile or linoleum flooring should shine; replace plastic switch plate covers with brass or porcelain; a new hall light fixture can make a great impression; make sure the room is well lit. |
