Our front porch is about all I can manage (the back screened-in porch will have to wait until another year). I simply added some fresh Christmas tree trimmings to a copper wood basin we had and hung a fresh evergreen wreath on our front door. Not much at all–but that’s the kind of simplicity I like.
We got new black rocking chairs this past summer and are enjoying using them out front and for photo opportunities. Our old chalkboard where we often write messages hangs out on our front porch as well.
I have so much fun using fresh greenery to make our home look festive for the holidays. Wreaths are very easy to make from greenery like boxwoods, fresh rosemary, or evergreen trees from your yard. Adding a different colored ribbon each year helps to keep things interesting.
Other than the front porch, we don’t do any other outdoor decorating such as lights, etc. Just simply no time!
