Let’s Put Together a Modern Entryway

Let’s play a little game. I want to know which hook or rack, mirror, and console table you like together, and then I’ll show you what I’d choose!

  1. * Eames Hang-it-All
  2. * Rolly Console Table
  3. Splash Coat Rack
  4. Cubix Mirror
  5. Round Mango Wood Mirror
  6. Stockholm Sofa Table
  7. Wallter Slat Rack
  8. B&W Wall Hook
  9. Peekaboo Console Table
  10. * Blackened Metal Mirror
  11. Strut Console Table

* I love numbers 1, 2, and 10 together. (I also like 6, 8, and 10 a lot.) What about you?

    11, 10 and 7, but then again I love color!

      Me too! I love the colors, but also the lines and how they compliment each other!

    I chose 1, 2, and 10 as well! Funny.

      Me, too! I always liked the Hang It All with more traditional pieces.

    love the rolly console table and have lusted after eames for decades. I actually was drawn to the vintage wood carved mirror from ‘related posts’… but that’s not really modern, is it? can’t wait to see the finished entryway.

  • Crystal

    Love the hang-it-all! 1, 11 and 4.

  • Desiree Fawn

    Hmm… I think 6, 7, 10 would be my choices. That green is SO rad <3

    I’d love to have 2. My entryway into my apartment is really awkward because it’s narrow and there are three doors that come off of it immediately. Stuff just gets piled on the floor. I love that 2 is really short and narrow, so it would fit in the space. 11 is also cute, but I tend to lean towards wooden things :)

  • SuSa
    April 26, 2011 at 9:21 am

    I would do:
    1 – 5 + 5 – 11

    or 1 – 4 – 11

  • Danielle
    April 26, 2011 at 9:21 am

    I’d pick 5, 8 and 11. I really love round mirrors.

  • Kerri
    April 26, 2011 at 9:26 am

    I’m going with 5, 6, and 7. I love the Eames Hang-it-all, but I really like that slat rack very much.

  • Amanda @ Our Humble A{Bowe}d

    I love 7,9, and 10.

    It was a tough choice, but I’m thinking I’d choose 11, 5, and 8! Loving all of the options.

  • Catherine
    April 26, 2011 at 9:30 am

    5, 8 (x3) & 11

    Fun! This should be a regular feature!

    This is fun! I love everyone’s combinations. You really can’t go wrong with any three!

  • Angie M.
    April 26, 2011 at 9:32 am

    I like 10, 11, and 8. I like the clean lines, the punch of color, and a slightly more traditional twist.

  • Marti
    April 26, 2011 at 9:42 am

    Will you continue to do the Making it Yours series? It’s one of my favorite features of your site. I was disappointed when DesignSponge started “Make it Yours” – it seems like encroachment!

    • Making it Lovely
      April 26, 2011 at 10:11 am

      Yes, I’ll continue the MiY series! They just take a lot of time to put together, and things have been hectic around here! Now that August is moving past the early newborn stage, I may start to have more time again.

  • Kristina
    April 26, 2011 at 9:46 am

    11 and 7 for sure, but I think I’d want maybe a vintagey mirror frame around a rectangular mirror. No idea, really, but I love 11 to death.

  • Kati
    April 26, 2011 at 9:49 am

    I love 6, 8, and 10. Classic with some quirk. What a fun post!

  • Kate
    April 26, 2011 at 9:51 am

    I’d choose 5, 8, and 11 — black and white and a pop of that watermelon color would look great!

  • jenn
    April 26, 2011 at 9:56 am

    6+7 or 8+11

    the coat rack in number 1 is over done. every one has that rack. laaame.

  • annabelvita
    April 26, 2011 at 9:56 am

  • Loren
    April 26, 2011 at 10:05 am

    For my current entry I’d go 1,2,10.
    But if I had a different/bigger space I absolutely love #11-7-10
    Or 9-3-10

  • Heidi

    5, 6, 8, baby! (Though 1 is a close call.)

    1, 10 and 11 for me.

  • Catherine
    April 26, 2011 at 11:10 am

    I’d choose 1, 5, 6. I love the hooks and would hope the bright colors would encourage my kids to use them. I like the long narrow table (and really like strut table but that’s *too* much color for my space). The round mirror is just enough to see that I don’t have lipstick on my teeth, not so much that I get a view of myself hauling in groceries.

    This is fun, let’s play again!

  • nichole
    April 26, 2011 at 11:22 am

    1, 10, & 11

    funny, i have the slat rack (7) in orange and the anthro hook (8) in my entryway: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v168/k8ejane/coatrackhook.jpg

    however it’s just a cheapy ikea molger bench underneath them, but it fits best..

  • amyks
    April 26, 2011 at 12:50 pm

    I like 1, 5, 11…or 2,5 & 7. I agree that the Eames hang it all is overplayed, but using it with the red console ties the colors together. Now we just need to see some rug choices:)

  • Tiffany

    4, 6, and 8… or 2, 10, and 8.

  • Carla
    April 26, 2011 at 1:26 pm

    So many good options! I think I’d pick 1, 4, 11

  • Kasey
    April 26, 2011 at 1:39 pm

    I’m all about color, so I’d put #1 rack with #4 mirror over #11 table.

  • Dacia
    April 26, 2011 at 2:55 pm

    I would go with 5, 8, and 11. I love the pop of bring pink that the console table gives and then I’d stick with a black and white theme for everything else!

  • Jojo
    April 26, 2011 at 2:56 pm

    I would LOVE 2, 7 and 5 together if that mirror had a different finish on the frame. So, maybe 2, 7 and 10…? I am totally in love with that coat rack.

  • marichucky
