Fall is such a wonderful time of year- mostly because you can use natural materials to decorate! Today I’m sharing a few pictures of my entryway for your decorating inspiration.
This is our entry bench, though it’s not really at the entry… it’s pretty much smack dab in the middle of our lower level across from the family room. I have a more “formal” entry table by the front door across from the living room, but when I saw this bench I fell in love with it and had to have it! We do use it a lot (usually it’s covered with hats, books, purses and backpacks) and it is great fun to decorate for the holidays!
I hope you enjoy these fall entryway decorating ideas using natural materials!
Here is our front door! Those are vintage grape boxes I’m using as stands.
A rusty old scoop makes a great cornucopia!
LOVE the colors on these gourds and corn!!! Can’t beat fall colors!
This is the first natural wreath I’ve ever made, so I’m quite proud of it! 🙂 I used a straw wreath and floral pins along with leaves from a grapevine and a liquid amber tree, mums, and red berries. I alternated the materials and just worked my way around pinning them to a straw wreath, then used some natural twine to hang it. After gathering the materials, it took me maybe 10 minutes to put together. I made it about a week ago, and even though the materials have dried out quite a bit, it still looks great! I can’t wait to make more!
I hope this gets your creative juices flowing! Until next time!

Where did you get the bench we love it!
Hi Amanda!
I bought it back in 2011 on Amazon, but unfortunately they don’t carry it anymore and I don’t know if anyone else does. 🙁 The closest thing to it I could find on Amazon is this: Home Styles 5530-49 Naples Hall Tree, White Finish
Everything is so warm and inviting. Perfect for Fall. Thanks for sharing your foyer at the Best of DIY link party!
You’re welcome- thanks for having me! 🙂
Love your decorating and I love that bench in your hallway. Is that just white or is it very very light green?
Hi Dawn! I’m glad you like it! 🙂 The bench is actually an off-white. These pics where taken on a cloudy day and before I started using Photoshop, so I had a tough time editing them to get the shadows out. The bottom of the bench is the true color.
