Thanks so much for being a part my channel. 🌿

[@paulac875]

What I like most are the door wreath and the mailbox sign with the leaves coming out. I love the music in this video, so soothing and relaxing.

[@LaurenNicholsen]

Thank you 💕❤️

[@Bes8406]

It's inspiring to see you clean, keep your lanterns black, just add color inside w your candles as seasons change.

[@megankrantz9658]

I actually held onto my mum's last fall and they looked dead until spring when they put out new growth. I trimmed all of the dead limbs and they bushed out and bloomed nicely all summer.

[@LaurenNicholsen]

Did you keep them in the pot or plant them?

[@megankrantz9658]

@@LaurenNicholsen I kept them in the pots they came in

[@danniellebrizendine6537]

I spend so much money every year on mums, corn stalk, and pumpkins. This year I recently purchased a Victorian mansion. So you’ve definitely given me inspiration for decorating. ❤️

[@theirishcailin333]

Bit late replying but wow, I bet its amazing!! So much character in older homes. We built our home and there's no way we would have been allowed to build something like Lauren's house (I'm in Ireland). You can get planning for a modern box no problem but ask for something more traditional and it's so hard

[@kathyciccone463]

Front door wreath is my favorite. Beautiful.

[@LaurenNicholsen]

Thank you! It is my favorite too!!! 😊

[@holleydowns9385]

I just love mums and I use them not only on my porch but in my sunroom, toooooooo!

[@InspiredLivingwithKristi]

This is gorgeous, Lauren! What a treat for your kids.They will have amazing memories of how you made each season special. Your steps are beautiful and it’s awesome that your husband and dad built them. We have a lot of haze in Bakersfield, but so far not much ash. It was so satisfying to watch you clean. Tfs your beautiful home and decor with us! 🍁❤️🍂

[@LaurenNicholsen]

Thank you so much for being here!!!

[@twilastout1670]

My mums can be divided and planted and some will survive the frosts and come back to bloom again. Central Valley, Merced CA. Thanks for the porch inspiration.

[@nancyhoskins197]

Out of calamity comes a clean opportunity for creativity! I don’t use mums as they not only require lots of water, but deadheading often. I use lantana, zinnias & other colorful plants such as ornamental cabbages. Some transition to Christmas.Note: Spray paint lanterns black again, continuity with rockers and urns. Spray your urns also to freshen them. Maybe votives along the porch side wall, too, would be interesting for your evenings on the porch.

[@LaurenNicholsen]

Ohh I love the idea of votives! I hope to spray paint the lanterns tomorrow BUT it has been super windy.

[@nancyhoskins197]

Go with your instincts, Lauren.You have a real eye for scale, balance, &textures, all of which is necessary to make color pleasing. I applaud your ability to pull a scene and theme together, ie., an apple harvest. Apple pie served for dessert would be delicious!

[@laurasimpson7211]

Awwww your little girl saying you look like Cinderell, so sweet! 💕

[@johannabennetts64]

This really inspired me. My husband usually does all the outside stuff, but I decided it was time for me to get my hands dirty, too. It felt so good to scrub the summer scuz off the porch and wash the windows and door! My decor is very simple, but it still feels like a fresh start! Thank you!

[@MariaRomero-qc1hn]

Very bad ashes people have lost homes & all their belongings, your Video was great , the wreath on the door is so beautiful all the decor is adorable thanks for sharing

[@LaurenNicholsen]

It has been so sad and awful 💕 praying we all recover

[@joanshute3384]

Hi Lauren! WOW how Gorgeous is your Porch for Fall . You are a Fantastic decorator. I l I Love, Love, Love your bench with the apples on and those bales of hay under neath. Yes I do clean my porch of before I decorate it. Your FRONT porch is so Festive for Fall. I Love, Love, Love your front Steps oh if only I had steps like that what I could do. I also have two rockers on my porch and I just Love to sit out there with my Husband. Thank you for sharing. So until next time God Bless you and your family and have a Blessed day and Stay Safe my Friend. 🌻🍁🎃🎃🌻🍁

I live how you decorate for the seasons. I also love to decorate, and I will definitely get ideas from you. I live in Florida and I have to hose down my front porch at least every other week. It is very dusty/sandy here. I love your mums. I always decorate my front porch for fall with mums and pumpkins. It adds a pop of beautiful color!

[@kellyr.vanderford2258]

Great job. Looks so cozy, warm, and welcoming.

[@jeanieturner875]

I clean the front porch seasonally and the screened porch every week. I run the sweeper on it. It is so sad to think the ash is coming from peoples homes. My heart goes out to them.

[@LaurenNicholsen]

💕❤️

[@daynawestmoreland2867]

I just love your style. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@MelissaFreeman]

You asked what we use to clean the porch and I am just now having a porch built after being here for 6 years of having this house and I could not be more excited!!! You’re right, an inviting porch is just the best 🤗

[@willothewispl]

Lots of pretty flowers and pumpkins. Welcoming.

[@gracebeattie3815]

Love the blacck rockers and pillows and throws and little table . Good job

[@laurasimpson7211]

I love the bench on the porch! I need one for mine! So cute!

[@MakaylaMartinez]

I’m in Northern CA too and it’s just terrible! I’ve had to go clean off my decor daily it’s so sad to think about all the devastation. Definitely giving it a good pressure wash before I decorate for Halloween! Love how everything came out it’s so cozy! ✨

[@LaurenNicholsen]

I totally agree! Thank you so much for sharing Makayla!

[@veronicadelgado9712]

I too live in California and we had fires nearby. We too were bathed by a thick layer of ashes. I power washed my front and back porch as well as all exterior windows. Once again we have lots of smoke this week but I haven’t seen rain ashes like last time.

[@LaurenNicholsen]

Its been unreal this year.. I pray that the worst is behind us! My heart breaks for our state.

[@carolcombs4883]

Hi Lauren! We have a wrap around porch Lshaped. We power wash it every spring, house, floor, and ceiling. And also all of our furniture. Since we live in IN. we put all of our furniture away before it gets super cold. I do decorate with mums for fall in my large pots! Instead of sweeping my porch with a broom, I use the blower a couple times a week as needed. We have alot of furniture; rockers, swing, couch, chairs, coffee table. On the side of the porch is my dining area with table (we made), 8 chairs, hutch (we made) and old porcelin stove! Our porch is our Happy Place! Thank you for your fall decorating videos...Love all your decor!

[@LaurenNicholsen]

My husband uses a blower all the time up here (unless I have my decor up) and it’s great! Wish I could see your porch - it’s sound amazing!

[@nancygold2928]

Everything is so pretty, I just love it. I like the cascading pumpkins 🎃 area, very nice. I also like the apple 🍎 decor.

[@sylviashanabrough6515]

You are such an energetic cleaner. When I want to clean I watch a couple of your cleaning videos and it inspires me to get cleaning.

Im from Pennsylvania and it gets below zero and I’ve plant mums in my yard. Mums are perennials and they handle our harsh winter. One thing is they grow bigger every year to the point that they hog up the flower beds. Everything looks so beautiful and you did a wonderful job.

Lovely to see Teddy ❤

[@nagrabagra4924]

My porch faces west. It's an old house built by my grandfather. He was no architect LOL! But he was practical. If the wind is blowing, it blows onto that poor old porch...leaves, rain, snow...you name it. It really needs to be cleaned every season if it's been a windy year. 2016 - 2018 were just awful for us. It was windy all year, each of those years, and I'm not exaggerating. Any seasonal decor that I put on our porch those years ended up somewhere in the yard. I really grew tired of it. But for some reason, the weather has calmed down and the wind has not been an issue. I hope the trend continues so that I won't have to chase down porch decorations LOL!!! BUT the trend this year is heat/rain. we've had so much rain that everything is mildewing....my out door pillows are mildewed...gross. I guess I can't be pleased. And as far as ash, I'm very familiar with it. We heat our old home with a wood stove in our fireplace. Boy does it lay down ash all over in the house every winter...I have to vacuum and dust a lot during that time, and when it finally warms up enough to close up the wood stove/chimney, I have to do a deep clean. So yeah, ''ash'' is my life, LOL!! I definitely have a nostalgia for a time when life was more connected, simpler and SANE! I think that's why we like warm blankets, pumpkins, old farm trucks and hay...it's down to earth, wholesome and real. I hope they get the fires under control fully and end the madness! . I lived in N Cali for 5 years, I loved it! Some of the best memories I have are from there. Blessings to you and your family!!

[@LaurenNicholsen]

lol 😂 “chasing porch decor “ if I ever wrote a book that’s what I would call it! So try! I hope that tens continues for you too!

[@Liz-jp9ro]

Yes I use mums. My favorite area is around my front door. Though not covered they do well. I’ve been told and I’ve seen on a garden channel that it’s best to pick mums NOT already bloomed but rather with buds that way you can keep them longer.

I clean my porches seasonally and as needed. Pressure wash occasionally. I think I would have tried the leaf blower to blow that ash out into the yard. One of my kids vacuumed up ash one time and it ruined my vacuum. But it was a lot of ash. The porch looks awesome!🧡🍁💛🍂🧡

[@LaurenNicholsen]

Thank you Carol!! I was so scared it was going to ruin my vacuum, but thankfully if its just a little, its ok.
