Create a Convo Area

If you're blessed with a spacious front porch, pull up a pair of rocking chairs for a snug spot to slow down from the holiday's hustle and bustle and catch up over cocoa. Cozy up chairs with plush pillows and throws but — even on a well-sheltered front porch — be sure to bring any indoor-rated textiles in on rainy days.

Snowy Door Decor

Are you dreaming of a white Christmas? This frosty blue wreath will bring all the hues of winter to your front door — even if there's no snow. The best part? Because the wreath uses wintry tones instead of red and green, it can be displayed until spring's arrival.

Create a Cozy Entryway

Give your front porch (aka the first place guests and neighbors see) a cozy makeover by repurposing items you already have — like using old stockings, filled with greenery, as a wreath stand-in or wrapping empty, leftover shipping boxes in colorful paper.

Decorate With Garland

Draped around front doors or hung from fence posts, fluffy greenery garland is a holiday decorating staple — and nothing beats the look of the real thing. This beautiful (and quick!) DIY swag is made by tying foraged cypress and pine clippings onto an inexpensive faux garland, then decorated with craft-store berries and oversized burlap bows.

Oversized Nutcrackers

Bigger is better when it comes to your Christmas porch look, and these larger-than-life nutcrackers are the perfect DIY addition. A project this large may seem intimidating, but it's actually fairly simple to create. All that's needed are standard craft supplies and materials from the hardware store to make a nutcracker (or two) to colorfully guard your holiday front door.

Incorporate Antiques

Easy to source at estate or garage sales (or your own basement or garage), vintage or antique wood sleds are a beautiful addition to any Christmas display. Bonus: These kids' toys were constructed to be used outdoors so damage from winter weather isn't a concern. Place them, as we have, near the front door and add a DIY evergreen swag made from either (free!) backyard clippings or faux greenery.

Shimmering Lanterns

Get an assist from Mother Nature (or your freezer) to turn plastic cartons filled with water into magical ice lanterns. These shimmering, illuminated orbs are easy to make and will certainly brighten the holiday season.

Keep Fresh Greenery Looking Fresh

When displayed out of direct sunlight, like on a shady front porch, and at temperatures below 60° Fahrenheit, fresh-cut evergreens will last for about two weeks — but you can keep them looking their best even longer by misting the branches with water every few days. And, the cooler the temps, the longer the greenery will last, so if your nighttime temps frequently drop below freezing, your fresh-cut garlands and swags could stay relatively fresh for up to a month.

Perfectly Pink

Create a simply stunning holiday front porch by playing up the color of your home. Here, the homeowner accented the lively pink of the siding with several pink poinsettias placed in the door's festive wreath.

Wood Slice Banner

Cut wood slices are a trendy material you can find at your local craft store or source (for free!) in your own backyard. Add letters to spell out a holiday saying and string together with colorful baker's twine.

Seaside Greetings

A trio of sun-bleached wreaths stacks vertically to create a beachy snowman on this coastal bungalow's front porch. The entry is flanked with potted cypress trees and two sets of glowing silver luminaries. Snow-dusted garland with turquoise, aqua and silver baubles drape across the porch railings to add even more Christmas cheer.

Window Wonderland

A length of greenery garland hung over porch windows creates a beautiful frame for the Christmas tree lights peeking through the panes. This front porch display is made even more festive by the serendipitous addition of fresh, powdery snow.

Go Overboard

If you usually have potted evergreens flanking your front door, designers recommend stepping up natural greenery garlands and plants to make your porchscape even more lavish and green. Here, oversized jingle bells and over-the-top ribbons and bows are incorporated into lush garland and planters to instantly give this front porch holiday spirit.

Create a Fun Color Scheme

Try mixing non-traditional colors into your classic Christmas palette. Here, homeowner Tauni Everett layered dark red garland and a cheery wreath over the pink front door of her South Jordan, Utah home. "[Our door] stands out against the sage siding, calls attention to our cute front porch and, during the holidays, makes decorations look even better,” she says.

Repurpose Empty Shipping Boxes

If, like most of us, you have a recycling bin filled with cardboard shipping boxes, pull out a few to display as pretty porch gifts. Wrap them in leftover gift wrap, then stack by a well-sheltered front door as nearly free holiday decor. If you're concerned about porch pirates, only set the empty boxes out right before holiday guests arrive — or try one of the hilarious pirate-revenge videos online to teach sticky-fingered thieves a lesson.
