Looking for some hallway decor inspiration? Hallways can be difficult to decorate and so we’ve compiled this list of some of our favourite hallway decor ideas that will make your hallway both more pretty and more functional to help give you some inspiration. Let’s get started with our favourite decor ideas for hallways!
1. Photo Gallery + Wall Sconces
This is a very typical hallway decor idea but is one that truly never disappoints!
A photo gallery is literally the perfect wall decor idea for a hallway to make it feel more personal to your home and is also a really practical decor idea too if there isn’t a lot of space for anything to be off the wall in your hallway. 🖼️😌
2. Pedestal Table With Floral Arrangement
This is such a classy look for your hallway which will make your home feel so much more premium and high end! 🤭💅
The type of floral arrangement and even the type of pedestal you choose for your hallway can totally change the look of the space so be sure to spend a bit of time choosing what feels right for your home.
3. Add A Bench
Benches give hallways such a chic look and are also really practical as they provide an extra space to sit in your home.
This is a particularly great entryway idea as you can use it for putting shoes on before going out the door but is also a great hallway decor idea in general for anywhere in your home as it can also be used as a reading nook too!
4. Make Use Of Unique Lighting/Chandeliers
Literally obsessed with the way this hallway has made use of multiple unique chandeliers for a whimsical yet elevated look with the lights almost guiding you down through the hallway. 🥹🫶
Lighting does not need to be strictly practical! Lighting can really provide the perfect sophisticated finishing touch when decorating your home to make the spaces in your home just feel so much more put together.
5. Incorporate Hidden Built-in Storage
Such a cool and practical idea that will just give you so much more storage in your home!
Of course built-ins aren’t an easy addition to your home but if you are currently renovating or are planning to, this is something that will really make your hallways a much more useful space and the storage it provides will make it something you definitely will not regret incorporating.
6. Open Shelves
This is a shelf decor idea that you can really make your own and can have a lot of fun styling.
From photos to trinkets and literally anything you may wish to display, open shelves give you such a great canvas to help you achieve the look you want and make your hallways feel more personal to you.
7. Create A Library
Libraries are always a great look in a home and something about a hallway library just looks SO chic and cool! 🥹💅
If you are someone who reads a lot or just has lots of books that need a new and improved home, this hallway decor idea is literally such a must.
8. Style A Bench Or Table With Magazines & Books
Stacked magazines and coffee table books have such a unique way of making a space look more sophisticated yet relaxed at the same time.
Styling a bench or console table with loads of books not only creates a really aesthetically pleasing display but it also creates an informal library for guests in your home to choose magazines or books from to read. 😎💅
9. Incorporate Wall Hooks
The way these gold wall hooks contrast the wall is just so aesthetically pleasing! 🤭🫶
Wall hooks provide a really great place for you to hang so many things from jackets, if the hallway is near the front of your house, to baskets with floral arrangements to anything that you might wish to display really.
10. Switch Out Decor With The Seasons
Switching out decor with the seasons is a really great way to keep your decor feeling ‘fresh’ and to prevent you from getting tired of your decor (it is also really fun to make your decor seasonal). 🤭✨
From switching out your usual flower arrangements for autumnal flower arrangements when it is fall to adding cherry blossom scented candles in spring, the way in which you incorporate the seasons in your decor doesn’t have to be big and is totally up to you.
11. Place A Console Table
If you have the space, a console table is such a great addition to a hallway which gives you the best of both worlds, with a top area for you to work on a display plus shelving space to give you extra storage.
Console tables have become such a staple for hallways in the design world recently so if you are struggling to style yours, you can go on Pinterest and find literally THOUSANDS of console table displays to take some inspiration from! 😌💅
12. Create A Reading Nook
A reading nook makes for such a cute addition to any home so if you have a space for one, you should definitely consider creating one.
Reading nooks can be super simple, often only consisting of a chair and a side table, making your hallway a perfectly fit place to create one and will totally give your hallway a new life & purpose! 🥹🫶
