Don't Forget The Front Porch!

Wondering how to decorate your front porch? Why should you decorate your front porch? It is often said the first impressions are everything, so it's worth paying attention to your front porch. It is, after all, the first thing people will see as they enter your home.

It doesn't matter if you have a small porch or a large porch, you can easily create an outdoor atmosphere that you can use and guest will feel welcomed by. Simple use of potted green plants or colorful flowers in pots can bring warmth and welcoming.

Placement of rockers, benches and wooden chairs, says..."come sit awhile". Then adding texture with as throw or pillows with patterns and prints can add depth to the decorating theme and help create an outdoor living space right there on your front porch.

Adding a wreath is a nice touch, it doesn't have to be Christmas to hang a wreath on the front door. Tie in the wreath with the plants or flower pots you use, to keep your outdoor theme welcoming.

Invite guests for an outside visit on your front porch. Make the space cozy as can be. Then get the ice tea ready or morning coffee on a tray and sit relaxing on your front porch, listening to songs of the birds around your home. Feel the sun's warmth and count your blessings!
