Pile on the Pumpkins

If you’re decorating for fall you should always start with pumpkins! There’s so many different shapes, sizes, and colors to choose from. Orange pumpkins create a more traditional look while stacked pumpkins add height.

Decor Tip: For October, go with a spooky porch easel that your trick or treaters will never forget!

 

Fall Floral

Faux floral gives you a harvest look without all the maintenance work! The first thing every front door needs is a colorful wreath! Finish off your look with a garland wrapped around your door frame.

 

Artful Accents + Garden Flags

If you have a covered patio, add fall inspired art to your front porch! Simple phrases are a perfect reminder that Autumn is finally here. If you want something a little more personal, add a monogram flag to your garden!

 

Lanterns

Light up your front porch with seasonal lanterns! These are great for every season, but especially in cooler months when it gets dark earlier in the day. Larger lanterns can make a bold statement in your look while also serving a functional purpose of providing a soft glow.

Decor Tip: Fill your lanterns with small pumpkins for fall florals for an extra seasonal look!

 

Welcome Mats

Style Tip: Layer your doormat with a scatter rug for a trendy look!
