One of my favorite ways to make a porch look pretty is to layer a patterned rug under the doormat. The best part about this trend is that there really aren’t any rules. Feel free to play with sizes and scale here! I especially love the plaid look for the holiday season, but any pattern can work!

Updating your house numbers to a more modern font is another easy way to add a ton of curb appeal to your front entry area!

If you’re up for a bigger project, you can give your house an entirely new look with just a coat of paint. This coral-y pink color is such a bold choice and I’m obsessed with it!

Greenery is always a good look for a front door, but depending on your climate it might not be an option during the winter months (or during the summer months if you live in AZ!). I know it might sound a little funny, but faux plants are AMAZING, you guys! Especially for outdoor spaces. It just takes a little sleuthing to find the right ones. There are only a few types of plants that actually can pass for real (I’ve never seen a fern that looks anywhere close to real, for example). We’ve picked a few good ones for you here below!

  2. This is the most awe inspiring thing I have ever read and feel truly overwhelmed with gratitude not just for your presence at the retreat but also your ability to put into words what it meant to you.
