Fun & Fabulous Fall Porch Decor
It’s that time of year. We start thinking about cooler weather, sweaters and scarves, and pumpkin spice lattes. We may begin daydreaming about pumpkin patches, apple orchards, and hayrides. It is also time when we begin imagining how we will decorate for fall. One of the most popular places to decorate for the season is your front porch or entryway.
Nothing says autumn like a festive, decorated porch. Whether you hope to create beauty with quintessential potted chrysanthemums and pumpkins, or a spooky vibe with skeletons, the following fall decorated porches will inspire you.
A beautiful fall themed porch is guaranteed to impress friends and family. Some of the most popular fall decor for front porches includes wreaths, bushel baskets, pumpkins, lanterns, cornstalks, and potted plants and flowers.
Those fortunate enough to have large porches often use comfortable furniture such as benches, rocking chairs and porch swings cozied up with throw pillows and afghans. I love the simple rockers here in front of the over-sized wreath.
Brooms, skeletons, signs, and witches hats are also used to create a spooky fall vibe. I am a big fan of graphic floor rugs such as the one above to add additional porch flair.
Baskets and burlap banners, garlands, gourds and chalkboards also add autumn ambiance. I love the antique framed chalkboard above the cozy farmhouse bench here.
If you don’t like classic fall colors like orange and brown, use neutrals like @shannongolddesign did above. White offers a fresh, elegant feel.
Don’t forget setting the tone for evening. Mood lighting including string lights and the soft flicker of battery operated candles inside lanterns creates a comfortable and inviting setting here.
The use of symmetry helps balance this small area while providing a stunning display.
If you don’t feel like breaking the bank to get a fun fall look on your porch, consider using what you have. Gather branches of colorful leaves from your backyard and place in a vase, or use baskets, birdcages or more filled with dried flowers and gourds for a festive feel.
