Creative Ways to Decorate your Front Porch


The front porch is the “face” of your house; it is the first thing people see when they visit you, and you want it to be attractive and welcoming.

A flag pole kit from Flags Importer, DIY crafts, and repurposed furniture are just some of the ways you can brighten up the front of your home. Here are some creative ideas for decorating your front porch that will help you make a great impression.

American Flag

Everyone in the USA can show their American pride by hoisting an American Flag on their front porch. Installation is easy with Flags Importer’s flag pole kit.

Bicycle Wheel – Dream Catcher

Repurpose an old bicycle wheel into an oversized, gorgeous, and colorful dream catcher to bring good energy to your front porch. Dream catchers are Native American charms that are said to catch bad spirits, or negative energy from bad dreams, in their web, leaving your home happy and calm.

To build, you will need a bicycle wheel, a lace-type doily, ribbon in different colors, strips of fabric, and white thread. Use the thread to tie the doily to the center of your bicycle wheel spokes, making a circle within a circle. Weave/ tie the ribbon in different colors and patterns around the doily as you like. Next, wrap the tire in strips of fabric. Finally, hang colorful strips of ribbon and fabric from the bottom of your dream catcher. Use another strip of fabric as a loop at the top to hang on your front porch!

International Flag

Embrace your family’s heritage or show loyalty to a cause by putting international flags up on your front porch. Using a flag pole kit, the process couldn’t be simpler.

Stack of Vintage Suitcases

“Incorporate the unexpected” with a stack of vintage suitcases. You can use these in multiple ways. They can be stacked to serve as a coffee table on your front patio, or they can be ‘decorative storage’ for gardening tools or other outdoor items. If you really want to surprise your guests, place a tall stack of vintage suitcases of decreasing size and various shapes right next to your front door, just for decoration. It will be an instant conversation piece.

Advertising Super Flags

Your business has a front porch, too. Have you ever thought about attracting more people with an Advertising Super Flag from Flags Importer? Anybody can install one with the user-friendly flag pole kit, available online.
