My poor hubby walked out this morning and saw his prized planter destroyed, and I’ve never seen him so heartbroken over a plant 🤣

They left it alone all summer, but last night? Total devastation.
Fingers crossed they don’t make a salad bar out of the rest of our garden 🙃

One of the highlights? A full-blown date day in downtown Asheville 🏙️ We kicked things off with brunch at @theblackbirdrestaurant, wandered through cute shops like @mastgeneralstore + @anthropologie 🛍️, and wrapped it up with an incredible dinner at @ukiahrestaurant (10/10 recommend) 🍜

And of course… we couldn’t leave without chocolate from @asheville.chocolate 🍫 because dessert is a must, always.

Tips and Tricks for Styling a Fall Front Porch

I recently finished styling my fall front porch and I thought I would share with you all my tips and tricks for doing so. Especially since I just shared my tips and tricks for styling a fall table a few weeks ago!

I have been decorating our front porch for fall for about three years now and I’ve got to say, it’s my favorite season to do so. Mums, pumpkins, and cooler weather are my favorite.

It makes my coffee sipping in the mornings much more pleasant when I can see a wide array of pretty pumpkins!

Tips and Tricks for Styling a Fall Front Porch
I love the way the mums and pumpkins come together on the front porch steps to create a welcoming fall entryway!

This post contains affiliate links. Click here to read my disclosure policy.

Shop Around for the Best Prices

The only downside to decorating for a fall front porch is the prices. It can get kind of expensive if you are like me and go a little overboard on the mums and pumpkins!

So my first tip would be to just shop around your local area and see where you can find the best deals. I noticed my local Walmart had the best deals when it came to mums.

With them being only $6 a piece, I grabbed most of them while I was there.

Mums
All the pretty mums from Walmart!

Unfortunately, they were out of all the pretty pumpkins such as jarrahdale and fairytale, which is what I wanted. They had great prices on them though.

There was only one left in the bin (and it was cut so I didn’t get it) but it was only around $7. Which is much better than what I spent on pumpkins at Lowe’s.

I went to Lowe’s after Walmart and while they did have the pumpkins I was looking for, they came with a hefty price tag. It was like $12.98 per pumpkin.

Which is crazy but I know at our local farmers market, it is around the same prices too. Thankfully, I had a gift card but I would recommend keep stalking your local Walmarts for the best priced pumpkins!

Pumpkins
Such beautiful pumpkins from Lowe’s!

Buy Mums That Aren’t Fully Bloomed Yet

To get the most out of your mums this season, buy them when they aren’t fully bloomed. I know it seems kinda crazy to get flowers with no blooms, but it’s definitely worth it.

Especially since mums can be a little finicky and don’t last too long. If you get the ones that aren’t bloomed all the way, they will last you longer in the season.

Sometimes it can take a week or so before they fully bloom, but it is well worth the wait!

Mums and pumpkins in the car
You can see how most of my mums here have no blooms to them yet. And also, here’s another little bonus tip for you- lay towels down in your trunk to place all the mums and pumpkins on! That way you don’t get your car all dirty bringing everything home too.

Wash Your Pumpkins After Bringing Them Home

This tip for styling a fall porch is super important. Don’t forget to wash your pumpkins when you bring them home! Getting rid of all the dirt on them will help prevent them from rotting.

So don’t be afraid to purchase your pumpkins early in the season as long as you’re prepared to wash them. I used to buy pumpkins too early and didn’t know about washing them so they would always rot sooner rather than later.

I shared all about how to properly wash your pumpkins here last year so be sure to check that out if you haven’t yet.

Washing Pumpkins With Bleach Water

Clean Your Front Porch

Here’s another tip for Styling a Fall Front Porch, be sure to clean it! This may sound silly, but it definitely helps if you thoroughly clean your porch in between seasons.

I like to give mine a good mop down before adding new decor for the season on it. Plus, it also helps the porch look better when I take photos after I clean it.

We do get a lot of pollen around here and since my porch is stained a dark color, you can always easily see it. So that’s why I like to make sure it’s nice and clean before adding all my pretty decor out here.

Cleaning the Front Porch
Scrub a Dub Dub!

Pick One Spot To Focus On

I do have a rather long front porch, which I am very happy with, but if I wanted to place pumpkins and mums everywhere, it would cost me a fortune!

Another tip I have for styling a fall front porch is to just focus mainly on one area. Whether it be by the front door or the front steps, it definitely helps to just highlight one spot instead of everywhere.

I decided to highlight my front steps. Since you can clearly see them from the road and it creates a really welcoming fall entryway.

Mums and Pumpkins
Mums and Pumpkins
Here you can see more closely how I styled each side of my steps.

I alternated between the mums and pumpkins I bought on each stair and I am happy with the cascading look it created.

Also, on the bottom stairs, I planted some fall flowers in my vintage crocks.

Other Easy Ways to Add In Fall Decor on Your Front Porch

Here’s another important tip for styling a fall front porch- you don’t have to spend a ton of money to create a beautiful fall front porch.

You can easily just add in a few touches here and there to make it more fall like. Such as just grabbing a fun fall door mat! I got mine from Kirkland’s several years ago and I love the fact that it says to “come back with pumpkin spice”. Since I am a huge pumpkin spice lover.

Fall Door Mat
Here is the corner to my front door decor.

You could also make your own decor to save on money! Just like I did with my vintage inspired fall market signs. You can see them scattered about here on the front porch.

Or you could also make some easy pumpkin topiaries like I did as well to create a fall vibe. I also tend to keep everything else on the porch the same but just add in a few little fall touches.

For example, just switch out a wreath or some outdoor pillows and you’re good to go! Also, be sure to just re-use your decor too.

You don’t need to buy new fall decor every year. Just buy a few little things here and there as you need them and just continue to build on your current collection that way instead.

Add Some Cozy Lighting

When Styling a fall front porch, I love to make it cozy! So I tend to go overboard and add in some cozy lighting. Such as battery operated candles, light up pumpkins, and/or tea light candles.

I used both tea light candles and battery operated candles to create this look below on my front porch.

How cozy and beautiful!

Here’s a link below to a quick little video I did on this cozy front porch glow as well:

On my back screened in porch, I also added in a few cozy touches. I found these adorable light up pumpkins in various sizes and placed them around the porch.

They are so cozy and pretty at night! I also found this cute little sign as well to add to the fall porch decor!

Well I hope these little tips and tricks help you when you are styling a fall front porch as well. Do you normally decorate your porches for different seasons too?

Or do you mainly just decorate the inside of your home? I am crazy and love to do both!

    The last few years, I purchased pumpkins at the beginning of October and they lasted me through November without any rotting. This year I bought a bunch of pumpkins for my porch and they rotted in 2 weeks. I was so bummed! I’ll definitely have to buy a bunch more before we have our Halloween party and I’ll definitely be washing them! This porch turned out so beautifully.

      Oh no. How sad! I wonder if they had cuts in them already which caused them to rot faster? Good luck buying your next round!

    We don’t have a front porch like this – although I don’t think many places in the UK do. But I absolutely love these types of front porches and I love how you can do so much with them, so they’re really another space in your house. Your decor is so cute!

    Oh wow! I also don’t have such a nice front porch area that I could decorate! And if I did, I’m so sure I couldn’t outdo you! lol. I love those flowers but I didn’t know they were called mums! I’ve definitely learnt something new today. Thanks so much and you must be so pleased. All your hard work is showing.

    There is nothing better than a hot cup of coffee, a book, a blanket, and being surrounded by fall on my own front porch. I love these ideas-need to get some pumpkins!

When your sweet potato vine was thriving… until When your sweet potato vine was thriving… until the deer called in for a midnight buffet 😭🦌
My poor hubby walked out this morning and saw his prized planter destroyed, and I’ve never seen him so heartbroken over a plant 🤣

They left it alone all summer, but last night? Total devastation.
Fingers crossed they don’t make a salad bar out of the rest of our garden 🙃

Tourist in my own town? Yes please! 🙌 I took a Tourist in my own town? Yes please! 🙌 I took a little staycation last week and it was everything I needed- relaxing, fun, and filled with so much good food! 😋

One of the highlights? A full-blown date day in downtown Asheville 🏙️ We kicked things off with brunch at @theblackbirdrestaurant, wandered through cute shops like @mastgeneralstore + @anthropologie 🛍️, and wrapped it up with an incredible dinner at @ukiahrestaurant (10/10 recommend) 🍜

And of course… we couldn’t leave without chocolate from @asheville.chocolate 🍫 because dessert is a must, always.

Already missing my staycation life, but what a way to close it out! 🥹🫶

This is me every time we travel: no idea where we’re going, where we parked, or how we’re getting there 😂 I just grab my bag, follow my husband like a lost puppy, and hope for the best! Solo travel? Couldn’t be me, my anxiety would never allow it 😅 I’m proudly a passenger princess and he’s the human GPS. Balance, right? 😉✈️
