Summer Front Porch Ideas & Endless Summer Hydrangeas

Sharing some Summer Front porch ideas: beautiful potted hydrangeas, outdoor pillows, front door decor and everything you will need to spruce up your front porch this summer!

Woot woot!!! Summer is here! I have been working so hard on our front porch and backyard so I’m excited to share the progress that we have made so far. Even though I still have some landscaping to do, it’s looking so much better than what we started with.

Also, I might not finish these projects anytime soon, so I might as well share the journey with you.

For the entryway, I used two topiaries (I found them at my local Walmart). I love the look of topiaries for the elegance that they bring to any space. They are a classic look for sure.

The front door wreath is a Homegoods find. It’s a gorgeous peony wreath that I use all spring and summer long. Sometimes I move it inside and place it on range hood.

The front door rug is from Frontgate. The monogrammed rug is another classic look that I like. It looks great with the toyaries!

The front door is painted Benjamin Moore “Palladian Blue” .

Summer Front Porch Ideas

This is my first summer front porch! I went with the classic blue and white combo with touches of pink here and there.

I kept the furniture white to brighten up the front porch a little since our house is this weird green/beige color. Blue and white outdoor floral pillows make the front porch look so inviting.

Endless Summer Potted Hydrangeas

My initial plan for the front yard was to have a mix of boxwood and hydrangeas.

After some thought I decided to not use the hydrangeas here because they can get quite large. Instead I’m doing boxwood and white roses bushes which we can keep more under control

I still wanted hydrangeas and when I saw these pink Endless Summer hydrangeas I couldn’t resist! The planters are another Homegoods find, they were only $25 bucks!

Later, we will probably move the hydrangeas to the other side of the house where we have a window and use the planters for seasonal flowers!

Front Porch Seating

Initially I bought this outdoor bench for the front porch. However, we love to hang out here in the afternoons that I quickly realized I needed more seating.

My husband really wanted rocking chairs, so we got two of them. Now is feeling a little crowded.

I moved the bench to the end of the patio (which also keep my girls a little more contained). Eventually I plan to replace this bench with a porch swing?

I think the girls would really enjoy a swing here! We spend a lot of time here on summer. Every night after dinner the girls have desert in the patio while I water the plants. It really is a cozy place we love to hang out at!
