Decorative Front Door Ideas

Your front door is the first impression people have of your home. While it doesn’t need to be over-the-top, you also want it to look nice, inviting, and welcoming. If you have faded paint jobs, burnt-out lights, wilted flowers, or don’t know what to do for front door window coverings, these décor ideas could up your curbside appeal.

The amount of space you have leading to your front door will impact what you can do with it. If you have a full porch, you have more options than if you have just a straight walkway. Either way, you can use these front door décor ideas as a starting point to figure out how you want to revamp your front door’s appearance!

Add Plants and Greenery

One of the most obvious and time-tested front door décor ideas is to add wreaths and other greenery. Seasonal wreaths with flowers and greenery in spring and summer, colorful leaves or pinecones in fall, or holly berries in winter are all wonderful choices. Wreaths automatically add a welcoming and fresh air to your door. Other things you can try include:

  • Flowerpots with bushes or small trees, cacti, succulents, or your favorite flowers
  • Hanging baskets
  • A Mini herb garden in a trough

A Fresh Coat of Paint

A fresh coat of paint can do wonders for your front door. It will make it look nice, and a bright color will make your front door pop. It looks wonderful and inviting, whether you’re driving down the road or pulling into the drive.

Include Comfortable seating

If you have the space, adding seating beside your front door can be a fantastic decorative element. Not only does it showcase your personality, but it makes guests feel like they can visit for a while. If you have a full front porch, you might want rocking chairs, a porch swing, or even a full outdoor living area, complete with rugs, tables, and front door window coverings, like drapery, for a cheerful backdrop. Some other options include:

  • Bench
  • Comfy wicker chairs
  • Modern indoor/outdoor chairs
  • Swinging chairs

Dress Up Your Windows

Adding front door window coverings can pull in colors you like that complement the rest of your home. Window coverings also add an element of privacy, which is especially important if you have a large window on your door. Consider:

  • Hunter Douglas Provenance® Woven Wood Shades add a touch of the outdoors in a sophisticated manner, especially in the traditional Roman style.
  • Parkland® Wood Blinds are real, sustainably-harvested wood blinds. The luxurious wood can be stained or painted. They’re durable, so they can withstand your front door opening, closing, and even slamming shut.
  • Designer Roller Shades are perfect for your front door. These minimalist shades come in hundreds of colors, prints, patterns, and textures, so you can easily find something in a style you like.

Upgrade the Lighting

Lighting is often overlooked as a decorative element. Since you need it, take the time to incorporate it into your aesthetic. Select sconces, brackets, or solar lighting that makes your home stand out.
