Porches full of joy. Memories to keep.

A few festive touches, a porch dressed for the season, or photos with the people you love. Let’s make room for a little joy in every season, with a plan that fits your home and budget.

A sweet name. A welcome for every season.
Peppermint Porches is here for spring blooms, summer gatherings, cozy fall days, Christmas, and everyday welcomes. Porch styling and photo sessions aren’t just for Christmas.

Seasonal Welcomes

Porch styling for every season. Start small. Make it special.

You don’t need a big porch or a full makeover to enjoy the season. We can start with pieces you already own and add only what you love. The prices below cover planning, local travel, and my time; new décor and plants are separate and yours to keep.

Just a little festive touch

A Little Seasonal Welcome

Want help with just a doorway, a pair of pots, or one little corner? Ask for a little seasonal welcome using pieces you already have. We’ll agree on the task, time, and price first; shopping or new décor is extra.

Your budget is part of the plan.

You can use everything you already own. If you want new pieces, we agree on a spending limit before anything is purchased.

Shopping, extra time & deposit details

If we buy anything

  • You can pay the store directly and keep the receipt. There is no product markup in that case.
  • If I purchase approved items for you, I charge the receipt cost plus 15% for purchasing and handling, with a $15 minimum. I’ll show you the receipts.
  • No purchases above the budget you approve. Special orders or large items are quoted before ordering.

Time and travel

  • Service prices include normal travel within Statesville, Troutman, and Mooresville.
  • For an address outside those towns, I’ll tell you any travel charge before you book.
  • Extra time is $65 per hour, billed in 30-minute increments only with your approval.
  • A 50% service deposit reserves your visit. If I’m buying products, the approved product budget is paid before I shop; remaining service balance is due at the visit.
What could a seasonal welcome cost?

Style What You Have ($175) + $100 in new pieces you buy directly = $275 total. You can spend less, more, or nothing on new décor. We agree on your plan first.

The heart behind Peppermint Porches

Everyone deserves a little joy.

I’m Mandy, and I love the way a few beautiful things can brighten someone’s day. My hope for Peppermint Porches is to help more people enjoy that feeling—whether it’s a little front step, a bigger seasonal display, or a photo with the people they love.

I’m building this for my family, with a heart for yours. I want to offer thoughtful choices for different budgets, use what you already have whenever we can, and help you make memories without feeling like you have to do everything.

My heart is in the little things: a welcoming place to come home to, a reason to pause and enjoy the season, and a moment that makes someone feel cared for. You don’t need a perfect home or a big budget to deserve something beautiful.

A heart for giving back

As a veteran, supporting those who have served is personal to me. Helping people living with multiple sclerosis is close to my heart, too. As Peppermint Porches grows, my goal is to set aside part of the profit to support these causes while building a business that provides for my family.

I’m still choosing the organizations and working out a giving plan I can sustain. No charity partnership or purchase-based donation program is currently in place. When the details are ready, I’ll share who we support and how our giving works.

The seasons change. The welcome stays.
Share a little joy • Pay it forward

Help another family make a memory.

Want to treat another family to a seasonal mini photo session? Pay it forward for $75, including 15 minutes and 5 digital photos. Sponsored sessions are offered across the seasons, not just at Christmas, as photo dates become available. It’s a simple way to give someone a special moment and photos they can keep.

Ask about sponsoring a session

A thoughtful gift, planned together

Your $75 sponsorship covers one standard mini session. We’ll confirm the location, availability, and arrangements before you pay. If you have a family in mind, let me know. Otherwise, we can talk about arranging a sponsored session for a local family.

Sponsored sessions are arranged individually. The receiving family gets a digital photo link to download and print themselves.

Let's start with a conversation

What would bring you a little joy?

Ask about porch styling, a mini photo session, or sponsoring one for another family. For porch work, a photo of your entry helps. I’ll confirm the details, timing, and full cost before we reserve anything.

  1. Choose the kind of help you’d like.
  2. For porch styling, tell me what you own and your décor budget. For photos, tell me who’s coming.
  3. We agree on the plan and price before your visit.

Serving Statesville, Troutman, and Mooresville, NC. Nearby areas are welcome to ask.
