Dreaming of Chevron

Where are those questionnaires, ladies?  Let's go, now!  Chop Chop!!

So, I've been in the "I want to rearrange furniture and redecorate my whole house" type of mood lately.  It all started when I sent a big plant from my foyer to the curb...literally.  I never watered it, it was ugly, completely dried up, and frankly I just didn't want it in my house any longer.  In taking out the plant, I'm left with an entire corner of my foyer empty.  The space looks so much bigger now, and I just want to redecorate the entire area! Here are pictures of what I'm dealing with.

 

I've had the black table since I moved in.  It used to be under the mirror, but it left the doorway to the kitchen a little crowded.  I decided to move it to it's current location and it makes the area much more open.  Also, I always wanted a lamp on top of the table, but there wasn't an outlet on that wall.  Now that I've moved it to where you see it above, I do have an outlet.  I will be getting a cute lamp to go in my entryway asap.  I think it would be good to add some height. I'm thinking about moving the black corked cabinet door over the light switch and painting a canvas with my favorite verse on it to go over the black table.  I also want a round chevron rug to go in the doorway.  I need something large to cover the majority of the floor because some freak of nature person thought white laminate flooring was the way to go back then.  It is super hard to keep clean and regardless of how often I mop, it just looks dirty to me. Next issue....the wall with the mirror looks empty with nothing below it now.  There isn't enough space for another table or shelf.  Do I leave it or what other options do I have?  I'm open to suggestions.  So, all you Martha Stewarts and Candance Olsen's, hop on it!
