This is the first season I’ve done much with our porch, since we didn’t love the exterior before we had it painted this summer (full exterior reveal coming very soon!). But now that we have the white house of our dreams, I was excited to deck out our front porch for the season. I headed to my favorite place for affordable home decor, Walmart, and chose a few key pieces that really dressed it up for autumn. Thank you to Walmart for sponsoring this post, as always all opinions are my own.
I think my favorite element are these great arched metal lanterns. They make such a statement but are only $16 each! I believe they are in-store only but I bought mine online and picked up in store which was super easy and saved me trying to hunt them down. (If you haven’t tried Walmart’s in-store pick up yet, try it! It’s so seamless and high-tech. Your items are delivered out of a giant tour when you scan your phone – pretty amazing!)
I also really loved how they tie into the black of our new porch lantern for a pop against the white.
I also added tons of neutral pumpkins. My favorites are always the muted pastels and of course the whites. Can you tell which ones are the faux pumpkins? I love mixing real and faux for even more impact. Walmart has a really good selection of pale faux pumpkins right now.
Every year I like to pick up some white mums, and this year I put them in this gorgeous white planter with great texture. It’s such a nice size, especially for the price!
On our outdoor wicker chairs I added these great plaid pillows,
which are reversible to gingham on the other side (and only $12!). I
love using plaid this time of year. Behind the chairs I hung one of my
favorite pieces, this gorgeous gold metal wheat wreath. It’s so affordable and such a nice large size!
Stacking pumpkins has always been one of my favorite tricks during the fall. Here I placed a stack on the steps but they also make a statement in an urn.
After saving for a few years to paint our exterior and then having it be a bigger/bumpier project than we intended this summer it felt so good to get to enjoy our home’s exterior and make it special for the season. I hope I could inspire you to do the same at your home!
It’s Prime Day, friends! Yes, I know Prime Day has tons of hype around it, but there really are some great deals to be had. And especially if you’ve been waiting to make a bigger purchase like a Frame TV or (my favorite-ever Prime Day purchase) a new vacuum, this is the time to buy….
100 home decor finds to refresh your home for spring! As the warmer months gently move in, it’s the perfect time to bring in fresh touches to our homes.

It’s here! The first gift guide of the season! This is seriously one of my favorite things to do every year – round up some special and unique goodies to help you in your holiday gifting. The kids guides have really become my favorite, and I know just how special it is to make magic…
One of my favorite things to do is throw very special birthday parties for my kids. As Lexie has gotten older she of course has more of an opinion on the themes of her party. So while I might not have chosen it, her five year old heart just wanted an Anna and Elsa Frozen…
Crib | Glider | Quilt | Rug (similar) | Mobile (similar) I can’t believe the nursery is finally done! I am due tomorrow, October 18, and everything is finally ready! I had so much fun putting this space together. I have known even before we were planning to have kids exactly what I would do…
We have a funny little spot in our hearth room, just off the kitchen that we use as a breakfast nook. I’m not even sure it was meant to be that, but it works very well since it’s so close to the kitchen. It has a great built in with shelves and deep cabinets for…
