Day 2 | Christmas Porch & Entryway Ideas
Today is Day 2 of our 10 Days of Christmas. Yesterday we shared Christmas DIY ideas. Today we are moving on to our best decorating ideas for porches and entryways to our homes.
Decorating my front porch is one of my favorite holiday tasks. I love coming up with a different look every year and then sharing my ideas with you.
Today I have a treat and have so many ideas to inspire you this holiday season!
Vintage/Retro Christmas Porch
This was one of my favorites! Sometimes it just takes one item to inspire an entire look for me. In the case of this front porch, it was a retro-looking tin Christmas sign that I actually found at Walmart (sorry, can’t find anything like it available online). Instead of traditional reds & greens, I used blues and silver as my accent colors. Of course, I snuck a couple of my vintage finds in there too!!

here are a few fun facts…
- I’ve lived in New England my entire life! This is good because the beach is my favorite place to be…even in the winter, I love to go breathe in the salt air.
- I am an EARLY BIRD!!! I rarely sleep past 4…it’s my favorite time of day and those wee hours are my most productive. (plus, I LOVE coffee!!)
- The Gilmore Girls is my favorite all-time TV show…I’ve seen every episode at least 20 times!! “You jump, I jump, Jack” is my #1 favorite. (I.Y.K.Y.K.)
