I found these adorable stackable pumpkins at Dollar Tree for only $5 each, and of course I immediately started thinking about how I could give them a little high-end fall makeover! 🍂

I started with a coat of black spray paint, then went over them with a metallic bronze spray paint to add the prettiest subtle shimmer. ✨ I finished them off with a cute little bow on top, and just like that—a simple Dollar Tree find looks like expensive fall porch decor! 🙌🏻

My porch definitely isn’t fully decorated for fall yet, but I think these DIY Dollar Tree pumpkins are a pretty cute start, don’t you?! 😍

There’s just something so satisfying about taking an inexpensive Dollar Tree find and transforming it into something that looks way more high-end! And this one was SO easy to do. 🎃

Who’s already dressing their pets up for Halloween Who’s already dressing their pets up for Halloween? 🎃👻

Apparently Little Miss Riley is NOT a fan of her new Halloween cat sweater… and she made that very clear. 😹 I, on the other hand, think she looks absolutely adorable in her tiny spooky outfit!

Honestly, I’m shocked we even got the sweater on her. She’s so fast that catching her is usually the hardest part. 😂 Don’t worry though—we only kept it on long enough for a quick fit check before Halloween, then took it right back off and rewarded her with plenty of treats for being such a good girl. 🖤

I have a feeling this may be the first and last time she models her Halloween outfit this year… unless the treats convince her otherwise. 🤣

Are your pets team “dress up for Halloween” or team “absolutely not”? 🎃🐈

Y’all know I’ve been dealing with a lot of stress Y’all know I’ve been dealing with a lot of stress lately, especially with all of my ongoing medical issues and still not having the answers or help I need. I thought picking up a paintbrush and trying a little creative hobby would be the perfect way to relax, clear my mind, and hopefully be a little therapeutic.

Then I saw these cute fall-themed paint by numbers kits and immediately thought, “Yep. This is right up my alley!” 😂 Something simple to keep my mind busy and get me into the cozy fall spirit.

Except… I forgot to factor in the tremors. 🤣

I started with what I thought was an easy one, fully convinced it was going to turn out adorable. Instead, my letters are all wonky, the paint definitely went outside the lines, AND I somehow dropped my paintbrush directly onto the canvas. 💀😂

But honestly? Despite the questionable artwork, it worked. It actually took my mind off everything for a little while, and I had so much fun doing it. Shaky hands and all. 🥹❤️

Maybe I’ll try another paint by numbers later this week and see if I can redeem myself. 😂🎨

Anyone else have a relaxing hobby that turns into a complete disaster but you keep doing it anyway? 😂👇🏻

Decorating Your Front Porch For Fall

I have definitely enjoyed decorating my front porch this year. I never really decorated our porch in our old house, but with our new porch we have a lot of room to decorate with and I didn’t want it to go to waste! In this post, I will share all about decorating your front porch for Fall and just how easy it is to do so.

I started decorating our porches during the spring when my mom gave me some beautiful plants for my birthday. In the past, I never really had a green thumb before or cared to learn much about plants.

But, after realizing how beautiful they looked on our porch, I quickly tried to become the best plant mom I could be! And I am happy to report that all those plants are still alive today!

So when fall rolled around, I knew I had to get some beautiful pumpkins and mums to fill our front steps with!

Fall Front Porch
Here is a view of our fall front porch this year!

Pumpkins

I just went to our local farmers market to pick out some fresh pumpkins since we do not have a local pumpkin patch near by.

I went with the neutral color scheme of peachy colored ones and blueish/greenish ones.

Pumpkin Spice
This is quite possibly my favorite doormat of all time.

I did not want the traditional bright orange colored pumpkins. I felt like having that color would clash with the look I was going for.

However, if you like the traditional pumpkins more, then go for it! Whatever you like best will work just fine!

Mums

I got a few of the mums from the Farmer’s Market as well. But I mainly got most of them from Ingles! They had the best prices for them and they are so pretty!

I started with a bunch of mums on our very top step and worked my way down.

Mums and Pumpkins on Front Porch Steps
Here is one side of my porch steps with the mums and pumpkins.

I started with three in a row on the top and ended with just one. Then on the lower two steps, I just added some pumpkins to those.

My goal was to look like it was cascading down, so I made the lower step less full. I am very happy with the way it turned out.

I also stacked a few pumpkins towards the bottom of the steps to give it more height.

How To Decorate Your Front Porch For Fall
And here is the other side!

How to Style the Pumpkins and Mums

I continued to stick with the neutral pumpkin colors as well and added more colors with the mums I chose.

I was having a hard time coming up with how I wanted to style it all at first, but after looking at Pinterest for inspiration and having my sweet hubby help me, I was very satisfied with the finished product!

If you need more tips and inspiration, be sure to check out my post all about my tips and tricks for styling a fall porch too!

I will share more pictures below of how the whole porch turned out!

My husband found me this vintage ladder for free! It has become a staple piece to decorate the porch with.
I found these beautiful hanging mums from the Farmer’s Market too and I bought ones that were hardly blooming, that way they lasted me a little longer this season. As you can see here, they are finally opening up!
Indian Corn for Fall
I put the indian corn I found here in this galvanized metal tin. My plan was originally to fill it with pumpkins, but I did not have enough!
Mums and Pumpkins
Love the way stacking pumpkins look!
Hey There Pumpkin Pillow
Always need to have a seasonal pillow of course on my rocking chairs too!
Pumpkin Door Mat
I fell in love with this doormat when I saw it and I just had to have it!

I absolutely love decorating the front porch with pumpkins and mums for fall.

Mums and pumpkins just scream that the Autumn season is here and it is definitely one of my favorite seasons so I love to decorate every spot that I can for it.

Do you all normally decorate your porch for fall too? Let me know what you like to decorate your front porch with below if you do!

Pin for later!

    Do you mean Ingles as in the grocery store? I’m going to check there for a good price on mums this season if so.
