Step inside our coastal screened porch in our Watercolor Florida beach house and get the secrets to design your own – on any budget!

A screened porch is one of my favorite features in a home. It is an extension of your living space that allows you to enjoy the outdoors, with all of your favorite indoor amenities, without unwanted pests.

The screened porch was the first space I designed when we put a contract on the home and our first installation! It is one of the easiest spaces to transform – without a lot of effort or expense!

We didn’t see the home in person before we made an offer and closed on it, so I did my best to study realtor photos and the videos our realtor sent. I decided to take a less is more approach for screened porch and I’m glad I did. It feels light and airy and there is plenty of room to move around and breathe.

Screened Porch Furniture

I found the outdoor furniture that looks like Serena & Lily, that is well made, comfortable and inexpensive! The seating arrangement maximizes space making it feel larger and inviting.

Outdoor Pillow Covers

To balance the color, of our home’s exterior paint color and coastal blue furniture, I opted for a monotone pillow ensemble with texture, pattern and detail. It’s one of my favorite ways to mix and match pillow covers! I paired 2 luxury brands with one of my favorite Amazon pillow cover brands.

Throws and Rug

I love integrating cozy layers and comforts in a screened porch to make it look and feel like an extension of your living space and you can stroll through the back or bedroom doors without shoes and sip on a cup coffee in the morning.
