I am currently obsessed with cement planters. I love the clean, modern home decor look and I love the contrast of the light cement color with the vivid colors in the flowers and greenery of Spring plants. I’ve sourced all my favorite cement planters for you from places like Pottery Barn, Target, Wayfair, cb2, and West Elm. Don’t forget your own personalized front door mat like ours that says – Miller’s est. 2002! I love the personal touch this door mat gives when guests come to your front door.

Now that we’ve discussed cement planters and some of my favorite must-have items for your Spring porches, I have to mention exterior lighting because it is oh so important. We’ve been in our house a year and a half now and for that entire time (plus the year that we were building it) I searched for exterior sconces that were the right modern home decor style and size for my house. Well, I was never able to find some so I had these sconces made and I love how they turned out. If you are in the Tulsa area and would like the source for these modern sconces, feel free to contact me! And because I understand the struggle that is trying to find outdoor wall sconces to go with modern home decor, I’ve sourced several online options for you here:
You can shop our Entryway Look Here.
If you look at this picture of our full elevation, you will see that we have a little side porch area on the far right of our house. Of course I had to get it all fixed up for Spring too!
I’m loving those pops of purple with the heather and lilacs!

Shout out to Mike Miller for helping on this blog hop, even though I know he was annoyed that I bought so many plants when all I will do is kill them. I love you Mike Miller. Also, you’re so much better at vacuuming than me.

Lovve your home! So inviting and dont feel bad about killing plants cause aint nobody got time for that! That being keeping them alive! AHA! And Mike, great job vacuuming! My boyfriends dad vacuums every night and day. Ive even caught him vacuuming the dog! He has also broken my toe nail off while i was trying to get around him while vacuuming. So i think you are better at it then he is!

Absolutely gorgeous CC! And your custom sconces are perfection!!
Thank you so much Kim!
Can you tell me about care for the dwarf mondo grass that is growing between your paver stones outside your side porch? We planted some in the fall and are growing it between pavers in a similar style, but it;s pretty brown after this winter, despite supposedly being evergreen. How much sun does yours get, and was it fully filled in when you bought your house?
Hello Melissa! That was actually newly planted mondo grass which is why it looks so healthy! Our dwarf mondo that has been outside all winter by our pool is looking a bit unhealthy but we think it will make a comeback this spring hopefully! Ours is in full sun and it was not filled in when we planted it but did fill in within a few months. Hope that helps!
It does help! Thank you. Beautiful home!!
What a gorgeous home! I love your entryway and those flowers. I have faith in you that you won’t kill them (like me!)
Hugs, Jamie
Thank you so much Jamie! Sadly my plants are already looking a little worn. I swear I am cursed!
