How I Decorated My Porch



Fake cactus and wooden tray from Big Lots
These colors were the jumping off point for my porch this year. I always start with a color in mind and something that I like whether it is a picture, bowl, flower, etc and go from there. This year it was this cactus. I carried these same colors around the porch and tied them all in with my pineapple pillows from Home Goods. The sparkle rhinestones in the pillow tie in well with the gold fire glass on the fire pit! The wine glass is from the Dollar General and I filled it with Peach Moscato! Doesn’t it pair well with my decor 🙂







Nighttime on the side porch
Citronella candles burning (from Walmart), fire pit on (from Lowe’s), and curtains about to be drawn!

Jake relaxing by the patio!
This is Jake’s normal. He loves to lay on the patio and watch everything that is going one. While Maggie runs like a bullet around the yard, Jake enjoys his relaxation time :-).
