I got into a discussion with my older sister who used to live in this house, (our childhood home we recently purchased,) that your doors should stay a neutral “safe” color so you can go crazy with colorful accents. I asked her why not have both? I put my space together like my coral doors were still yellow, (still not neutral but they coordinated with autumn time well!,) and whaddya know? I like it! You can also scroll down to see 13 other fall porches from other home decor bloggers whose doors may not be as bright as mine. 😉
Instead of going overboard or crazy with too much decor, I kept it simple and added pumpkins. A lot of pumpkins!
To start, I made these DIY Pumpkin Embroidery Hoop Wreaths that subtly inform guests that it’s fall time.
I have a pretty vast collection of faux pumpkins… white, orange, wooden, plastic, small, large, teeny, bright, neutral, etc. I decided to pair them all together and see what it looked like! Here’s one look on my outdoor table:
And here’s the other:
I love to make coordinating piles and tend to decorate in the 3’s so you can see the above picture is really 4 coordinates pairing instead of a mis-mash of pumpkins! (Which would have been okay with me, too!)
I think my handmade sign pulls the oranges/creams/yellows together and I love how it POPS against the pink! I’ll eventually add some mums into the mix when they come in season but for now, I think I won the argument that you CAN have bright doors and still make holiday decor work! 😉

THIS is my kind of front porch decor! I love the door colour btw, and all the fall touches are great. Super cute!
Thank you, Ariel! So glad you like the fun colors 😀
Ack those hoop wreaths!!!! Amazing. I love all the pumpkin colors with your doors, you gals are so fun.
Love those bright happy colors. And the wreaths on the doors, the table (totally wish I had one), even the sign hanging on the brick! Your fab porch is so spacious and I’m so jealous! I have a tiny porchette… if I can even call it that. ugh

Thank you so much, Norma! xoxo
Your porch space is perfect! I love the simplicity of it…especially your outdoor vignette – what a great idea!
I love it! I’m a huge fan of that door colour! And jealous of the double doors – how fun to decorate two doors instead of one. Fabulous simple wreaths, as well!!
Ack…2 is a challenge sometimes but I do love how easy it is to move furniture in and out, lol! Thanks, Krista!
I love the color of the doors! Your decor looks great!
Thanks, Crystal!
love it , great ideas love those wooden pumpkins I may have to find something like that myself. The door seems welcoming as well as perfect color for fall

Absolutely stunning!! And though you said “coral,” they appear to be the exact colour of my new kitchen walls. I handed my Painter Lady a Sweet-n-Low packet and she got it exactly right.
And I DO have that last can of paint . . .

Bah hahahah LOVE it!! So fun that you gave them the sweetner packet, lol!!! Our kinda gal!
I love your front doors! Perfection. Sometimes, we are (okay, I am) afraid to take those style risks for fear of making a mistake. But sometimes, when I do, something wonderful can happen. This truly inspired me! Thanks 🙂
You have such a gorgeous large welcoming front porch. I enjoy seeing what you do with it for each season. It must be very fun to put together.
I’m in love with the color you painted your front door Kelli. It’s so calm and inviting and makes the perfect backdrop for any kind of decor. Just lovely
