The French Art of the Entry Table

Today's Tip

Every French home has a small table near the entrance. It holds keys, a small tray, perhaps a candle. It is the transition between the outside world and the private space. Function first, beauty second.

Try This

Clear a small surface near your front door. Place a simple tray or bowl for keys and a single object of beauty: a small plant, a candle, a framed photo. Nothing else. Resist the urge to pile.
