I have a small porch so I have to choose my pieces to have a big bang in a little space and still leave room for visitors to get to the door! And I will be honest…there’s a lot of Lego chaos going on inside courtesy of the little grands so I am finding clean and simple quite attractive these days!
On one side you are greeted by an olive bucket containing a boxwood tied off with a plaid bow. It’s flanked by a lantern filled with red ornaments and my new favorite…a pair of rain boots filled with frosted berries and greenery. The boots are actually a Walmart sale find!
On the other side…another olive bucket and more lanterns.
On the door you will find my POTTERY BARN INSPIRED FAUX MAGNOLIA WREATH. It has been rotated from the mantel a couple of years ago to the porch…a great way to keep something fresh and different in each location.
And, of course, we have to have a little reminder for Santa to let him know that there are a couple of little guys inside who are almost beside themselves with excitement! But with a 5 and 6 year old in the house, there’s always lots of excitement!
And for more idea for a small space, here’s a look at my FARMHOUSE CHRISTMAS PORCH. And stay tuned for my mantel reveal…coming in a couple of days!
Remember to pin it!

Very welcoming, Debbie. I know you are going to have a fun Christmas with those little guys close at hand. We had a very wet few days, but now it is just grey and cold. Perfect weather for sitting by a cozy fire, drinking a cup of hot tea, and catching up on favorite blogs. Merry, Merry! ~ Sarah
