Dallas Mom Turns Pumpkin Decorating into a Holiday Goldmine

Meet Heather Torres, a 41-year-old stay-at-home mom from Dallas, Texas. She's got a talent for transforming porches intoFall festive masterpieces. This all started back in 2020 when neighbors admired her own home's decor and asked if she could do the same for theirs. Fast forward to now, and Heather's side hustle has become a huge success. She's decorated over 1, 000 homes this year alone! Clients are willing to pay big bucks, ranging from $325 to $1, 350 per porch.

Heather finds inspiration from places like the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden, using different pumpkin varieties to create stunning displays. She even starts prepping in July to keep up with the demand. After the fall season wraps up, her company, Porch Pumpkins, returns to take down the decorations. For Heather, it's not just about the money; she loves bringing joy to people during the holiday season.
