Craft it Up or Shop it Quick Front porch Ideas – You Choose!
Sometimes in life, it sounds like fun to pull out the craft supplies and create some new home decor. The making of it is as fun for us as the finished product. But other times, it’s nice to think of an easy idea to freshen up a space quickly and with as little effort as possible!
The 10 Minute Front Porch Refresh Idea
Let me tell you what I just did for our own front porch. I was tired of walking by our planter with one sad and mostly dead fern, and opening the door with a winter wreath beside a mailbox covered in white spots left from the bugs who are attracted to the porch light. So, I picked up a beautiful spring flower planter at our local grocery store, dug out the dead fern and poured all the dirt into our flower bed, plunked the new planter right into the stand, and TA-DA! Instant refresh in only 5 minutes and under $25! With just 5 more minutes, I had our spring wreath hung (replacing the winter wreath), and the mailbox was wiped off and sparkling again.
