You’ve heard it said before, “You never get a second chance to make a first impression.” When you have guests arriving at your home, as they cross the threshold, they get their first glance at how you choose to live your life – their first glimpse of “you.”
How you choose to adorn your entryway/foyer is telling – traditional styling, busts of Plato and muted colors may tell a story that you are a conservative old-fashioned type. Austere surroundings, pencil stick lighting and a strict adherence to a monochrome color scheme may paint you as a minimalist. Wacky colors and whimsical décor may peg you as eclectic.
The point is, this is where you make your first impression. Selecting just the right chandelier for your foyer is key – not only does it provide illumination and security, but it’s the first thing people will notice when they enter your home on a dark evening. But with the kind of selection available at Bailey Street Home, how do you narrow it down to provide that wow-factor you desire?
We’ve put together some of our favorite foyer chandelier ideas to embolden you to step-up your lighting game where you need it most – right at the front of your home. Let’s look at some of our favorites…
