Swing into Porch Season with These Style Ideas

Text by Katie Ellis

Nothing says country living quite like a pitcher of fresh lemonade on a welcoming front porch. Make the most of your outdoor living space by creating a room before you even open the front door.

Here, billowing white curtains, stained-glass artwork, layered rugs, and a seating area filled with comfortable pillows make this sunny porch feel like a living room. Complete the space with potted flowers and vintage finds, like a glass bottle collection.

Gather your favorite country finds—like patinated potting vessels and watering cans—to create memorable vignettes both inside and out.

Style up your porch with beautifully chipped items, like a coffee table or mantel piece, and then layer with warm, inviting textures.

Collections such as the terra-cotta pots seen here can exude timeless country style whether used as planters, layered on a bookshelf, or stacked in a wire basket.
