Summer is finally here! And what better way to unwind after a long day than to veg out on your own porch? Unfortunately, with so many errands and work and kids, most of us forget to take care of our porches. It’s easy to forget about the little room in the back of your home.
Luckily, we stumbled upon an article on House Beautiful with plenty of porch decorating ideas. We know what our summer project will be!
Here are a few of our favorites:
- Paint the furniture of course – Painting furniture makes the biggest difference in the world- and all in a day’s work! If you haven’t already, consider adding a glossy coat of paint to your beloved porch furniture
- Toss old accessories here and there – We often clutter our living rooms (or under our beds!) with old knick-knacks that we don’t really need but can’t bear to part with. Your porch is just another room to add these pieces to, which will create a new take.
- Pillows, pillows, pillows – I adore pillows. My bed is piled high with several throw pillows, a body pillow, sham pillows and of course, pillows to sleep on. What’s stopping you from doing the same with the couch on your porch?
- Switch things up – This is a great redecorating idea because it requires minimum work and- best part- is easy on the wallet. Just rearrange the furniture on the porch and watch how different everything looks. You’ll feel a sense of excitement every time you walk in there!
