It had been a while since I refreshed this side of our entry hall, but with fall in full swing I wanted to add something new. I created a cozy, functional update and I’m excited to share my fall entry makeover with you.

This fall entry inspiration post is in partnership with Walmart

Fall makeover with Walmart

Last week I finally tackled a small project I’d been thinking about. A quick browse online led me to affordable fall botanical artwork, a narrow storage bench with a hinged lid and hidden compartment, and reversible plaid pillows that fit the space perfectly.

It was an easy change, but the difference is noticeable and I love it.

To show the transformation, here’s what the entry hallway looked like when we first moved in:

And here it is now:

It’s come a long way and feels warmer and more inviting.

I don’t always decorate heavily for each season, but I enjoy creating when inspiration strikes. Your home should make you happy—decorate in ways that feel right for you.

There are many ways to update a space for fall: adjust the color palette, layer textures, add organic elements, or swap artwork and accessories that reflect the season. Nature provides endless inspiration—notice what appeals to you and bring those elements into your home.

This update added seasonal style but also increased the entry’s functionality and warmth.

The bench gives me a convenient spot to tuck shopping bags and items we need to grab on the way out the door, keeping the area tidy and practical.

I enjoy evolving my home gradually—each small update adds function and joy and helps me continue to love the home I have.

I’m already looking forward to swapping the artwork for other seasons. Rotating art is an easy way to refresh the space without a major overhaul.

Walmart Home offers many stylish, budget-friendly options that make it simple to add function and seasonal style in one place. Shopping a single store made this refresh quick and affordable. Below are some of the items I found and liked.

If projects feel overwhelming, start with a clean slate and focus on function first—then add style. That approach helped when we first moved in and it’s a good way to make progress without stress.

Give yourself permission to change a space slowly as time, opportunity, and inspiration allow. There’s no hurry to finish everything at once.

A home can continue to evolve and remain beautiful and functional in every season.

A quick note on creativity: when I limit outside distractions—like excessive social media—I feel more inspired to create at home. Does that resonate with you?

Does your home evolve over time, and do you enjoy updating it through the seasons?
