Summer is here and your porch isn’t ready? No worries, take a look at our ideas and tips, and I’m sure you’ll find some cool options for your porch to steal.

Color Schemes

I guess your porch style and decor will follow the style your home and other outdoor spaces are done in but what colors to prefer? A summer space is usually expected to be done in bright shades and of course it’s the most obvious way to decorate it. Greens, reds, pink, yellow, purple and fuchsia touches are sure to make your space vibrant and spirits-raising. Neutrals are another cool color scheme that will give a soothing effect and will never go out of style, besides, you can dot it with splashes of color. As for dark shades, I’d recommend to stay away from them or add just a couple of items for more drama.

Furniture

Choose furniture that fits your spaces in size and height and matches the style that you’ve chosen, of course, and that you love using: loveseats, hanging daybeds, chairs, rockers, upholstered benches, suspended chairs and other items. It can be wooden, wicker or even of metal for a more modern feel. Accessorize the furniture with pillows and blankets that match the color scheme and add some prints with them. A coffee or side table can eb a nice piece it fits.

Decor

The first thing you need to refresh the porch with a summer feel is potted plants and blooms. They will create a mood here and will be a perfect decoration at the same time. Bring some candle lanterns with citronella candles and any decor that matches your style and enjoy staying here!
