I was given the big "E" as a gift a few years ago and have never found the right home for it. I started there. I bought the starfish on our trip to Destin FL last summer and put them in a glass hurricane. (I LOVE having elements from the ocean and beach around my house as it is my favorite place!!!) The candlesticks were a clearance purchase from Hobby Lobby about 3 or 4 years ago. I never had a good place for them, so they sat on top of a small chest in the family room. (Do you think they need candles?? I king of like them empty.) The green "ball" was a gift this past Christmas. It is a set of three, the other two are in the powder bath. I thought the space could use an dash of color, green works well I think. And of course, I left the mirror. I like to use mirrors in entryways, it makes the space seem larger than it is.
So that is my entryway make over. What do you think?? Does it look better?? What would you add or do differently?? (Please don't say the tile!! I know it needs to go soon! So out of date!!!)

Meredith-
I definitely like your entry makeover. I love the mirror in both photos and I think the E really brings a sense of rich color to the area. It makes it warm and inviting, well done!
I think it looks great! The table is perfect and I love the starfish!
I really like it. It's a subtle change, but it's now complete :)
LOVE it....perfect balance. Not too much...just right! I WANT one of those letters. I looked at a house last week that I would have sworn was staged (wasn't) and she had an "s" and I thought....we need one! So now I am on a mission to find an H!
What do you think about bringing back your white petal flowers but putting them in a clear glass vase? Then replace the candlesticks with the flowers. I also think adding a personal photo would look great somewhere on the top or underneath...adds warmth. =) I love starfish also and have them displayed in my home as well.
