Boho Porch Swings Reveal: Small Front Porch Decorating Ideas

A small front porch gets a modern makeover with boho macrame swings. This budget-friendly transformation is relaxing and beautiful!

Happy almost Summer!

I’ve always loved swings…I would even put them inside if I had the chance. Today I’m excited to show you my new Boho porch swings!

Modern Front Porch Decorating Ideas…

I actually put together about twelve different outdoor rug and pillow combinations because I’m a little crazy like that. In the end, the blacks and whites and aquas won out.

I wanted to tread lightly with this design, since the exterior of our house has craftsman features, including the pillars on the front porch.

Font porches aren’t a big deal here in Seattle like they are in some parts of the country. That’s not to say we don’t drool over gorgeous wrap-around porches.

But most houses aren’t built with a lot of extra space for a seating area. We tend to have our outdoor living spaces in the back yard.

But I think front porches are going to take on a whole new significance in the Summer of Social Distancing. I’m loving that I can have a friend over and provide hospitality and a nice spot to chat, without anyone having to come into the house.

I would have hung the macrame swings six feet apart… but there wasn’t enough room on our small porch. And I suppose swinging would be less than relaxing if you keep whacking into pillars.

I’ve been eyeing these round macrame swing chairs for a few years now… they just speak to me! And the price was speaking to me too… $65 is hard to beat!

I was honestly thinking these porch swings would be mostly for show and not that comfortable… but I was seriously wrong! They are AMAZING! And everyone who’s sat in them agrees!
