Wow, it's already been 5 days since I last blogged. Between work, Christmas shopping, an office Christmas party, and attending two college graduations, this past week has been a blur!
We bought this wreath for 50% off last year after Christmas, and I was so excited to pull it out and finally be able to show it off! We couldn't find a wreath hanger that would work over our front door, so we ended up buying a $2 clear suction cup hanger at Wal-Mart, and it does a dandy job. I really like our wreath! The snow-tipped needles add just enough sparkle, but not so much that it's overwhelming.
And this is why I adore our big picture window around this time of year!
Ooooh, ahhhhh!
So there you have it, folks. If you have any [economical] tips or ideas on how to dress up our porch a little more, do share! There is an outlet outside, so we could add some lighted decorations, too (but I'll probably wait to snag something on sale post-Christmas).
On another note, I managed to get some more Christmas shopping done today, so I feel a little less stressed. Only a few more gifts to go. My idea of making creative DIY gifts for everyone didn't really pan out, due to the fact that I procrastinated this month, as usual. Thank goodness for Bed Bath & Beyond and 20% off coupons, am I right??

Me likey. Your wreath looks fantastic and the tree in the window is beeeautiful!
Love the tree too! I try to keep our front window shutters open so people can see the tree. :)
Too bad we're not neighbors or something, because you sound like a good shopping partner for the after Christmas sales!
I plan to hit up: Target (multiple times, as the prices drop, which is key), Pier 1, HomeGoods & TJ Maxx, Pottery Barn + Restoration Hardware (the outlets are great too), Michael's & Joann's... The lists are endless! I hope you eventually post what you're able to find at the great sales :)
Party on your front porch! I think you've done a great job. Also, I always have no less than 5 Bed Bath and Beyond coupons in my purse. I can't ever pay full price there!
Awww..it looks so warm and cozy. Great job!
I love yuor front porch! What a great space for morning coffee :) I like how deep and private it is.
The wreath your bough is so pretty, and love the tree in your front window very nice!!
design_aholic - Yes, I am definitely a bargain hunter by nature! I hope I'll find lots of deals to blog about! Good luck to you too!
Mrs. Chic - You're right, it would be perfect for morning coffee if we were coffee drinkers! :) But once we get some seating, I would totally eat some cereal out there on a nice morning :)
