Fall Home Tour 2021: Spooky Autumn Front Porch

The space in my home where I always have the MOST fun decorating for fall is without a doubt, my front porch! Since this is the entry into our home and also visible from the outside to passersby, I always want to go all out! I wanted to create a porch that is fun for the Halloween season, with aspects that are also very traditional fall- it’s the best of both worlds!

I have enjoyed adding these bats to the walls as well as the sticks and crows for the last couple of years, and this year I even added some 3-dimensional hanging bats as well! I also gave a basic fall wreath an upgrade for my front door by adding some craft store Halloween supplies like mini skulls, spiders, and bats as well as dried fall stems! The space is completed with tons of pumpkins and planters filled with mums throughout!
