Decorating Your Porch - What’s In Style
The latest trend in porch decorating is bringing an indoor feeling to your outdoor room. People love to experience the outdoor life but many do not want to give up the comforts of the indoors. With this in mind, there are many products available now to help you achieve this goal.
1. Add a screen porch kit. Screening your porch is a great way to add privacy and protection from the elements. Pesky insects like mosquitos and other flying creatures can take away from any outdoor experience. There are kits you can buy or if you are a do-it-yourself type, you can make your own screen porch kit, customizing it to your specific needs.
2. Choose comfortable porch furniture. Visit a garden decor store or browse decorating magazines to get an idea of the current styles. You can choose furniture that is made from PVC or some of the porch sets made from more expensive materials like wicker or teak. Popular furniture includes gliders of all kinds, porch swings, and a variety of lounge chairs. Don’t forget end tables and sofa tables as well.
3. Select accessories to bring in the outdoors. Lush tropical plants (either silk or real) can really make an impact on your porch decor. Tabletop fountains and garden themed accessories can help bring in an outdoor feeling.
4. Make an impact with color on the walls. Choose a soothing outdoor color to help coordinate your furniture and accessories and provide a perfect background for your tropical foliage.
Have fun decorating your porch and turning it into a space of enjoyment.
