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.

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.

My goal was to create a cozy yet elegant space where we can kickback and relax and also entertain. I wanted to keep the neutral tones and use the dark beams as a starting point for the design. Adding comfortable furniture but also a statement chandelier and vintage inspired accents. 

Phase 2: building a custom, built-in media center coming later this year!
