Fall Front Porch

Here are a few ideas for decorating your front porch for Fall using farmhouse-inspired touches.

The air is starting to change and the crickets are chirping away signaling that Fall is on the way. I’m starting to think about how I want to decorate outside on my porch this year.

I was scrolling through some of my pictures of past Fall front porches and thought I’d share my favorite.

I love to use traditional Autumn colors; especially here in New Hampshire, the Fall foliage makes such a beautiful backdrop for your porch decor.

This was one of my favorites! I mixed woods and metals.

The wooden crates and metal containers the mums are in I picked up flea marketing. I added burlap leaves to my pumpkins on the steps which looked charming.

The “Harvest” sign was a quick DIY using chalk paint, a precut piece of wood from Lowe’s, and stencils. It’s so easy.

DIY Harvest sign

• Grab a piece of the precut 4ft pine boards from Lowe’s or the HD.
• Paint the board with orange chalk paint, let dry
• Use large letter stencils to trace on the HARVEST with pencil
• Fill in the stencils with white chalk paint

There was a mix of faux and real pumpkins and a few made out of grapevine.

Another Fall Front Porch Look

Here’s another view of my porch from a different year. I added the wooden cart filled with pumpkins and a couple of other flea market items (the old milk jug and the metal watering can).

This year I used a grapevine garland around my door and a different Autumn wreath (I have a wreath hoarding problem!).

I hand-painted this sign using a photo I saw on Pinterest as my guide.

The milk jug was a flea market find-it’s from an old creamery in Massachusetts.
