How to Decorate Skinny Front Porches
- 1). Capitalize on the height of the walls and place tall-growing plants in planter boxes for texture and interest. Choose decorative planters in the same color for a unified look.
- 2). Place a long outdoor runner with a bold pattern or color on the floor to add interest. Paint and seal the porch, as an alternative to rugs, for more a more lasting approach.
- 3). Hang rows of flowering baskets along the front of the porch. Use ferns that grow long and dense or choose a flowering variety of plants to add a punch of color.
- 4). Cover furniture in weather-resistant, bold fabrics to liven up the small area. Place seat cushions on chairs or benches, as an alternative way to make seating more comfortable and decorative.
- 5). Place small end tables made of wicker, rattan or other weather-resistant material and top with decorative elements like candles or potted plants.
