Front Porch Dressed Up for Fall

September 26, 2017 Rachel 9 Comments

Today I’m sharing how I dressed up my small front porch for fall using pumpkins, mums, and lanterns. I also added a couple pillows and a throw to the bench, to make things a little more inviting. Thanks to Joss & Main for sponsoring this front porch tour! I love perusing their site to find seasonal and stylish outdoor decor for less.

Front Porch Dressed Up for Fall

Ever since I gave my home exterior the makeover it deserved this past summer by painting the brick and shutters, installed tile, and building stained columns, I imaged decorating the space for fall. I wanted something a little more refined and a little less country compared to last year’s fall front porch.

So I kept things a tad simpler with the same bench, but instead added lots of pretty mums, a few pumpkins, and several lanterns.

I also added a garden stool to give things a bit of a height variation. I also like the shiny finish on it– breaks up all that texture. ๐Ÿ™‚

Oh and in case you are wondering… YES I photoshopped some mums in my number planter! hahaha! I totally forgot to plant some in there and didn’t even notice until I was editing pictures. So sue me! ๐Ÿ˜‰

I quickly took a couple full-view shots yesterday before I took everything down… I have a photoshoot happening tomorrow and they need the front of the house to look like summer! Crazy blogger life! Don’t worry–I’ll put my fall stuff up again this weekend… but right now there are all kinds of purple and pink flowers hanging out where all the mums are in these pics! Crazy blogger life! ๐Ÿ˜‰

    I LOVE it!!! Thank you for not doing an all-white set up! I’m sooooo bored of that. Thank you for having colour but not an obnoxious amount. This is truly lovely…and what I’d like to copy.

    LOVE your style! Would you please tell me the paint color of your house and the color of the shutters. It is the exact combo I have been looking for. Thanks!!

    What did you use over your concrete porch? Is it tile or brick veneers?
