Looking for a new way to dress up your porch for fall? Here at The Farm we have a step by step guide to help! Everything you see can be purchased at The Farm, plus you can print out this handy list to make it easier to put together a front porch that will add character to your home.

STEP 1

Straw hay bales! Feel free to use hay bales, but straw hay bales are lighter and can be easier to stack. Starting with 4 bales is a great way to make a solid base for your project. That way, there are varying heights for easy layering that adds interest.

STEP 2

Mums! Mums are the quintessential flower of the fall. Mums from The Farm are handled and cared for perfectly so you have a beautiful plant to put on your doorstep. Plus, the variety of colors that they come in is awesome.

We carry red, yellow, bronze/orange, white, pink/lavender, etc. We also carry a variety of heights including 9” and 12”.

STEP 3

Scarecrow! A scarecrow is one of the most “fall like” pieces of decor around. Adding a friendly scarecrow to your front porch adds texture and color. Also, Mr. Scarecrow can be reused next year.

STEP 4

Edible Greenery! Believe it or not, kale is a great decoration for the garden and front porch. The green color is neutral amongst the oranges and reds. Kale is a great accent, and they come in a variety of sizes for larger porch spaces.

STEP 5

Munchkins! Little pumpkins, aka munchkins, are sweet little orange accents that will brighten up your porch. Use the rule of threes when decorating with small pumpkins/gourds – clumping 3 together looks intentional and complete.

STEP 6

Gourds! The texture and gradient color that gourds supply are vital to a great front porch. Stock up and use them on a mantle and dining table too!

STEP 7

Extras! Here we added jack-o-lantern bells and a cute jack-o-lantern bird house. Both can be put away and reused every fall. They are the perfect piece to keep fall decor moving towards Halloween.

Finished!
