Decorating a front porch is a great way to establish an inviting and welcoming entrance to your home. Take a look at these amazing front porch decor ideas for spring that will provide you with some inspiration of your own as we venture into warmer weather.
Spring Porch Decorating Ideas
Pops of Color
Create a porch with pops of color against a neutral background. I do not have a source for this inspiring porch, but an easy way to decorate for spring is to find a few bright highlights to pair with neutral coloring. I love the bright coral chair and the mint green door. This color scheme is an especially great idea if you have a small porch because it makes your space seem so much larger.
Rain Boot Theme
There is nothing like rain boots to really emphasize your spring decor. Violet Skiles uses rain boots paired with a variety of fresh flowers as part of her outdoor decor, but you can also use faux flowers to change things up. This is also a nice way to add in a specific focal point that is unique, compared to a traditional pot of spring flowers.
Large Cutout
Looking for something simple, but fun? Instead of a traditional welcome mat, how about a hello sign? I opted to put up a large "hello" cutout on our front porch brick in a bold and beautiful fresh coat of paint. This is the perfect way to go simple, but also draw a lot of attention to the front entry.
And because I didn't have any outdoor furniture, I ended up making the DIY bench too and matching it to the word sign.
Cabinet Overhaul
Try something really creative and turn an old cabinet into an amazing porch planter with a beautiful display of flowers. I love the mixture of modern furniture and natural elements together. This is definitely a unique and fun option for displaying your potted plants.
Plus, don't be afraid to go bold with bright colors like this stunning yellow hue because it is the first thing you notice when coming to this home entry.
Hanging Plant Design
This palette structure is a fun way to display some real plants if you don't want to use up all of your ground space. Elevate your pots of spring flowers with a unique wall design like this one.
White Painted Pergola
If you really want to spruce up your small front porch, try adding a pergola or painting the one you already have. We took our exterior from the natural dark brick to bright white, then painted the front porch to match. The white pops against all the various pots and planters.
Hanging planters and flower pots are a fun way to add curb appeal to your front porch for spring. Plus, these farmhouse style planters look awesome against the white paint. You can see where I got my planters and pots here.
Sign and Vines
Welcome signs are always super cute, but this adorable front porch is extra fun with the oversized welcome sign that is almost as tall as the front door. I also love the faux vines hanging vertical along the door frame that really draw attention to the front entry.
Sitting Nook for Spring Porch Ideas
Use your outdoor areas in whatever way is best for your family. If that is a minimal floral display, great. A table and gathering space? Perfect. This front porch area from Tidbits is light, bright and airy with its cool colors and shelving features for spring plants.
And when that warmer season finally arrives, this sitting nook will make a perfect and quaint space to enjoy the outdoors. Even if your front porch is not overly large, chances are you can fit a small decorative table and chairs or stools for some sitting space.
Tiered Pot Display
There are so many different ways to put together a flower display for the season. Tiered pots are also really appealing because they elongate your space and make it look full. Definitely a fun option to try on your porch! And you can always customize your colors with a can of spray paint.
Flowered Wagon Display
And here is another one of many creative ways to display flowers. Housepitality Designs shows exactly what you can create with this adorable wagon covered with flowers. The watering can and gardening tools definitely complete the space for this time of year.
Tulips Galore
Nothing quite says spring like a lovely bloom of tulips. I love the elegance and simplicity with this gorgeous front door wreath full of tulips and accompanying flower holders. If tulips aren't your thing, any spring wreath will do. Source unknown.
Spring Wreaths
When we built our new home, I added these DIY coffee filter wreaths to my double doors in front. A large wreath is an easy front porch accessory to add and makes a huge difference in curb appeal. Plus, I can change out the spring ribbons when it's time for other seasons or holidays.
Porch Swing
And last of all, I absolutely love front porch ideas that include a porch swing bench. It makes your porch or patio so appealing and usable for the spring and summer months.
I made this DIY porch swing myself, then accented with some spring decor on the wall to hang above it. Add in some throw pillows and outdoor rugs for comfort and you have the perfect nook for relaxing.
I also made this cute vinyl sign for my spring porch. See how to create your own artwork to display below!
