This post brought to you by Pier 1. All opinions are 100% mine.
Now that it’s spring time I’ve been acutely aware of how awful my front porch looks. Here it is from last fall.
I’ve got the basic bench and some pillows, but it’s just so blah!
I’ve been dreaming of a new porch for months now. I decided to check out Pier 1 for some porch ideas, and I.am.in.love. with that store. They have the cutest stuff ever.
I would love to take my current bench, move it to my backyard, and put this baby on my porch. Isn’t is amazing?
The seating is made out of several Ciudad modular pieces; you can combine the Ciudad Armless Chairs with a few Ciudad Corner Chairs to create any seating combination you can dream of.
Throw a few outdoor toss pillows on for a complete look:
These matching side tables are so versatile. They would look great next to the seating with a few lanterns, or pull one up to you to put your snack or even your laptop on while you lounge or work outside.
As I was browsing and daydreaming about a new porch makeover, I came across a few other accessories that I’m drooling over now.
Check out this adorable Damask Print Doormat. I’m head-over-heels for the colors and the pattern.
Isn’t this Fleur De Lis Oil Burner just stunning?!
I am such a sucker for bright colored outdoor decor like these Rainbow Lantern Sting Lights.
When I was a kid, my neighbor had some Reusable Ice Cubes. My sisters and I thought they were cooler than sliced bread. We’d beg to use them every time we went over there. They are so fun for kids (and grownups!).
Wicker is SO HOT right now. Pier 1 has tons of wicker furniture for your porch. One thing I love about Pier 1 though is that even though the chairs are made for outdoor use, they also will work great inside your home! I’m strongly considering getting a set of these chairs to use in my living room. And at less than $100 a pop they really are quite affordable.
Let’s not forget the iconic Papasan Chairs! These are so fun! I’d love one for my gameroom.
Pier 1 is one of my top go-to stores for affordable beautiful home decor and accessories, especially outdoor spring decor.
Maybe my day-dreaming will become a reality sooner rather than later!
Don’t forget to join in in the fun Pier 1 Pier 1 Tweetups!
I too love Pier one and love to shop there. Danger Will Robinson…DANGER!! Shopping there can be hazardous to your credit card and checkbook!! Ha!

The one thing I immediately noticed you porch missing was railing. In order to get a better feel of what type of railing would be best for you, I would need to have a broader view of the home. Something to think about.
Also, the Pier One outdoor furniture would look great!
Hey, Allison – love Pier 1 too. But I’m gonna use some of their images and paint a few things – a floorcloth, maybe some of my own pillows.
Yeah, call me creative, or maybe just cheap 😉
Love Pier 1… but they are just out of my price range after having 5 children. KWIM?
I know for alot of us the pier1 set is out of our budget… We ended up getting a sectional patio set from walmart.com. We ordered it last year and it still looks fantastic ( even through our yuck winter) ! It is on our front porch and everyone always comments on how great it looks. if you order from walmart.com be sure to have it shipped to the store ( if there is one close enough to you) to save some cash, As it always ships to the store for free!
