The porch has long represented family and community, where people visit one another, watch their children play and talk to their neighbors.  It’s also the first thing you see when you arrive home and what better way to be greeted than by a porch that you love.

Here are 5 Updates You Can Easily Make to Your Porch for a quick refresh: 

Seating – Create a space to kick back and relax.  You could install an old fashioned porch swing or maybe a rocking chair or two. Find some seating that represents your personal style. Porch swing | Rocking Chair 

Add Plants – Plants not only add beauty but also create a sense of calm.  Not to mention, it can be a lot of fun to find which plants work best in your area and suit your tastes. Topiary | Button Fern

Welcome Mat – Find one that is pretty enough to welcome guests and tough enough for daily use. “Welcome” | Home Sweet Home

House Numbers – Is it time to update your house numbers? There are plenty of options these day from super modern to vintage – so you are bound to find some that fit your style. Modern | Plaque

Hang a Wreath – Whether you want to celebrate the changing seasons or simply add a touch of personal style, a wreath provides an instant lift to your decor. DIY Magnolia Wreath | Magnolia Wreath | Boxwood Wreath 

Adding thoughtful details and making your porch an extension of your personal style is a great way to add to the living space of your home.  When you create a retreat, even on your porch, you can relax and enjoy the important things in life.

POLY FURNITURE

Poly Lumber comes in an array of classic and bright colors, and new this year are Natural Finishes like Antique Mahogany (pictured) and Driftwood Gray.

The Casual Back Chaise Lounge is a must-have for your pool deck or patio!

The Classic Terrace collection is stylish and modern, with comfortable deep seating. A perfect addition to the backyard for entertaining.

A Poly Bar and Stool set is ideal for serving guests. Not only that, but the bar also makes a great storage solution without taking up too much space on your patio.

The array of colors available in fabrics for cushions and pillows are sure to please the eye. Put together your own combination to suite your style.

Poly Furniture–made from recycled milk jugs–is a durable, comfortable material with some outstanding qualities. The color is throughout the material–rather than paint or coating–and resists fading. This material is virtually maintenance-free and resists cracking, splitting, and bacteria growth. On top of all that, it’s smooth to the touch and looks stunning!

The addition of an arbor across a walkway adds dimension and character. What an inviting way to start a relaxing stroll through the garden!

PERGOLAS

Pergolas offer enough shade to be useful, but more than that, they add character to your backyard setting. With a range of styles and colors, a pergola would fit almost any backyard style.

PAVILIONS

These pavilions are truly stunning in their appearance! With a couple styles to choose from, the perfect backyard pavilion will add a sense of grandeur to your outdoor living space.

GAZEBOS

Gazebos are a classic backyard piece… offering shade and shelter, they seem to call to anyone to come site for a while.

BACKYARD IDEAS

Fire pits are a hot accessory to your Poly Furniture set. Our Donoma Fire Pits come with a round glass wind guard and are powered by propane.

Let’s not forget to mention that any of our Poly Furniture sets or Outdoor Living Structures pair nicely with a Woodtex Backyard Shed!

The all-time favorite backyard seat becomes a lot more efficient… it can be folded!

Another all new product this year is the fire pit. The poly top comes in most of the same colors as the poly furniture, and all fire pits come with a glass wind guard.

So when we say that our Poly Furniture is “Not Your Average Lawn Chair”… I think you know what we mean now. Poly Lumber is a maintenance-free material with smooth feel and fade resistant color. So in a nutshell… you can leave it outside all year round, in the sun, snow, and sand, and it will look stunning year after year after year. Plus, it’s made from recycled milk jugs. So basically… it’s magic. And the ability to transform your backyard or deck works like magic also. Here are some of our favorite collections of Poly Outdoor Furniture:
