Cozy Fall Porch Ideas

If you’d like to give a nod to the approach of autumn but aren’t fully ready to set out pumpkins yet, consider these more subtle ideas for decorating your front porch.


You can say hello to the new season without completely showing summer the door by decorating with sunflowers. These bright and cheerful blooms will bring a smile to passersby and visitors alike. Attach them to a wreath to hang on a porch wall or your front door, or place real or faux ones in a pot or basket set by your entryway. Lean totally into the season by hanging a wreath of colorful leaves or inserting sprigs of them in a tall vase by your door.



Don’t abandon your porch rocker or bench just because sweater weather is approaching—simply put out a warm plaid or woven blanket, and you’ll be good to go. By placing a metal lantern fitted with a wax or battery-powered candle on your porch or hanging a few twinkling fairy lights, you’ll be able to stay outdoors longer and enjoy the cooler air even as the days shorten.


Finally, roll out a soft and comfortable outdoor area rug in seasonal hues like orange, red, yellow, or brown, and add a doormat or a decorative sign emblazoned with an autumn sentiment or fall leaves to fully welcome and embrace the season.
