5 easy tricks to make your tiny hallway look much bigger and fool guests as soon as step into your front door
A DIY fan has shared how she transformed her tiny entryway to make use of lost space and make it seem bigger.
The decorator said people always assume that her entryway is big on camera because of the clever changes she made.
The creative who foes by @Grillodesigns shared her tips and tricks in a TikTok video online.
She said: “Here are five things I’ve done to make my small entrance feel bigger than it actually is!”
The first thing the DIY fan changed was the decor, she uses brighter floor tiles and paint to make use of the sun shining through her front door.
She said: “I covered the previous dark flooring with a lighter flooring and I painted the wall from white to grey.”
Next the decorator installed higher shelving so that she makes use of the lost vertical space in her entryway.
She said: “I installed a floating shelf to make use of the vertical wall space.”
However the items that will be stored there are seasonal so there won’t be loads of hassle with everyday access.
The DIY fan “All of our seasonal items are kept in these white label boxes.”
Like many of us the creative said she has a lot of shoes so she adapted an open cupboard to hold more shoe space.
She said “Our shoes are stored away in baskets underneath this compact bench. We also built custom shelves inside the small cupboard to hold more of our shoes cause we have a LOT!”
