Front Porch Updates {Before & After}

This past weekend was beautiful! I spent the whole weekend sprucing up the porch so we could do some serious front porch sittin this Spring!



I am really happy with how it turned out. It is amazing what a little pop of color can do. I found the colorful pillows and rug at Target. The pots were from various nurseries as well as Big Lots & Home Depot. The rest of the items I had around the house. I love re-purposing items from my house, it is like finding new items for zero cost!


The Sisal Pouf (found at Home Goods) was originally in the Hubs office, but it happens to move from room to room a lot. I love how it gives this vignette a little texture. (The kitty is an optional touch as well.)

Me and kitty have really been enjoying some front porch sittin!




So have you been outside getting ready for nicer weather or are you still stuck inside with cold temps and snow!? 

And...you know I couldn't leave you without a couple before and after pictures. Thanks for hanging in there, it has been quite the picture overload today. My apologies! :)

  1. Looks so inviting! Is the tall plant in the yellow planter to the left of the door, papyrus? Looks so different!

    1. Hi Sharon! It is a papyrus. It is called a dwarf king tut grass, but is in the family of papyrus.
