Foyers can be tricky to decorate, don't you think? Our foyer is by no means large at, 11' 8" x 4' 4," but it's not really tiny either. This is the first house we've owned that has a foyer. We liked our little Craftsman bungalow in Greensboro, but it didn't have a foyer.
I think the first order of business in decorating a foyer is to have a few pieces of furniture for your space. When we moved here from our first home, we didn't have any furniture that would have looked right in a foyer. We were very fortunate, because my husband's grandmother gave us her lyre harp table with a marble top, and it's the perfect size for the dimensions of our foyer.
