Have you been looking for droolworthy outdoor porches? Look no further! Check out all 8 of my favorites right now for all of your inspirational needs.

Truthfully, I’ve been struggling with designing my own “ideal” rustic and modern back porch ever since we finished painting the floors. I am so thankful for the hugeΒ wrap around porch on the back of our house, but it has been a struggle to figure out how to place furniture.

    For instance, one side of our porch faces our pond which is obviously a focal point. However, I don’t want to restrict the flow of traffic with huge couches or tables facing that direction either.

    I figured it was about time to look around, and see what kind of layout inspiration I could find to help me with my dilemma. Have you ever looked for porch inspiration? Holy cow, I think I could have spent hours upon hours just gazing at all the eye candy!

    My Favorite 8 Droolworthy Outdoor Porches:

    One of my favorite things about this particular porch is the blueish gray ceiling! Not mention, the pop of color with the curtains and pillows just makes me crave for a little color also on our porch. Can you even imagine how comforting it would be to look at this summery atmosphere all year round. Yup. definitely drooling.

    I typically don’t go for cottage or shabby chic, but I just can’t help but be drawn to the light and airy colors.

    Comfort. It is absolutely my style when it comes to clothes, and this porch reminds me of my favorite jeans. I just want to grab one of my favorite books and cuddle up in this swing for a nice siesta!
