A summer-inspired front porch can be a welcoming and a refreshing moment for you and your guests as you embrace the new season. Here are some ideas to get you started just in time for the warm weather.

1. Add plants and some greenery to your front porch by placing potted plants of varying sizes and types on your porch. Choose plants that are well-suited to the summer weather in your area, such as succulents, herbs, or flowers. Faux works too if your front porch doesn’t get any too much light during the day.

2. Hang a wreath made of foliage with a little blooming floral mixed in can add a touch of charm to your front porch. 

3. Include comfortable seating, this one is great because it sets the tone in a way for entering a relaxing and inviting environment. You could use anything from a wood bench or chairs with cushions. This will encourage you to spend more time outdoors and enjoy the summer weather.

4. Use summer-inspired colors by adding pops of muted, yet summery colors to your front porch pillows, rugs, or decor items. I like slate blue, sage green, soft yellow, and mauve pink. These all look great with neutral palettes.

5. Add outdoor lighting to your front porch to create a warm and inviting atmosphere in the evenings. You can use lanterns to add a cozy glow to your space or lighting to help illuminate your driveway/walkway. Hanging lights over landscape or sitting areas is also nice and super dreamy during the summer months.

Remember to keep it simple and not overcrowd your front porch. With these summer-inspired ideas, you can create a beautiful and inviting front porch that you and your guests can enjoy all season long.
