Doorscaping: How to style your front door for autumn

Gone are the days where a Christmas wreath was the beginning and end of door decor – autumn doorscaping is here

Seasonal styling for our doors (aka doorscaping) has become a huge trend in recent years, with Instagram leading the way – the #doorsofinstagram hashtag is full of door inspiration and top styling tips for instant kerb appeal.

Here, Blooming Artificial shares some easy and affordable ideas for your own autumn door decorations…

Autumnal topiary – perfect for doorscaping

Switch your wilting summer blooms for an elegant artificial plant.

Made to withstand the difficult British weather, they’ll last throughout the seasons to keep your doorstep looking great for years.

There are plenty of handy artificial shrubs to choose from, so you can have some green boosts to lift your spirits during the colder mornings.

Stick with the season

While the most obvious suggestion for seasonal door decor is crafting your own DIY wreath, there are plenty of ways you can ramp up that kerb appeal.

From show-stopping doorscaping to simple touches such as garlands, fairy lights and a few outdoor pumpkins.

Keeping up with the latest trends requires a little more work, but will definitely enhance your door decoration.

Consider a fresh coat of paint, or replacing the old door knocker with something more modern, like a lion, dragonfly or bumblebee as that will really show off your personality.

Good Homes’ favourite doorscaping looks

1. Decorative display

While the door is left plain and pretty in bright pink, the real action here is in the doorscaping!

With pumpkins, flowers and woven baskets, there is plenty of detail to take inspo from.
