STYLING TIPS

Write down the full width and depth of your porch so you know exactly how much room you’re working with.

1.MEASURE YOUR SPACE

Choose two or three colors that match your home’s siding, trim, or front door.

2.PICK YOUR COLORS

Look for a rug that fits your space without covering too much of the porch. A runner or long mat helps define the entry and adds comfort underfoot.

3.ADD A NARROW RUG OR MAT

Consider adding a small chair, bench, or garden stool if you have the space.

4.INCLUDE A SMALL SEAT IF YOU CAN

Hang up a small shelf, planter, or seasonal wreath to bring in interest without using valuable floor space.

5.USE THE WALL

Bring in gentle lighting like a small lantern, some string lights, or a flameless candle to use at night.

6.ADD SOFT LIGHTING

Avoid packing too many things onto your porch, as this can make it feel cramped and difficult to use.

7.KEEP IT SIMPLE

Try placing decorations or furniture so the porch feels even and not lopsided.

8.BALANCE THE SPACE

Swap in one or two small seasonal pieces like a welcome sign, small flag, or plant that fits the time of year.

9.ADD SEASONAL ITEM
