It’s finally feeling like spring here in Pennsylvania and that means I need to get my screen porch ready for the spring/summer season! It’s so fun to decorate this space because I can be more eclectic with my choices! I have a design plan in my head and I’ll be sharing it more next week. But, for today, I thought it might be fun to take a look back at my screen porch design through the years! It’s really an eclectic mix!
Let’s begin in 2014 when I went DIY crazy! I made bold cross curtains from drop cloths, a striped rug from a drop cloth, and there was a lot of spray paint and painted furniture too!
Bold Pattern Porch Design
Then in 2015 I went with a cottage style with pale shades of aqua and a peachy pink!

In 2016 I used a lot of fun vintage elements that I found thrifting! This red, white and blue design was perfect for the summertime holidays!
Vintage Patriotic Porch Design
Finally, last year I went a little boho with macrame curtains, lots of plants, and texture!
Boho Porch Design
Now, let’s have some fun! I’d love to hear which is your favorite! So, below, I’ll share a photo from each style numbered 1 – 4. Leave me a comment with the number of your favorite!
1. BOLD PATTERN
2. COTTAGE
3. VINTAGE PATRIOTIC
4. BOHO
Adorable!! Love the vintage finds.
#4 it is ….. although I am totally loving them all !!!! Always enjoy a look back !!
Hi Doreen,
You are so talented! I like them all, but my favorite is #3 The Vintage Patriotic. I’m looking forward to this years porch design. Have a great day!
Thought I was a coastal girl but love #4 Boho
I adore every single porch! You even change out the window treatments! Seriously fabulous.
I love the cottage and vintage, but if forced to choose just one: Vintage. Love the colors!
I’ve always loved # 2. Cottage . Sweet and summery. 🙂
I adore the pops of color in the Vintage Patriotic. That’s my choice!
The long curtains make your porch look so cool and inviting.
#3! But, #2 is a close second!😁
Number 2 because those are my porch colors too and I love them but I do wish for a couple of summer patriot holidays I could make it number 3, just for that weekend!!!
# 3 for me! I love vintage and that sweet little scooter is my fave!!
Brings me back to a simpler day! Thanks!
I want a fun porch to decorate, now!! 🙂
I like all of them but I’m a porch type of girl but the Patriotic is my favorite. I decorate with red white and blue for the summer like I do for Christmas!!
Wow! They are all wonderful. You are gifted with design and detail. I really love #3 and #4 but #3 wins out for me because I love red,white and blue.
Love #3 for all the vintage treasures and the summer feel! Although, #4 is a close second with it’s laid back comfortable vibe! Can’t wait to see this years.
I’m partial to number 3! The bold pops of color, and knowing that the 4th has special meaning here in Lititz – fun and festive!
2. Such relaxing colors
I too love # 3 The Vintage Patriotic! My friend and I said, we both reach for anything “Red”. But the love I have for America and the Blessed Nation we are, I look for an opportunity to share my anything Americana when I can. You have talent and run with it. I like that. That’s a God given talent. I too, have been given God given talent for Decorating/& Floral Design. I’ve done “Show Houses”, Special Events, Window & Store Displays and have had many clients over the years. But what I love most is your love of the Lord. That’s worth a million bucks to me. I am Saved and I love to Serve………………Oh, and I have done the Alter Floral, Wedding pieces for our church for 18 yrs. I’m not bragging, I’m praising the Lord I have a talent to work with Beautiful Things while serving the Lord!
I have to say number 4 is my fave! Love the Americana decor also, though. Have a most blessed weekend!
My choice is Vintage Porch number 3. I always decorate my gazebo for the July 4th holiday with red and white bunting. The kids all come home and we go to a small town parade.
Vintage Patriotic is my vote!
Love #4 but really like the vintage one too, what a hard decision, guess that’s why you ask for help!
I vote for #4 Boho…I find that so relaxing. However, I also loved your bold, DIY design too. You are Very talented and I wish I had such a DIY knack !!
Love, love the cottage look. Those colors…. beautiful and so soothing!
I always love what you do on your porch, and you have a beautiful view too! Lucky lady!
I love #4, but the patriotic one comes in second.
Number 3 is my favorite since I adore RED!
All are so pretty, but #3 vintage is my favorite followed by #2 cottage.
#2 is my favorite, but #4 was nearly beating it. They are all beautiful, Doreen.
I love them all!!
I love #4 they are all so pretty
Number 3 definately!
You did an awesome job with all four! Picking a favorite is difficult, but I believe I’ll have to go with #3 Vintage Patriotic! Can’t wait to see this years!
Love #3 with the patriotic theme and vintage accents- but also #2! It’s always fun to see what you do!
I have enjoyed your posts of your Texas trip! My husband took me a couple years ago, I’d love to go back so we could eat at Magnolia Table! (Jo’s cookbook is on my wishlist!)
Wish we lived closer, I feel like we’re friends!!
Happy Mother’s Day !

I like 2 , peaceful and relaxing , number 4 is my second favorite . Your designs are all wonderful . I hope to get my porch done this weekend .
I really like 2 and 3. I wasn’t sure i would like #4 but when i saw it, I really liked it. You did a really good job with the boho design. It always looks so inviting. You have just the right amount of accessories- not too much and not too little. I am always amazed at how you can create such different looks with the same foundational pieces.
#2 is my favorite. I love the softness. It just looks so relaxing!
#3 is my favorite. I love the scooter!
I like them all but the cottage is my favorite. Look
#2 is my fave…but I think you could easily blend all your favorite items for a final statement.
Hi. Number 2 is my favouite, Cottaage style, soft and relaxing and those are my colours, vintage is right behind it.
I love the cottage number 2. It is light and airy feeling. It feels like a summer room.
It was tough to choose just one! I would love to have a porch like this! Maybe someday!
My favorite would be #3 because my favorite color is red and I also love the buffalo check, plaids, and quilt!!!
I love the colors of vintage but I also loved cottage. Vintage is my favorite.
I like them all but #2 best.
My favorite is number 3.
I like number 3.
Boho is so fun, but I love them all. Dont forget I need your promo pic now.
Loved them all, but the “Vintage Patriot “ is still me favorite!
