Why save your autumn decorations for the inside of the house? Your front door and entrance way are the first impression any guests get of your home. Give them a warm autumnal welcome with beautiful seasonal decorations, both on your porch and inside the hallway.<\/p>\n

So how can you decorate your front porch for the autumn months? We\u2019ve put together some fantastic ideas for decorating the outside of your house as well as your hallway.<\/p>\n

First impressions<\/h2>\n

Nobody wants a cluttered home, and the same goes for the front of the house. Keep your autumnal design limited to a beautiful wreath on the front door using warm and earthy colours. Channel the harvest season by incorporating autumnal leaves, pine cones, berries, and other harvest features. If you\u2019re looking for a wreath to last you until Christmas, weave in some wintery shades to transcend the shift in season.<\/p>\n

Style with pumpkins<\/h2>\n

Not just for Halloween, pumpkins and gourds in different colours and shapes look great for the whole season. Choose varying colours and layer them on your outside steps, or place a couple by the door. You could also bring them indoors and assemble them around your hallway furniture, alongside autumn leaf decor and beautiful seasonal lighting.<\/p>\n

Bring the outside in<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Embrace the outdoors, and incorporate plants into your autumn styling. Rustic dried florals have been stealing the interior design show this year, whether used as part of a garland, or simply in a vase.<\/p>\n

Add warmth with a runner<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Whether your floor is carpeted or hardwood, add a runner to keep your home\u2019s entrance warm underfoot for both you and your guests. Aim to match it to the length and shape of your hallway, and choose complementary colours. Grey tones are often a popular choice, both for style and practicality, as you\u2019ll want a colour to withstand muddy footprints.<\/p>\n

Autumn lighting<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As the days get shorter, lighting becomes an essential part of your styling process. Add lamps<\/a> into your hallway for a warm and ambient welcome, with scented candles creating even nicer first impression. And, don\u2019t forget about the outside. Wrap your home in charming string bulb lighting, or guide your guests to your door with low pathway lighting for the perfect warm autumnal look.<\/p>\n

Prepare your home for autumn weather<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s not all about getting the decor down to a tee, you also need to get your home ready for the muddier winter months. Get practical with doormats and welly racks, but remember you don\u2019t need to lose out on style with function. Go for metal racks that stand the test of time and are easily cleaned, and choose a doormat that blends in seamlessly with your hallway decor.<\/p>\n
