Fall Decorating Ideas for Front Porch

Autumn Has Arrived in Pennsylvania!

The changing of seasons means the return of pumpkin spice, scarecrows, changing leaves, and of course, new product arrivals in our stores. While back-to-school time can get a little hectic, we made sure to brainstorm ways to help you prepare your home for this special time of the year! We’re happy to present some of our favorite Fall decorating tips.

This Autumn decorative concept brings together four Fall porch adornments into one display for your front door, or they can be displayed individually. While unique on their own, piecing them together into one display will have your front porch looking its best this fall!

What Goes Into the Perfect Fall Porch Display?

Mums

Fall’s favorite flowers make up the foliage spotlight of the kit. We have a wide variety of fall mum colors to choose from in our greenhouses that can make your kit unique from the rest. Caring for Fall Mums is fairly easy! Here are some quick tips while caring for your mums this Fall.

• Mums require water when the soil’s top 1-inch begins to dry.
• Make sure to check the soil moisture daily as the best practice.
• Be sure to trim off your mums’ flowers after they wilt to encourage new, beautiful blooms!

Newly arrived pumpkins set the tone for all of those delicious pumpkin-flavored Fall desserts! These also double as easy Halloween decorations for Trick-or-Treat night. Set up a fun activity for the kids and carve an awesome Jack-o-Lantern! Of course, you can always keep it simple and appreciate your pumpkin for all of its natural beauty. The choice is yours!

 

Decorative Corn Shock

What better way to finish out this year’s local corn harvest strong than by accentuating your fall porch with a decorative corn shock? This teepee-esque display of stalk remains bring a farm field feel to your fall porch display. They also add height to the kit, making for a much more appealing bedecking.

 

Straw Bale: An Essential for Autumn

Finally, the centerpiece of the Fall Starter Kit is an Autumn classic, a full bale of straw! This focal point really ties the whole starter kit concept together as it perfectly represents the Fall season. Try resting your pumpkin or mum atop the bale for a more concentrated display. If you get tired raking the leaves one day, you might even use it as a seat for a quick break!

Overall, if you’re looking for an affordable, attractive Fall centerpiece to arrange by your front door, we’ve got the deals to make it happen.
