Decorating our Front Porch for Fall!

18 Sep 2019 Home, Our Home

Fall Front Porch Decor

Fall Front Porch Decor

One of my favorite parts about our house is the covered side front porch we have that goes into our family room and kitchen. It’s such a nice space to have because lots of times the kids will be playing in the driveway or in the cul-de-sac and we can perch right on that swing and watch them. The sun also sets on this side of the house so it’s super lovely to enjoy a nice glass of wine in the evenings! I love making it feel cozy and changing up the decor seasonally.

You all know I love summer BUT fall might take the cake for decorating because I feel like there is just so much you can do! I love adding layers like pillows and blankets, and I can not get enough of the heirloom pumpkins.  Brian might have a heart attack when he sees the grocery bill for this month 😬I can’t leave without two!

I wanted to add some decorating tips in this post for decorating your exterior space for fall!

Lots Of Soft Textures

I love using blankets and pillows wherever I can, but when it’s outside it really makes it feel cozy, like you want to just sit down and snuggle up! I love this buffalo check pillow and I was able to snag this set of 2 for under $18!! How great is that?! I used some soft pink pillows I already had on hand to break up the check and love the warm colors.

Decorating with pumpkins

Natural Elements

Heirloom pumpkins!! They come in all colors, love the blues and pinks and I usually try and make the little areas feel like they are spilling over with pumpkins so I lean or prop them up and then arrange them all next to each other for that robust effect.

I also used some hydrangea flowers we had which are at the tail end of their season and put them in a sturdy vase filled with water for some additional texture.

Mums

I found these beautiful wooden planters and LOVE how beautiful they look with mums inside! I will definitely be using these all year long!

Let There Be Light

Candles are wonderful, but a tad dangerous when they are on the floor with little kids running around. I found these battery powered candles and put them in some lanterns I had at the house. The glow looks so nice at nice, and such a nice element to have when people arrive! I linked some similar lanterns here and here.

Dress Up Your Walls

We have a screen over this door which I know isn’t the prettiest but it’s so functional for when we want to leave the door open but without the bugs. Ask me how many times the kids have run through it…actually don’t ask me. It makes it a little challenging to hang a wreath so I found a spot right next to the door where the wreath looks pretty! I love the bright orange colors of this wreath, it really pops!

We also had this pretty gather sign that I thought looked perfect hanging from the windows. I love the word “gather” at an entrance, I feel like it welcomes people before they even walk in the door!  The perfect addition to our fall front porch decor.

Walmart has SO many affordable Fall front porch decor options.  And honestly, when you’re sprucing up your decor seasonally, or for the holidays, it’s nice to not break the bank! The pieces I chose don’t scream fall so I do feel like you can use them in your home all year long.

We’re currently in Phase 1 of our Costa Rican ad We’re currently in Phase 1 of our Costa Rican adventure. This is the two week decompression period where we train our bodies and minds to slow down (this is more for me than anyone else), and let me tell you, I’m lapping it up.  We’re spending all day outside at the beach, going to bed early, eating lots of fresh fruit and healthy foods, swimming in the ocean, I’m working out and meditating in the mornings, and having fun together. For someone who is usually always in high gear, this part is my gift to myself 🐚 

We are staying at a beautiful place in papagayo with @exclusiveresorts and it feels very luxurious and restorative. 

The kids are already thriving. Being together 24/7 comes with its arguments and fights but they are learning how to just be with each other and with their crazy little brother. They’re helping a lot with him, learning a little Spanish, surfing, writing in their journals, and meeting kids from all over the world who are staying here as well. 

I’m letting us get pampered for this phase, and it feels really good. 

Thanks for coming along, I hope your year is off to an amazing start! Is there anything specific you’d like me to share about while we’re in this phase? I was thinking about sharing my morning workouts and meditations, but let me know!
Recently, I downloaded the Melissa Wood health app Recently, I downloaded the Melissa Wood health app @melissawoodtepperberg @melissawoodhealth and so far I’m loving the workouts. I try and do one every morning. They’re super quick so sometimes I do two. I like that they are gentle but hard. They incorporate a lots of yoga, pilates, breathing, stretching, balancing and all that good stuff. You can see from the videos I’m pretty shaky in the first couple clips, that balance is tough but I’m building up my strength, I can feel it 💪🏻
