Christmas Front Porch Decor

Hello and welcome to the 12 Days of Christmas blog hop!  On this eleventh day of Christmas, we are sharing our decorated porches.  Of the whole 12 days, this is the post that I am least happy with.  To be honest, I put this one on the back burner and kinda threw it together because I ran out of time!  It is a lot of work posting every day!  Although it has been a lot of fun too!  🙂

We have an odd shaped little front porch where there is not a lot of room by the door but there is a small extended part off to the left side of the door.  I have never really known what to do with it exactly so I have not put a lot of effort into decorating it.  I love decorating the inside of our house and feel like the outside gets neglected a lot of times.  If there was any kind of theme to the porch, it would revolve around Santa and his reindeer.

You may recognize the Santa pillow from our spray painted Christmas pillows tutorial that we did last year.  These spray painted pillows have held up great!

I love olive buckets and they look great outside as well as inside.  They look so good with some evergreen branches, pine cones and berries for Christmas.  So festive!

This red lantern looked “Christmasy” to me and fit in perfectly!

Here is Santa on the DIY Christmas Magnolia Wreath that I shared with you on Day 9…

And here are his reindeer… 🙂

These deer actually light up so they look pretty cool at night.

Well that is it, short and sweet.  I am excited for the last day, Day 12, tomorrow!  We will be sharing our trees!  Shhhhh!!!  See you then!
