My Fall Porch Decor

I finally got around to putting up my  fall porch décor this year. I loved my neutral fall porch from last year and still wanted to keep some of the elements but I also wanted to change it up a bit and I’m excited about how it turned out! It’s still neutral but the pops of deep red add a little something extra and the typography pumpkins give it that unconventional look that I’m always looking for.

Love this unconventional fall porch decor using white, black and deep red with cornstalks and trendy typography pumpkins!

I kept the DIY pallet sign that I made for my porch last year, I loved it so much that I just had to keep it around and I just love white pumpkins so those stayed too :)

Mini Pallet Fall Door Sign

Remember this Mini Pallet Sign I made for spring? Well the moss faded so I tore it off and then gave it a fresh coat of paint and a new graphic and I now have a new fall door sign. I love recycling!

DIY Indian Corn Garland

This DIY  Indian Corn Garland is so easy to make! I just picked up a bunch of deep red Indian Corn and tied them onto a string of jute.

Love this unconventional fall porch decor using white, black and deep red with cornstalks and trendy typography pumpkins!

The deep crimson red add the perfect amount of color to my porch this year. Aren’t they gorgeous?

And my pumpkins. I chose to spray paint my pumpkins white again this year. I really wanted that stark white look that I can’t get with the natural white pumpkins so I painted them and then added vinyl letters to give them a modern vintage typography look that I just love. I chose words that I think of during this season.

    I love the subtle changes you made to your porch this year! The hints of red really brighten it up. This clean, natural palette is a refreshing change from all the go-to autumn colors. Love it! ~M.

    Your Fall porch looks great, love everything you’ve done. The little red indian corn garland is precious. You did an excellent job. Hope little Mr. and family are doing well and enjoying life and the season. Seeing so many white pumpkins getting to really like the look. Maybe next year for me.
    Happy days ahead.

Euro Summer First stop Paris 🇫🇷. It’s been Euro Summer First stop Paris 🇫🇷. It’s been 19 years since I’ve been here and it’s even more magical than I remember! There is something truly special about this city. The architecture, the people, the most amazing pastries, and gorgeous gardens. Showing my family this city was a gift. I experience it in a different way each time and it just keeps getting better.

Comments OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard Comments OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard furniture and decor! Unfortunately, when I get an idea I can’t stop until it’s done 😉. I got an itch to swap out our three chaise lounges for a large U-Shape sectional to create more seating and lounging poolside. I knew there was only one brand who could make this happen… I worked with @polywood to design a sectional that would be a complete custom fit for this little nook. I used the Braxton 6 Seat Sectional and added additional modular seats to get this look. I LOVE how it turned out! They can make anything happen! 

POLYWOOD outdoor furniture is made out of recycled plastics, making it durable in all weather climates. They also have a 20 year warranty.

POV: working with what you have and creating somet POV: working with what you have and creating something completely new! I kept all the original flooring, cabinets, backsplash and fixtures and did only cosmetic updates to update this space. I wanted to add more contrast, character, warmth and texture. By smoothing out the texture of the walls it instantly gave it an updated look, the new paint color added contrast, the wood ceiling added warmth and texture and all the antiques and vintage pieces gave it the charm. 🖤

LAUNDRY ROOM IS DONE ! This was a true example of LAUNDRY ROOM IS DONE ! This was a true example of working with what we have, turning something with great bones into something that is unique, custom and full of character. (Swipe for the before) It now feels like my own little escape to the French countryside every time I do laundry, and I’m not mad about it.
