Budget Tip of the Day: Spruce Up the Lights
Lighting plays a big role in how warm and inviting your porch looks. This front porch decorating idea is cheaper than you might think. Updating your current lighting can make a huge impact. The cheapest way is with a can of spray paint–the perfect solution for outdated, brassy fixtures. Remove your fixture and tape off the glass. Give it a few coats of paint and reattach to the wall or ceiling. However, a common problem for the front porch is that the light fixtures are often way too small for the scale of the house. Search discount stores online or shop the clearance section of your home improvement store for something with a little more presence. A new fixture can add wonders to your porch and make sure it’s well lit for all to see.
