There’s something so satisfying about decorating the porch for Thanksgiving, creating the perfect “welcome” for your guests. Below, we break down four fall-ready ways to kick your curb appeal game up a notch.
When in Doubt, Go for Pumpkins It’s not autumn until the pumpkins are on display. Place a few – or several – around your doorstep for a welcoming vibe. Stick with orange for a traditional feeling, or opt for white and green versions to create a cool, modern look.
Display the Right Wreath The no-fail way to radiate fall vibes: a warm-hued wreath, complete with leaves, berries, and pinecones. Or, if you’re more into a subtle look, try a neutral approach with a sophisticated, uniform color scheme.
Fill Decorative Urns Those spring planters you thought you’d put away? Keep ’em out and pack them with a bounty of gourds, multicolored mini pumpkins, and autumn flowers (like mums).
Light the Way with Lanterns Take advantage of shorter days with an array of glowing (and functional!) lanterns leading up to your doorstep. While lightbulbs work just fine, candlelight creates a cozy atmosphere.
