Fall Small Porch Decor

I’ve shared our porch before.

There isn’t much to it. The door is to the left and there is a small covering above.

One day I would love a porch big enough for a swing! Or some other seating and space to take off muddy boots.

Porch before fall decor.

This view is what you see as you come up the stairs.

To prevent blocking the walking path, most decorations have to be up against the railing.

Gourds and grasses.

This year when we visited our favorite pumpkin patch they were selling corn stalks for $1!!

I really wanted to buy some to use on the porch and around the yard, but we had my family in tow and there just wasn’t enough room for all of us plus the stalks. I’ll plan for corn stalks next year!

Walking around the local nursery I saw all of the grasses were on sale for end of the season clearance.

The height of the grass above gives the same effect as a corn stalk!

I didn’t end up using those small gourds outside, but next year I’d like to incorporate them in a different way.

Incorporate existing plants.

The thyme in the white planter and clematis on the railing are still healthy and work with the color palette of the new plants I added.

Variety of planters.

No need to stick to all terra cotta, wood, glazed ceramic when planting.

Use different pots to achieve a collected look.

The wood planters also look charming around our newly stained pergola!

Vary the textures.

If you have a covered porch, add an old scarf or blanket over a table to add layers and texture.

The grape vine pumpkin also adds some texture variation while maintaining the organic look.

Adorn your door.

Even if you have no porch at all, you can still get in the spirit of the season and decorate your door!

A small hanging basket filled with dried or fake flowers is an easy way to make your entry more festive.

The front door isn’t very visible from the street, so the decorations are really just for us and our guests.
