Thank you to The Home Depot for sponsoringtoday’s post and helping me create our beautiful fall front porch. As always, opinions are 100% my own.
I am so excited to share this latest little project with you! If you have been following my blog over time, you know how I love decorating my front porch for the seasons. Creating a seasonal vignette by our front door is something that I enjoy so much, and this year I have an absolute crush on all of the beautiful fall mums and planters that I found at Home Depot Canada. Fall colours make me so happy and give our porch both a warm and welcoming appearance to visitors.
The main feature of this decor are the pretty fall mums in two sizes and 3 colours.
I love the vibrant pops of colour!
And I mixed in some elements that I already owned such as the ceramic and grapevine pumpkins.
And I also found some lovely new ceramic pots just the right size for the small mums.
And with a little help from glossy black spray paint, I was able to freshen up a watering can and vase.
The watering can made a great container to hold sunflowers.
I filled the black vase with leaves and Chinese lanterns. My husband and I also added a brand new black mailbox and doorbell cover to give our front porch some new life.
We also found this terrific black outdoor fixture that has a motion sensor so that it shines brighter when it detects motion, which is perfect for the dark winter days that are just around the corner.
We also added this outdoor mat in a fun trellis pattern.
The stairs got their own potted mums in brand new chocolate brown pots to complete the fall porch decor.
Now, if only the snow would stay away for another 3 months so we can enjoy our fall porch for as long as possible!

And my friend Shauna over at Satori Design For Living has also decorated the most amazing porch for fall as well, which you can see HERE.
The lovely folks at Home Depot Canada have given Shauna and I two gift cards worth $50 each so that two lucky readers can treat themselves to a fabulous shopping spree at Home Depot Canada so you can decorate for fall too!

I look forward to crisp mornings and evenings, the beautiful colours of the falling leaves and pumpkin everything of course!
I love the crisp fresh air best.
Oh gosh, I love everything about fall. It's my favorite season! I probably look forward to sweaters and cardigans. They are my favorite clothing item to wear and I can't wait to bundle up in them!

In the fall I love to bake and take long walks!
I like the fall weather before the winter weather hits. I like prepping for Christmas too. Not in September but maybe starting in the second half of October:)
I enjoy the cooler evenings and tree colours
I really dislike the summer heat so I love the cooler weather and the crisp Fall days with the wonderful colours!
Crisp cool weather, walking in the crunchy leaves, and homemade soup. Beautiful post!
I love the colors of fall, the crisp morning air, the beautiful sunsets and sunrises.
I look forward to the changing leaves! Victoria Ess
I love the cooler weather and the opportunity to wear jeans with sweaters and scarfs and boots. Squash and pumpkin cooked or baked into anything. Fall is my favorite season and much too short!

I look forward to the leaves changing colours in the fall.
I like wearing scarfs and fashion boots
I look forward to our wonderful family being all together for Thanksgiving in the fall.
With the weather lately I feel like we missed fall. I'm hoping my plants can survive the crazy cold and snow that has been happening. I hope you haven't been hit too hard by it.
Nothing says "fall" like colourful 'mums and your display says it all! I really like the additional touches you've added and those chocolate coloured pots! I feel bad for you Albertans and the snow you've had! Really the calendar still reads "summer" but you've gone right to winter! Hope the snow melts fast and you can enjoy the lovely décor on your front porch!

I look forward to the walking trails that such beautiful colored trees.
I love the colours you have used to decorate. Enjoy the beautiful colour of the leaves during fall and enjoy being part of nature changing seasons.
I love the coloured leaves and the crispness in the air.
Your porch is so pretty! I have had trouble deciding between mum colours and now I think I may go with several shades. Did you get snow this week?
What a beautiful job you did! I love the changing of the leaves in the fall and all the gorgeous colours.
I like decorating in the fall.
I love fall! It's my favourite season. I love the smells, the leaves changing colour, Thanksgiving, etc. I could go on on!:)
