When we consider home lighting options we often think of living room lamps and dining room chandeliers. However, the latter can make a stunning porch addition, as proven by Miranda Lambert.

The country musician recently shared a clip of her singing on her green porch, and we couldn't help but admire the antler chandelier that hangs from her wood-beamed ceiling. It's giving us some major porch lighting ideas.

The animal-inspired lighting fixture adds to the overall rustic feel of the area, proving that with the correct styling, a chandelier can look just as fabulous outside the home as it does in.

According to experts, the addition of a chandelier to a porch can take the space to the next level thanks to its inherent elegance.

'Elevating your porch with a chandelier can transform the space from a simple outdoor entryway to a refined, welcoming haven,' says Westchester-based designer, Nina Lichtenstein. 'Far from being limited to indoor spaces, chandeliers add elegance and sophistication to a porch while providing functional, ambient lighting. Their intricate designs and dynamic glow create an atmosphere of warmth and charm, making your porch not only a place of arrival but also a destination for relaxation and entertaining.'

She continues, 'A chandelier instantly elevates the aesthetic of a porch by introducing a sense of grandeur and personality. Its presence sets the tone for the home, whether you’re embracing rustic charm with a wrought-iron design, coastal vibes with a seashell chandelier, or contemporary elegance with sleek crystal styles. Chandeliers also diffuse light beautifully, offering a softer, more inviting glow than harsher overhead fixtures. This makes them ideal for creating an ambiance that feels luxurious yet cozy, perfect for evenings spent sipping tea or hosting intimate gatherings.'

In terms of styling, Lichtenstein recommends keeping furnishings and accessories close to the chandelier.

'Arrange seating, such as a cozy outdoor sofa or rocking chairs, directly below or near the chandelier to create a focal point that feels intentional,' she suggests. 'Pair the chandelier with other subtle lighting options like lanterns, sconces, or string lights to enhance the ambiance without cluttering the space.'

Additionally, make sure that other accessories are complementary against the chandelier. We love how Lambert has framed her antler chandelier with other natural materials and colors, such as wood and green paint.

'Match the chandelier’s material to other design elements, such as the hardware on your door or the trim of your furniture,' Lichtenstein says. 'For example, a black metal chandelier pairs beautifully with wrought iron railings or dark-stained wooden furniture. Add soft textures like outdoor rugs, plush cushions, and flowing curtains to echo the chandelier’s opulence while keeping the porch inviting.'

For a more minimalist modern porch, consider an iron or metal chandelier, which will tie contemporary materials together.

Color enthusiasts have been reveling in the dopamine decor trend for a while now – but this season, designers are getting even more serious about using color in unexpected places.

'This year, people will be embracing color like never before, and it isn’t just about rolling out a new shade on the walls,' comments color expert and designer Sophie Robinson. 'Adding bold color into our homes through accessories is always an instant hit as we look for ways to bring the joy of color and a touch of our personalities into our space.'

The best place to start? The kitchen – or, more specifically – your cookware. We've got our eyes on a set from Miranda Lambert's Wanda June line at Walmart, which comes with four dinner plates, four dessert plates, and four cereal bowls in shades of green, blue, yellow, and orange. It's dopamine decor if we ever saw it – and it's on sale now.

Adding colorful bowls, plates, and glassware into a kitchen is an excellent way to make use of open shelving units. While closed cabinetry is great for keeping clunky appliances out of sight, the beauty of open shelves is that they can display beautiful ceramics, like Lambert's dishware set, out in the open, where they can function as decor.

We also love how the Wanda June set is stackable, allowing for easy placement on shelves and a uniform appearance when individual items are placed on top of one another. This also helps prevent any slippage between dishes.

'Greige and neutrals have had their moment; the time is now to celebrate bold, beautiful color on your table and in your home,' Robinson adds (in her trend report for Le Creuset).

The Wanda June Marfa Sunset set was originally $49.97 but is on sale now for $39.98 (as part of the best Black Friday homes deals currently on the market). Below, we've rounded up some other colorful kitchen products that would be perfect for displaying on open shelves, on your countertops, or on any tablescape. Happy shopping!

For some, a porch is an oasis; a second living room, where seating is plenty and paint colors are considered with just as much thought. Miranda Lambert is in this porch-loving camp.

The singer recently shared a clip to her Instagram page sitting on a rattan seat with her green-painted walls in view. Her green walls are lightly paneled with a cool, grounding hue. We love the boldness of her color choice, and it has made us consider how to decorate with green paint. It turns out the benefits are plentiful.

According to experts, the color green, which is a staple within design schemes such as Japandi and organic modern, is beneficial to a home's value in addition to being visually pleasing. 'Decorating a front porch or home exterior with green paint can make a bold and inviting statement that not only enhances curb appeal but can also subtly boost a home’s value,' says Westchester-based designer, Nina Lichtenstein. 'Green, in its many shades, is a versatile choice that connects a home to its natural surroundings, making it a favorite among designers and homeowners alike.'

It's the perfect shade for outdoor walls. Lichtenstein continues, 'From deep forest tones to fresh sage and olive, green paint on an exterior creates an ambiance of calm and timeless charm. It’s a color that feels grounded and enduring, adding a feeling of warmth while harmonizing beautifully with both contemporary and traditional architectural styles. Darker greens, like hunter or emerald, are especially impactful on front doors or shutters, where they add depth and sophistication. Softer shades, such as sage or mint, feel refreshing and approachable, creating a welcoming vibe that invites guests in with a sense of tranquility.'

Green also taps into the ever-enduring natural and organic modern decor trend, which favors earthy and sustainable materials. Lichtenstein explains: 'As green tones rise in popularity, they’re increasingly seen as both stylish and sustainable choices, aligning with a larger trend toward natural, earth-inspired palettes in home design. This shift has made green a sought-after color that buyers find appealing, whether it’s on a cozy bungalow or a stately colonial.'

If you love Lambert's porch color, it's easy to emulate the look in your own home, even without the use of paint. Integrating a few well-chosen green furnishings can bring in the same calming, natural feel.

If you are hoping to boost curb appeal and tap into timeless paint trends, green might just be the best choice. Lichtenstein advises: 'For homeowners looking to create an exterior that feels timeless yet on-trend, green is an exceptional choice. Its versatility in shade and style allows it to stand out while blending perfectly into natural landscapes, offering a harmonious, elevated look that can make any home feel both refreshed and rooted in nature.'

Considering the design of outdoor spaces with the same care as indoor spaces can help elevate these spots to the status of a living room.

Miranda Lambert just made quintessential southern hospitality accessible in every corner of the country.

However, today, some of her pieces are reduced more than ever, thanks to the brand's first seasonal sales event.

'That's really the heart of my brand. The products are a physical representation of a long line of beautiful memories with amazing women. I am thrilled to launch Wanda June Home with Walmart, where my grandpa was a greeter back in the day and where I’ve shopped all my life.'

Miranda Lambert and her husband Brendan McLoughlin's front door is painted a deep and inviting forest green color. The shade pairs perfectly with their stone walls and their porch's deep, reddish wood. It is a masterclass in choosing a door color for a natural toned home.

The singer revealed the front door color in a recent Instagram video in which McLoughlin is working out on their patio. Their design features natural stones on the exterior walls, flowing into black and green roofing. Lambert and McLoughlin have chosen an orange-reddish stained wood for the porch, which they have decided not to paint, allowing the natural veins of the beautiful wood to shine through. A large tree surrounded by a stone bed rises out of the surface of the porch. In the background, two green doors sitting side by side make a gorgeous statement.

Experts agree that green paint is the ideal choice for the natural shades of the couple's home. 'Deep forest green is a timeless, elegant choice for a front door, beautifully contrasting and harmonizing with natural stone and wood, enhancing the home's overall aesthetic with its rich and welcoming appeal,' says Marc Welch, LA-based architect and CEO of Welch Design Studio.

The exterior paint color is also perfect because of the contrast it provides against the brown rest of the home. 'I personally love homes with a front door color that differs from the rest of the house—I think it's a great way to set your home apart, and forest green is a great, eye-catching, beautiful color to use,' says paint expert, Andre Kazimierski, CEO, Improovy Painters of La Grange. He continues, 'It looks great alongside natural materials because I would consider it more of a natural color itself—so it will tend to compliment the hues of natural wood and stone, just like you'd find in a forest.'

Rather than introducing a completely new shade, green amongst neutrals creates a pop while also aligning with the colors that already appear naturally in the space. This idea aligns well with color theory, which states that colors near each other on the color wheel will pair well together for a tonal look. Different shades of green will create different effects, from a light sage color to a deep kelly green, it's all about considering the undertones of the other materials on the home.

What's the point of a green front door if you can't enjoy it? Cozy and inviting outdoor furniture makes the perfect patio accessory. Natural materials like wicker, wood, and stone perfectly complement the gorgeous paint color.

Though green is the perfect choice for Miranda Lambert and Brendan McLoughlin, that doesn't make it true for everyone, depending on your taste, style, and what you want to accomplish with your design. The best way to choose a front door color is by first considering the fact that the front door creates the first impression you and any visitors have when they arrive at your home.

Whether you want to create a relaxed, inviting, or bold impact will change the way you paint. Different shades can even be used to create whatever aesthetic we want.

Gray may be most commonly associated with the '80s, but we are inclined to say that the color is back and better than ever. Whether used as a neutral base in a dopamine decor space or as a kitchen backsplash, gray can be a timeless yet trendy choice for the home.

Need proof? Look no further than Miranda Lambert's porch. The country singer's outdoor space is decked out with wood and twinkle lights, but our eyes were immediately drawn to her gray, painted floorboards, which beautifully contrast the more natural details.

According to experts, flooring can actually be a huge factor in a home's curb value; as such, it's an important element to consider when designing the interior (or exterior) of a house.

'Beautiful and durable flooring is a massive selling point, says Neel Bradham, CEO at global flooring brand Parador. 'While hardwood was historically favored, the biggest drawback is its inability to withstand moisture – making it less than ideal for high-traffic family homes.'

With this in mind, it's a great idea to double up on appealing renovations and paint floors a color that will stand the test of time.

'Gray is a safe and chic choice for an exterior paint color, particularly a porch, where passersby get a first impression of the home,' says Homes & Gardens' editor, Jennifer Ebert. 'It's an incredibly versatile neutral, with the ability to match the natural wood decor, as seen on Miranda Lambert's property, along with brighter colors. There are endless decor possibilities.'

While its heyday was a few decades ago, Ebert says that gray has a contemporary feel today.

'Painting a front porch a greige can instantly modernize a space that may have older roots,' she explains. 'It's important to select a shade of gray that ties together the interior with the exterior, and creates a seamless transition between the two.'

We love the creamy gray that Lambert has selected, but also are partial to a greige that suits most modern, minimalist aesthetics.

As a country musician, Miranda Lambert's songs evoke visions of dirt roads and rural pastures; a staple within the genre. However, when it comes to the "Mama's Broken Heart" singer's home, she likes to infuse these country sensibilities with a touch of modernity: AKA, the modern farmhouse look.

The singer-songwriter recently posted a photo of her kitchen on Instagram, and we love the blend of rustic and contemporary elements, from her white-tiled walls to the wood shelves and mint green, painted cabinets.

The modern farmhouse trend is beloved for its ability to combine what may be seen by some as opposing styles. Sleek materials like marble can exist alongside reclaimed wood, with the latter serving as a solid foundation for this ever-trending design.

'Stylistically, the wood look brings an elegant, organic feel to a space, adding texture and interest to an interior whilst remaining neutral,' says Neel Bradham, a design expert from Parador. 'From beautiful oaks and deep walnuts to light ash, these natural hues incorporate the outside world into our homes, offering a grounded and calm foundation.'

Another key element of the modern farmhouse trend, as seen in Lambert's own kitchen, is open shelving. Allowing chic and frequently-used items like ceramic bowls or vintage pitchers to be displayed just adds to the rustic appeal.

'Whether it's a renovation of an older home or the construction of a new one, these modern farmhouse-style homes all tend to have design features like exposed beams, walls paneled in shiplap or beadboard, and kitchens that feature exposed shelving instead of upper cabinets, apron front sinks and a classic gooseneck faucet,' says Angelica Ferguson VonDrak, Associate Real Estate Broker at Sotheby's International Realty.

The burst of green via Lambert's mint cabinets is also intentional in achieving the modern farmhouse look; though the style favors warm neutrals, a pop of green is recommended by experts to create some vibrancy in the space.

'The sage color will compliment the lighter tones in the space and connect beautifully with the black accents to bring all of the elements together in a cohesive and organic way,' says Jane Barnes, designer at her eponymous company. 'Plants are another excellent way to achieve this, real or faux.'

Below, we have curated some modern farmhouse kitchen essentials to create a blissful and cozy ambiance. They bring the Lambert-look to all spaces without the need for a huge renovation, so what are we waiting for?

Miranda Lambert's Tennessee home is a quintessential celebration of country chic – complete with a wooden-hued living room and a horse barn across 75 acres of woodland hills. Though, it is not all traditional. 

In her kitchen, the singer interrupted her home's primarily neutral color scheme by introducing daring pockets of mint on her kitchen cabinets and statement refrigerator – an unexpected move that hasn't gone unnoticed by designers. But what makes this color sought-after among those in the know?

'Mint green, also known as a powder or light green, possesses a distinct allure that sets it apart from traditional cabinet colors. This refreshing shade brings a touch of nature indoors, infusing spaces with tranquility and serenity,' says New York-based design expert Elizabeth Grace.

While Miranda's space isn't exactly what we would call a 'small kitchen,' Elizabeth explains that this hue is perfect for more compact homes due to its size-enhancing qualities. 

And, when it comes to accentuating a small room further, we should follow the singer's lead and pair these mint hues with similar white walls (and mirrors to take it further still).  

'If your kitchen lacks abundant natural light, mint green cabinets can work wonders in brightening the space. Their light-reflective properties create an illusion of increased luminosity, making the area feel more open and spacious,' Elizabeth explains. 'Complemented by crisp white walls and strategically placed mirrors – these cabinets will infuse your kitchen with a breath of fresh air.'

As Elizabeth mentions, mint green cabinets work particularly well against classic neutral tones – just as Miranda demonstrates. 

In the singer's case, the off-white walls and dark wooden features are a nod to the estate's overall timeless aesthetic. However, it is hard to go wrong with these hues in any style of home – especially when pairing with mint green kitchen cabinets that 'beautifully juxtapose neutral color palettes, and add depth' to the overall design. 

'Against a backdrop of creamy whites, subtle grays, or warm beiges, these cabinets serve as a focal point, exuding a sense of refined charm,' Elizabeth says. 'Consider incorporating natural textures like marble or wood [like Miranda] to create a harmonious balance between contemporary and organic elements.'

And Mike Serafino, the owner and designer at Heartwood Kitchens in Massachusetts, similarly recommends following suit – adding that, alongside its size-enhancing qualities, green invites nature's healing qualities inside.  

'When we make decisions on the design of a home, we consider the windows and surroundings,' he says. 

Whether you have a view of the outdoors or not, seamlessly blending the interior with natural surroundings makes for a special living space. When the sun and foliage are in full bloom, it generally makes us feel happy. Why wouldn't we want our homes to have the same effect?'

To experiment with this effect, we're picking up this similar color sample, available via Backdrop below.
