fall entryway decor

Pumpkin Patch Welcome

This entry consists of warm wood, soft pumpkins, and a vintage scale to set a cozy tone.

Start with a “Pumpkin Patch” or any other fall-themed sign, golden leaves, and a simple hat hook to keep it friendly.

The weathered ladder, apples, and basket of pumpkins add that orchard feel. Firewood, worn boots, and a neutral rug make the entry relaxed, tidy, and ready for fall.

Definitely, not something you’ll see often!

Stairway Harvest Welcome

Looking for something bright, airy, and full of fall cheer. Use a round wood table to anchor the corner with warm candles and leafy branches.

White lanterns glow at the base, while a mix of red, green, and creamy pumpkins spills along the stairs. The striped ottoman and wood bowl add texture. Simple, polished, and so inviting for autumn.

Moody Minimal Fall Entry

This entry gives clean and to the point. This shows you don’t need to decorate the entry extravagantly to make a statement.

Get a round black mirror, a matte black vase with warm leaves, and a soft table lamp to set a calm glow. A few pumpkins and a simple sketch add just enough autumn without clutter. Chic, simple, and welcoming.

Warm Farmhouse Entry

Very soft and welcoming while getting the job done. A white shelf with hooks holds a cozy throw and a harvest wreath.

The rustic bench gets plush fall colored pillows, tall candlesticks, and a single pumpkin below. Rubber boots and a leafy fiddle leaf finish the look. Simple, tidy, and ready for guests.

Natural Neutrals Fall Entry

This is a simple way to decorate your entryway. A round mirror, pampas grass, and warm wood set a soft mood.

Simple vases, a knit pumpkin, and a small candle add gentle fall notes. Woven baskets with pillows and a chunky throw keep it tidy and inviting. Minimal, warm, and effortless.

Bold Harvest Welcome

This is what I called sticking to the original color palette for fall. That chunky wood mirror steals the show, and the fiery wreath brings instant warmth.

Start by layering bright leaves across the console, then tucked in a few plush pumpkins for texture and color.

It feels full and festive, but still simple to pull together. Perfect for greeting guests and setting a cozy autumn mood right at the door.

Spooky-Chic Entry Tree

Talk about a showstopper. I don’t decorate for Halloween, but for those who do, you’ll love this.

This Halloween tree greets you with layers of ribbon, plaid, and playful signs. Mixed pumpkins and vintage touches spill onto the floor for extra drama.

The oversized clock and black-and-white rug tie it all together. It feels festive, a little spooky, and so fun for fall guests. Also, you can easily swap out this decor for Christmas!

Pop of Autumn at the Door

This spot feels cheerful and easy. The bubble mirror adds playful shine, while tall stems and a patterned vase bring height.

Be sure to tuck simple pumpkins and candles on the console, then slide signs and stools to the sides for balance. A few textured pumpkins below finish the look. Bright, tidy, and ready to welcome fall.

Autumn Leaves and Pumpkins Entry

A bright red door and a sunflower wreath set the scene the second you walk in. The bench stays practical, but cozy, with a tassel throw, plush pumpkins, and a small candle for warmth.

A bold wall sign says, ‘autumn leaves and pumpkins, please’, while scattered maple leaves pull the look together.

A basket of blooms and a slim black cabinet add texture and balance without crowding the space.

I Love Fall Most of All Entry

Prop a scripted fall sign on your console to set the mood right away. Cluster pumpkins in mixed textures, like ceramic, knit, and rattan, for cozy depth.

Add amber bottles with burnt-orange stems for height and warmth. Keep it grounded with a burlap runner and a vintage lamp so the nook feels collected, not cluttered.

Pumpkin Pile Entry

Stack oversized pumpkins by the console to make an instant fall moment. Drape a lighted pumpkin garland for a soft glow, then balance it with a tall glass vase and simple white blooms.

Tuck in a knit basket and a rust velvet cushion that says hello pumpkin for cozy texture. Finish with a slim marquee sign so guests spot the theme before they step inside.

Neutral Harvest Entry

Keep it calm with warm neutrals and natural texture. A wreath on the closet door adds soft charm, while a magnolia-leaf garland dresses the hook rail.

Hang woven baskets for keys, scarves, and quick grab-and-go. Anchor the space with a scalloped jute rug and a simple round mirror so the entry feels airy, tidy, and fall-ready.

Farm Fresh Welcome

Line a wooden bench with chunky knit pillows and a pumpkin-print accent for instant coziness. A simple magnolia wreath and black hooks keep the wall clean and warm.

Add lantern sconces for a soft glow at night. Slide a wood crate under the bench for hidden shoe or scarf storage so the entry stays tidy.

Moody Pumpkin Glow

Border a dark cabinet with twin lamps for instant warmth. Top it with a trio of pumpkins, then echo the look with a leafy wreath between arched window frames.

Tuck extra pumpkins and faux leaves inside the cabinet for depth. The layered light and rich tones make this entry feel cozy and dramatic. Not to mention, its budget-friendly!

Sweet Fall Console

Roll out a kraft paper quote to set the tone, then style the console with simple whites and soft wood. Mix mini pumpkins, candlesticks, and a tiny birdhouse for playful height.

Add woven baskets and a fringed throw below for texture and quick storage. A wooden hi tag on the side makes the whole setup feel friendly and fresh.

Calm & Cozy Fall

Style a slim console with warm orange stems and a clear-glass lamp for balance. Layer a few vintage books, a framed print, and knit pumpkins to keep it simple and inviting.

Drape a herringbone throw over a wooden chair for texture and an easy grab on chilly mornings. The oversized mirror reflects light, so the entry feels open and calm.

Hello Fall Console

Let a bold hello fall sign do the talking, then layer soft greens and white lanterns for glow. Tuck a farmhouse bucket of blooms on the lower shelf with a plaid pillow and cozy throw.

Add a woven basket for texture and quick storage. Light, fresh, and ready for pumpkin season.

Final Thoughts

You don’t need a full makeover to make your entry pop. A few pumpkins, a warm lamp, and a textured rug can shift the whole mood.

Pick a theme, repeat your colors, and keep one spot functional for keys and bags. Decorate once, light a fall-scented candle, and enjoy those cozy greetings every time you walk into your home.
