How do I keep my porch warm in the winter?
By providing a thermally insulating shutter screen on your porch, you can reduce the amount of cold winter air from entering the porch. Curtains can also be insulated to keep warm.
Adding sealants to the joints, cracks, and crevices will prevent cold air from entering the porch and your house. This process is often known as caulking and weather stripping.

Hanging a winter wreath also is a design choice for the creatively inclined. Farmhouse style cornucopias may be provided in the front porch, though one should not overdo the design.
Can you use a patio heater under a covered patio?
It is not recommended to use fire-based patio heaters under a covered patio since it poses the risk of catching fire. However, efficient electric heaters can be used for heating the patio outdoors during the winters. Portable fire pits can be created or bought which will cater to the temperature requirement of the season.

Using farmhouse style winter wreaths on the front door or simply hanging them on your porch will look good during winters. Painting small chairs with a snow theme or using plain white paint is also a better option. Matching pillows with a lantern (grey and black respectively) will also add to the design element during the winter. Try to match the overall theme of the porch with a small grey rug.
4. Winter-proof patio designs
Adding a custom fireplace to your patio will suit the overall look and purpose of the space. Try to stack books along the sides of the patio wall, as paper is a great insulator of cold air. You can also do a color match between the stone-based fireplace and sofa cushions. Orange color will look good on the sofa cushions, as it will match the orange/red stone layout of the patio floor and walls.
A layered look for the patio will surely turn a few heads. While designing this way, make sure to use a mix of cotton, plaid fabric, and dark lavender color.
While opting for a fire pit, there are choices which range from wood-based fire-pits to gas-based fire-pits.
