Fall Porch Inspiration
Hello friends! Today I am inviting you to take a walk with me down memory lane for some Fall porch inspiration. I say memory lane because I am sharing how I have decorated my outdoor spaces here on the blog over the past four years. So get ready because I’m sharing all of my tips and tricks for creating a cozy and collected Fall porch in one post!
I am also joining the World Of October’s blog hop hosted by Cecilia of My Thrift Store Addiction. If you are stopping over from Stacy of Bricks ‘N Blooms welcome! Did you fall in love with her garden and Fall decor like I did? Hopefully I can inspire you with a few of my own spaces.
Fall Porch Inspiration
How To Add Vintage Decor To Your Fall Porch Welcome to our cozy Colorado home! Let’s start with last year’s front porch. I had so much fun using traditional Fall colors with pops of black. My inspiration came from this 1950’s imitation Hudson Bay blanket that was my grandmother’s.
I went a bit mum and pumpkin crazy but I wouldn’t change a thing. I had fun adding vintage touches last year and shared tips for adding vintage pieces to your porch.
It might have been my most favorite porch of all the time we have lived here! I think it has to do with the fact that several of the pieces hold family memories. Visit last year’s vintage Fall porch here!
Cozy Sweaters For Your Mums
Looking for a fun Fall DIY? I was feeling a bit crafty last year and used an old sweater to create these darling easy no sew sweater flower pot covers. Maybe a bit silly but they added the perfect amount of texture to our entry and hid the ugly mum containers!
A Backyard Haven
A few years ago I was blessed to work with JOANN on creating the perfect Fall backyard haven! I shared how to decorate with lights and lanterns in your outdoor space. It was a magical outcome and one that I hope to recreate this year!
Sadly we had an awful hail storm that destroyed our string lights last summer. I recently bought some more and plan to hang them up as soon as I have time. Since this post we have moved our firepit over a bit to accommodate our new hot tub. SO the string lights might look a bit different but the ambiance will be the same! Magical!
Decorating For Halloween
I’ll be honest I never really decorated for Halloween much before I had the blog. It just wasn’t a priority. But now that the kids are older they are loving helping me decorate for this spooky holiday. ANd I have to admit, it’s actually quite fun! I shared several ideas for how to decorate your porch for Halloween that you might enjoy!
Don’t worry I didn’t get too gory! But I did just end up buying an awesome new skeleton from Walmart to take the place of Mr. Bones who sadly fell apart last year. Oh and the girls picked out a huge gross spider too!
A Blue And Green Fall Porch
I’m sure it doesn’t surprise you that I decorated our fall porch a few years ago using mostly blues. If you just saw my Fall Home Tour then you know it was all blues and greens. They are my two favorite colors and of course it spilled out to Ms. Fanny!
Have you noticed that mums and pumpkins always make an appearance? They are a must when it comes to Fall porch decorating! This leads me to another view of our porch decorated for Fall!
Do You Have These On Your Porch?
The 5 Fall must haves for your Fall porch was a fun post! I used a lot of the same colors as I did this year! This was my first ever Fall porch I shared here on the blog and I still love it!
Can you guess what my 5 things were? You better believe pumpkins were on that list! Here in Colorado our Trader Joes tends to get the best pumpkins before anywhere else even gets any pumpkins. Each year I stop by and I’m never disappointed!
The long green Fall centerpiece you see was one of my first ever Fall DIYs here on the blog. I even made a YouTube video of me creating it. It was a lot of work, and since I blog just part, time I decided that making videos wasn’t my thing! ha! You can check that video out here!
Our Current Fall Porch
Surprise we painted our house Hale Navy this past summer! So this year’s porch has a hole new look and feel! What do you think? Come stop by and see more of our pink and purple Fall porch!
Thanks for stopping by and walking down memory lane with me for some Fall porch inspiration! I’m curious…leave me a comment below with which Fall porch of mine was your favorite! Next up on the World Of Octobers blog hop is At Home With Jemma. Her porch is dreamy!
Then make sure to visit my friends listed below over on their blogs. I promise you will be inspired!
XOXO,
Kelly
Did you like this post? PIN it for later!
Kelly, your home and how it’s decorated is fabulous. I love your style! It was interesting to see your subtle changes from year to year (okay, so maybe Hale Navy was HUGE, but still….!) and how well done they each are! I’m like you, never big on decorating for Halloween, but blogging has certainly inspired the past couple of years anyway. I love your blues and greens, and speaking of the latter, that green looped throw looks like a blanket of boxwood! Oh my, I adore that! Happy Fall, Kelly, and it’s been a real pleasure to be in your company on this mini tour of regions.
It’s gorgeous Kelly! I love how you have everything decorated for fall! xoxo
Kelly, you always style the prettiest porches with your charming pew! I love your cozy textures and colorful blooms! Thanks for joining us! Pinned and I’ll be sharing on IG today too. Blessings, Cecilia @My Thrift Store Addiction
So many beautiful ideas! I loved your trip down memory lane. You’ve decorated your outdoor areas in so many inspiring ways over the years. There’s no way I could choose a favorite! Great hopping with you again and thanks for all the ideas!
Shelley
So much fun to look at all the ways you made your porch feel special and festive throughout the years, Kelly! I love all the ways you used pumpkins and mums and how you layered all those cozy blankets too. It’s all really beautiful and feels so warm and inviting. Hugs, CoCo
Kelly! I was so excited to hop over to your blog post today!! And I was right to be! You never disappoint! I loved taking a trip down memory lane with you and your fall front porches! I love how you’ve transitioned the Fall Front Porch over the years and sometimes you even circles back around and did similar things. BUT YOUR BACK YARD!!!! Girl!! That looks magical!! You have done such a wonderful job creating cozy and inviting spaces! XoXo Aliya
Well ALiya you just made my day! Thank you for your encouragement …I wish I could have you over to the backyard for some warm tea or cocoa. I need to get my light back up . It was such a special feeling! Happy Fall friend!
Kelly you know I love your outdoor space. You have inch so pretty and fall ready
I don’t decorate for Halloween just fall and harvest.
Cindy
Yes Cindy you are always so kind to me. Thank you for your kind words my friend!
Kelly, I loved seeing your different porch looks over the years. How fun. I don’t usually decorate for Halloween either, but after seeing your spooky porch, I may need to start. I think it is one of my favorites. And your dreamy backyard patio space is absolutely gorgeous too!
Thank you Jen! Isn’t i funny how that happens? I bet your girls would love it if you added Halloween touches! Loved your porch by the way!
I love how you style everything, Kelly:) Your porch is always a favorite place to see with that amazing pew and your other vintage finds. I love the metal green planter with the little white pumpkins and the kale by the pew pic the best! Always fun hopping with you!
Thank you Lora! I loved that porch too… I think I need some more kale in my life again real soon. Thanks for hopping on by!
Good Afternoon Kelly!
This was a fun look back through the years at all of the pretty styles you have used to bring Fall into your outdoor spaces. I love your creativity and how you tucked those sweet mums into cozy no-sew sweaters. I am definitely going to be giving this a whirl.
Your darling exuberance for all things home and fun is refreshing!
Great to share in this mini hop with you!
Jemma
Than you so much Jemma! I am so happy you stopped by. Cute sweaters for Fall are always a good idea, right?! Thank you!

I love everything you’ve done with your fall porch Kelly! There is so much inspiration here!
Thank you so much Kim!
