Spring Porch | Decorating My Porch For Spring in a simplistic style
Vložit
- čas přidán 7. 03. 2024
- Join me as I decorate my porch for spring! Just as we like to bring the outdoors in, I also like to bring the indoors out with cozy seating arrangements and items not necessarily meant for the outdoors. I am keeping with the same primitive colonial style that you will see inside my house. My new metal Windsor bench and chairs has made it so easy to do. Then all I had to do was add some , primitive, rustic elements and spring flowers… Thank you for watching! ~ Tammie #springporch #springflowers #simplicity

New viewer here. The porch looks great. I love the furniture and plantings. I think the large birdhouse would look so good elevated on a rustic side table as a focal point.
Thank you so much! So glad to have you here! Oh that is such a great idea. ❤️
I love all the decor and plants Looks great ❤
Thank you! I appreciate that so much!
You did a great job. Wish I had a bigger porch.
Aww thank you so much!!!
Your porch does look pretty and old fashion farmhouse.Shasta daisy’s are white ones, they are the happiest flower! Said in the movie with Meg Ryan!
Thank you so much! … Aww I love that. 😊
Beautiful ❤❤
Thank you so much Lisa!
Your porch looks so inviting. Good finds! I’m about to check out your other videos. Everything looks beautiful ❤️
Be careful using such heavy soil in containers that’s actually made for the landscape. It holds excess water and doesn’t allow for good drainage. If you find that your plants are suffering, check for water sitting around the roots.
Thank you so much! I appreciate that. Thank you for the tip. I will watch for that. I may have to change it out.
Joyce Humphrey In the round larger container, it is dianthus, and they also come perennials, and you ought to look for them they are great.
I definitely will! Thank you!! 😊
I love your front porch floral decor, and especially love your son’s birdhouse.
Thank you so very much!!
New subscriber, everything looks great. Thanks for sharing.
Oh, thank you!!!… So glad to have you here. You’re welcome! It’s a pleasure to share with you all.
Hi! Just came across your channel! Looks like we have some things In common. I love and collect anything old.. antiques, primitive, vintage, Victorian.. all the things😊 The ones in the dish are Dianthus, I always plant some in my planters every year. We actually have some growing out in our yard and they come back every year.. but I know they're annuals🤷♀️ Not sure if they're two different kinds or what, they were here when we moved in the house. The petunias are so pretty, can't remember the names of the others either. My favorite thing to pants in my planters are begonias and coleus'.. ask the different colors & varieties! Also love the potatoe plants. And hang ferns from the top of the porch of course! I love to plant hibiscus and elephant ears in the yard, and Gerber daisies! Lol yeah I love flowers too💐 Just waiting for the weather to get a bit warmer, probably won't plant until mid to late April. Your porch looks beautiful❤ I really enjoyed the video! And of course I subscribed😉😊
Oh this is so awesome to hear! Thank you! I am going to have to plant the Dianthus somewhere that they can come back again next year. 😊 I will have to try planting some begonias and coleus and potato plants. I love hibiscus, but haven’t had good luck with it for some reason. I would love to hang ferns all around my porch, but unfortunately we get sporadic strong winds throughout the summer. Gerber daisies are so pretty and elegant ears make me think of my mom, she always loved them. You’ve given me lots of ideas as we go forward with all of our lawn and gardening this spring. Thank you so much for subscribing! I’m so happy to have you here. ❤️
Well yay.. so glad i was able to give you some ideas😊 lol I just realized that your name was Tammy also, that's so cool!! I live in Southeast Tennessee, and like i said those dianthus were here when we moved in the house so I'm not sure if they're a different kind. I've always added dianthus to my potted plants on my porch but they've never come back. I actually pulled some up out of the yard this year and added to my potted because there was so many and they were growing under other plants. Lol saved me A little money😄 If you plant any in the yard let me know how they do! And if you plant a hibiscus, plant where it gets morning sun and a little shade in the evening or hot party of the day. Another tip.. you can dig the hole and just put the pot in it, cover with mulch.. then when it turns cooler you can take it up and bring it in. Sometimes they will live for several years!
@@tammyleviner3070 That’s awesome!!… Oh that’s such a great idea with the hibiscus!🌺
It all came together so lovely! The Windsor furniture is beautiful!
Thank you! I appreciate that so much! ❤️
Your fur babies are so cute, they have to check everything out! You did a nice job, hope nothing blows away 😂 I love your son's birdhouse!❤️
Thank you! Sylvie and Sophie have to be right in the middle of everything! 😂 Oh this wind!! I’m hoping nothing blows away, too! I have a smaller red birdhouse that he made, as well, when he was little. I’m hoping to get them put back up somewhere after we get more of the landscaping done. ❤️
Love the crock. My largest crock is a #6. It has wire w/wooden handles. It was $50 ,but, the guy gave it to me for $40. A great deal. I live in central WI on 80 acres, so our weather is probably close to yours. Can't wait till I can get to my 8 flower gardens, they all have different themes. I have spent a fortune on flowers, I saved seeds from last yr. plants and will try to start seeds soon. I've never done that before. One thing I love to find old antiques in which to use as flower pots, but, then I have to get more flowers! I put screens over the holes in my birdhouses. Cute porch.
Thank you so much! That was a great deal for your crock! Oh wow! 8 flower gardens! They sound amazing! ❤️
I’m looking for a primitive milking stool. I’m in Iowa, the weather has been unseasonably warm, but yes it’s not time for flowers just yet, at least in Iowa.
I hope you find one! It seems to be unseasonably warm this year about everywhere. Spring will be here before we know it. 😊
Everything looks beautiful
Thank you so very much!!
I love the furniture…. And I think you selected a nice variety of plants. Very welcoming! 🌷
Thank you, Cindy! I appreciate that!
Your porch looks wonderful, Tammie. I can't wait for our Michigan weather to warm up for porch time.
Thank you, friend! Hopefully it will warm up some for you, soon!
I love your birdhouses. I too have a birdhouse my son made when he was 9 and he’ll be 33 this June. It was wasps that took over his birdhouse. Still my favorite birdhouse though.
Thank you!! Aww… so sweet! Hard to believe they’re that old, huh? I have another son about to turn 31. Time goes by so fast… and it seems to be going by faster all the time. 🥴
I thought my cat was in your video for a minute! I was wondering why she'd ever stay here when she has your beautiful home. ☺
Aww… well thank you! Sounds like your kitty is well loved and happy to have a wonderful home with you. ❤️
What a nice buy on the 5-gallon antique crock. Too early here in Ontario Canada to plant I'm envious I can't wait to get my hands dirty. It would be fantastic if TSC had the metal Windsor furniture here. Love how yours looks. Happy gardening
Thank you so much! I had to order the furniture online. Some things TSC only sales online and you have it shipped to the store and then you can just go pick it up. I shared the links for the furniture below the video.
Everything looks beautiful, love that furniture, I have it on my deck !
Thank you so much! That’s awesome! ❤️
I love it!
Oh, thank you so much!
Looks fantastic!!!
Thank you so much! 🤗
Everything is SO beautiful! 💕
I appreciate that so much! Thank you! 💗
I am so ready to do that here but too cool yet. Yours. A,es me want to start. The bird house is precious
Betty Crowe
Aww thank you so much Betty! Hopefully, warmer weather will be headed your way soon. 😊
Everything looks really good 👍
Thank you! I really appreciate that! 😊
Your porch looks amazing. I can hardly wait to set mine up and plant some flowers unfortunately here in New York we have to wait until May . Thanks for the inspiration I can start planning mine you gave me some good ideas !
Thank you so much!! I’m so glad you were able to get some ideas. May will be here before we know it.
Porch is so inviting.love it
Thank you! I appreciate that so much!

African violets only like water from the roots up. Never on the soil also make sure you give them acidic soil and fertilizer... love your home and esthetic...
Oh awesome! Thanks for that information! I will have to correct that… Thank you so much! ❤️
lol I saw that you roughly did the roots on plants and flowers 💐 ❤good job!!! 🥰🐝🌷🤗
I remembered!! 👏🏼👏🏼😁
Good job 👍 🤣😊🌷🌷🌷
Everything looks great 👍 I’m really excited about spring too!!! I just bought an antique galvanized pail to use as a hanging basket for my geraniums this year. I already had one so two will be great for my porch…my daffodils are coming along nicely too.. first sign of spring for me here in western Massachusetts.. we can still get some cold weather here so just looking for a bit longer…they look really nice ❤🌷🪺🪻🪺🐇🦋🐝
Thank you so much! Oh, that’s awesome! I get excited when the daffodils come up. Spring will be just around the corner.
Looks great! Yes, those are dianthus in that planter and they do come back every year. I’ve had mine for years and am in upstate New York so they even survive our long winters. I was just at Tractor Supply and saw the bench and chairs…oh so tempting😂. You did an amazing job and what a great deal for the crock!
Oh thank you! I will have to plant them somewhere else so they can come back next year. Yayy!! 👏🏼 Isn’t it a great little furniture set?! Thank you so much!! 😊
@@ourprairiefarmhouse8987 you’re very welcome, love your channel so much♥️. I thought about getting the furniture but our winters go through the end of April and a snowstorm coming tonight so probably best that I wait as Tractor Supply is just up the street.
@@debbykline Thank you, I appreciate that so much! ❤️
Love your front porch, so pretty, that birdhouse is amazing!! Two suggestions I would add some color by painting the front door and also I always pot my plants in the grass, the spill of soil is good for the grass and you don't have a dirty porch, just a suggestion.
Aww thank you for the tips! I actually have some black hardware to dress up the front door if we ever get to putting it on. Lol…
Add something to the front door as it looks bare. Nice job on front porch.
Thank you! Yes, it does look bare. I have some black metal hardware that we haven’t added to the front door yet. If I had the door knocker I would have added a wreath, but with our winds it would be hard to keep one on the door otherwise. ☺️
Love the front porch. That outdoor furniture is gorgeous. Can I ask where you got it 🤎
Thank you so much! I ordered it through tractor supply. I shared the links for it in the description below the video. ❤️
Your porch is beautiful! I noticed you used garden soil (in ground soil) was there a reason instead of using potting soil? I'm been afraid to use garden soil in my pots. Thought they would dry out to quickly.
Thank you!! 😊 I probably should have used potting mix, but I think of garden soil as more soil plus fertilizer. I’m not very good at following directions. Kind of like when I am baking and the recipe calls for self rising flour and I use all purpose then wonder what happened. 😆 I’ll let you know how it goes! 🪻🌷🌼
me too! I’ve thrown all my ingredients into a bowl and then read the directions, says to mix all dry ingredients first. lol. 😂Oh well most of the time it still turned out fine and edible!
@Cowboysweetheart Yes!! I’ve done that so many times as well! 😂
Joyce Humphrey Think about asking your husband to make you a work table so you don’t have to break your back I do like your choice of plants. Work on getting bigger containers so plants have more room to grow. I was florist for twenty five years I always want to plant early as well but usually, I regret it the longer in greenhouse the bigger the plants are and more Variety to pick from I just get so excited but this year I’m waiting but I can get my plants at cheaper prices so sometimes I have to get them early or somebody else will get to them first.
Oh, thank you so much, Joyce! The work bench is a great idea! I will have to work on getting some bigger containers, for sure! Enjoy spring planting! 🌷
Joyce Humphrey Your violet need soil like African violet soil it is better for them or just give more food for sure to them.
Thank you! I repotted it with potting soil that had a picture of an African Violet on the bag, but it’s still not doing too well. 🥴 I will look for some food for it.
love all your flowers!
I loved growing African Violets! One thing I did learn is they do not like their leaves wet. Hope that helps.
Everything is looking so beautiful! Happy Spring and Happy Easter!✝️
@Cowboysweetheart Thank you so much! That is a very good tip. I’m finding out there’s a lot of do’s and don’ts with the African Violet. ☺️
🪴🌺🌸🌼🪴
Thank you!😊
You not putting flowers on the bench would look great
I will have to add some. 😊
