Decorating the front stoop this fall came together easy with neutral soft colors!
While I was decorating and photographing my front stoop for fall, something kind of funny occurred to me: I’m letting my crazy show a little more than usual.
I tended to notice every car that drove by, every person walking their dog, and every neighbor mowing their lawn. Maybe they didn’t notice me at all, but I assumed that every single one of them was wondering why I was going full-fall in the very wee early days of September. If not, then they had to be wondering why I was taking so many pictures of it. Until now, all of my fall decorating has been safely hidden away inside where nobody can see it…
Yep, letting the crazy show.
Putting It All together!
This fall’s front stoop came together pretty easily. It’s kind of similar to the way I’ve decorated it in years past, but this year I went a little more neutral with the colors.
I normally go with a bright yellow mum because I like the way it accents the blue door. Instead of going with the bright colors though, I went with a simple and neutral white…and I love it!
I am using some kale on the front stoop this year too…I can decorate or make a salad, which is great. 😉
The wire basket with wheels is perfect for the front stoop. I have very little room to decorate on either side of our front door, so getting a piece like this that adds height is perfect!
How are you decorating your stoop or porch for fall? Are you ready to get out there and get started, or would you prefer to not let your crazy show just yet? Ha! 😉
I’m so excited to be participating in a fun blog hop today hosted by Taryn Whiteaker. Make sure to check out all of the wonder fall front stoops and porches today! So much inspiration! 🙂

Love those mums, you’ve chosen! Every year I choose a different color for my porch fall decoration. Mums are lovely at this time of the year, so gentel and bold with their colors at the same time. Thank you for sharing your fall porch it’s such an inspiration 🙂
You are so welcome, Stephanie! I agree with you, I go with a different color every year…this year was neutral white. 😉
Love the cart! But it looks like the one you linked to is much bigger. Or am I seeing things… my stoop is small so I would need a smaller one like your exact one looks like. If it’s different, can you share where you got the smaller one??
I love the cart! The one you linked to looks larger then the one on your porch. Or am I crazy?? My stoop is small so I would need a cart smaller for that reason. Do you have a link for the smaller one?
You are absolutely right, Erin. I try to link to things as close as possible if I can’t source the exact item. Unfortunately, the one I am using is from an antique store. xo
Really like it!
Thank you so much, Paulette! 🙂
Cute set-up April! Love the little cart and the wreath. Great job friend!
Thank you, Ariel! 🙂
Oh my golly, now I’m on the look out for a wire basket with wheels. Love it! Everything looks so welcoming. Seriously beautiful.
Thank you so much, Cindy! xo
Pottery Barn is calling, they want their catalog photos back. Or is it that they want to use those photos for their catalog, as they should? Your front entry looks lovely. Cheers, Ardith
Haha! Thank you so much for your kind words, Ardith! I wish I were making PB Catalog photographer money! 😉
hey girl- love the stoop! I can’t wait to start decorating. I’ll buy a few pumpkins and mums! And put my Fall wreath out!
Oh SO pretty! I adore the plaid blanket with the white pumpkin! Lovely space!
Beautiful, April!! I love how simple but perfectly fall it is. Welcoming and lovely. We don’t have many neighbours around usually, but we have one this year so I was thinking the same thing! They probably wonder…
Beautiful- how welcoming. What color paint is on your front door?
Thank you! It’s called “Blue Dolphin” by Behr. 🙂
What is the paint color on your door?
