1. Wooden Crate Table
An old wooden crate painted white – or any other pastel spring color – is the perfect way to bring attention to your beautiful porch. Use that crate as a table between your seats and you can even place a potted plant inside for additional splashes of color. I love how something so simple like adding an old crate table can make such an amazing statement.

2. Hand Painted Welcome Sign
Welcome guests to your decked out spring porch by simply adding a hand painted sign. I found this little jewel on Etsy, but you can make it in about an hour. And, if you have the wood and mason jar, it won't cost you anything. The mason jar is secured with a metal clamp and you could totally paint this any color or just whitewash it for a great spring look. Add some blooms to your jar and you've got a beautiful welcoming planter.

3. Rain Boot Planters
Nothing says spring quite like rain and rain boots. That said, you can incorporate those colorful rain boots into your spring porch décor. Just turn them into planters. Just use old rain boots – they can even be worn and have holes in the bottom – and fill them with potting soil. Then add your favorite plants and you've got the perfect spring planter to display on your porch.

4. Hanging Rain Gutter Planters
Old rain gutters are perfect for turning into spring planters to hang on your porch. These are so very easy to make and if you've recently replaced your gutters, you have everything you need. Just paint them a lovely spring color, or any color that matches your porch décor, and add your potting soil and flowers. I love this idea for hanging above porch railings and giving your entire porch a splash of color.

5. Decorative Bird Cages
Old bird cages are so gorgeous and when you paint them white – or yellow even – they make the perfect springtime decoration for your porch. Just add flowers and even a tiny bird decoration to instantly brighten up your porch. Birds are the epitome of spring and when you incorporate bright or pastel colors, you get a great display for the porch. You can pick up old bird cages pretty cheap at most thrift stores, too.

6. Milk Can Table
An old milk can – that you can get at most flea markets for just a few dollars – can be transformed into a beautiful table for your porch, and when you paint it a bright springtime color, it makes the perfect spring display. Just place the can between your chairs and you've got a colorful place to relax and sip tea or watch the world go by. Add a vase of flowers for even more color.

7. Living Number Box
This project actually takes care of two problems. It helps you to brighten up your porch for spring and gives you a beautiful display for your house number. You add fake grass for the background and against a white box, it's a beautiful contrast that will instantly bring the eye from the street to your porch. This is so easy to make and you can have it hanging within an hour or two.

8. DIY Twig Ladder
This DIY twig ladder is the perfect backdrop for your trailing flowers. Imagine having brightly colored flowers vining up a makeshift trellis right by the front door. You'll need to gather some twigs and then choose your flowers. If you want to get fairly strong sticks, you could also hang tiny buckets of flowers from the ladder.

9. Handmade Chandelier Planter
If your porch roof is tall enough, you can hang this beautiful chandelier that is filled with flowers right from the porch. This is a beautiful way to welcome spring and you can choose any type of flower that you want to display – provided it's small enough to live inside the tiny pots. Check your local thrift stores for old chandeliers, paint, and then plant. It's a simple project and a beautiful way to bring some color to the porch.

10. Colorful Pillows
If you're lucky enough to have a bench or patio couch on your porch, you can instantly brighten up that space with a few colorful pillows. It's so easy to make a few throw pillows, and you can choose springtime designs to really make your porch feel warm and welcoming. Even if you don't have a couch or bench, a chair would work. Just add pillows to the chair and you will notice an instant difference.

11. Stacked Pot Planter
Sometimes you have everything you need to decorate your porch for spring, but you just to determine how you are going to use those items in your décor. Instead of sitting your potted plants on the porch, why not create this stacked planter and give your décor a bit of uniqueness? This is so easy to make and when you paint it bright colors, it's just screams springtime.

12. Drawer Planters
Take those old dresser drawers, the ones that you are planning to throw out, and give them new life. At the same time, you'll be creating a gorgeous display for your front porch that will house lovely flowers this spring. These are so easy to make – you just need to add a coat of paint. They're also a really creative way to upcycle old drawers and bring a bit of brightness to the porch.

13. DIY Vertical Wall Planter
This vertical wall planter will instantly add color to your front porch and brighten it up for spring. I love the idea of having different colored flowers in the buckets – you can use peonies which come in so many different colors and this entire project will cost you less than $75 and that's if you have to purchase everything. If you have some of the supplies you can make it for practically nothing.
