Hi Olga . One of the best Ways to freshen your porch is to add some containers filled with annual plants. This will give you immediate color.
Remove clutter, cobwebs if there are any, and hose down your walls.
Start by cleaning it from top to bottom. I have a wreath on the front door for every season or holiday. A bunch of potted plants, a chair or bench, snack table, lanterns, garden art.
Hi Olga! I repurposed some thrift store furniture to be used on the porch to hold potted plants and to set up a small dining table on our front porch. I sealed them with polycrylic and they've held up well so far.
