Christmas front porch



Here is our front porch decorated for Christmas . We have a decomesh garland around the front door. It is on an evergreen garland base , with 2 colors of decomesh and large ornaments and white lights. I made the JOY sign last year after I saw a pin on pinterest. I used one of my old craft show shelves. Yesterday I decided to redo it and painted the shelf and added the distressing , cut letters from my cricut and traced around them and painted them.

Got this snowman at The Christmas tree shop in Kentucky when we went to visit the college boy..

The santa is a vintage plastic yard decoration. We repainted him a few years ago because he was really faded.

The snowman in the bucket next to the door has white lights, and some branches from our real tree stuffed in the bucket with him.

The wreath is made from decomesh on a base of a evergreen wreath. 2 colors of decomesh , ribbon and sparkly red pics.
Thanks for visiting ! I appreciate all your nice comments ! Hope you have a wonderful weekend !
