How To Style a Console Table

I recently changed a few things up in our front entrance. Since we moved into our house, we had a beautiful black bench and a set of botanical prints decorating this space. It was a quick fix, did the job, but I was never in love with it.

Our front entrance BEFORE

After last deer season, let’s just say my husband asked to add something else to the walls. And all hunting wives collectively sigh. To accommodate this new member of the family, I told him the only solution would be to redecorate this spot in the house. Is this joke on him? The jury’s still out.

I sent the bench back to our furniture store, where a happy shopper quickly snagged it. I brought in a new console table and rearranged the botanical prints to start with. Next, I snagged a lamp from our bedroom (I’ve since replaced both of those) and continued layering in accessories to polish up this little spot.
