Front porch sitting is something that most people look forward to after a long week of work especially in the spring and summer months. However, to be able to fully enjoy our lemonade and tea we need to make it an inviting gathering space. Porches are not only great for relaxing on a warm summer night, they also are a great way to add tons of curb appeal to your home. So stop under utilizing this overlooked space and get a big bang for your buck! Here a few tips on how to decorate your porch without breaking the bank:
1. Reupholster worn out seat cushions.
If you already have furniture for your front porch, you are miles ahead of the game! Reupholstering old cushions and pillows is a great way to bring life back into your existing furniture. Be sure to choose a durable fabric that is made to withstand the elements & don’t be afraid to add some color or fun pattern! 
2. Roll out a rug.

Rugs can transform any space from bland to beautiful and the same goes for your outdoor space! Again, be sure to choose a rug that is made for the outdoors and can take the heat and rain without falling apart. If you are opting for patterned upholstery, stick with a more neutral and natural rug; If you are taking a more subtle route with your upholstery, choose a more eye catching rug!

3. Add drapes. Putting up some light and airy drapes will give your porch an entirely new feel. It adds a soft yet upscale element to your space and offers relief from the sun.
4. Utilize your front porch to its fullest potential this summer whether you are relaxing on it or drawing potential buyers in with it!
