In case you’re looking for some fall porch decor ideas, I’m participating in a blog hop hosted by Taryn of Taryn Whiteaker.com , so make sure you go check-out what she’s serving-up this fall, as well as what everyone else in the hop is doing (check the links at the bottom(.
With brown as the starting point and dominating colour for our front porch, I use blues, whites, and pinks to balance the colour palette. I’ve added a lot of pink, because, well, how can I not! I was also able to recycle a lot of my Spring ORC // here // planters and stools from HomeSense in my fall decor, so I’m quite pleased about that. I also thrifted those chinoiserie planters from our local Value Village and have a few more inside too.
It’s proof that when you purchase patterns and styles you love, they’ll transcend seasons and become year-round gems. I find a lot of those at HomeSense though, and I hope you do too.
I think the fall mum and straw flower are perfect blooms for the season. They’re hardy, colourful and will give your space life and fill it with colour – sounds like my ideal colourful floral fall porch flower.
I’ve added some Astors and Celosia too, because variety is the spice of life!
The same can be said of the pumpkin situation happening here; I’ve got fake mixed with real and it looks great.
I think the “sloppy” black and white striped planter adds some fun to the otherwise strict lines of the geometric planter and the fine detail of the chinoiserie planter.
I used DecoArt’s Decor OutDoor Living paint for the job and it so far it has lasted an entire summer and is still going strong.
I really wish I could paint my front door. It would help offset the brown, but sadly I am stuck with this white door for the next few years.

So, layering applies to front door mats as well. Cool!
it sure does! I started noticing it on porches last season, but went for it this year and love it!
So pretty and welcoming Ariel. i love that you showcased all the late-season flowers rather than replacing them. beautiful.
Thank you Jane 🙂 I live in a typically Canadian climate, so I would feel silly putting anything but appropriate flowers out there 🙂
this is so beautiful, as usual! I’m sure you’re the envy of all your neighbors. You truly have such a natural talent for putting color and patterns together. 🙂
Erica! You always come out of left field with such a nice comment. Thank you friend <3
Your porch space looks so pretty Ariel! I love your passion for colour! And the layered mat…it’s awesome…I need to find a plaid layer now hahaha!
Love all of your mixed bright happy fall colors. I think it looks especially welcoming and fun.
All that beautiful colour draws your eye away from the neutral brown and white – it looks so welcoming and cheery!!
Thank you so much Krista! It’s exactly what I was trying to do
Your porch is so welcoming and happy Ariel!! Love all of your blooms and colorful gourds!! Happy Fall!
