Hi there everyone!
Today, I am sharing our Festive and whimsical Christmas porch 2013
Once again, going along with our Christmas tidings series.
if you missed our Winter tablescapes
or Burlap projects, you can check those out as well.
today we are sharing our porches. I am calling our porch Festive and Whimsical. I am just a hodge podge mess I guess when it comes to decorating.
I think these are always my favorite. I love a good porch!
Especially a Christmas porch!
{OK I just noticed the Fall wreath hanger, oh well} HA!
I try to decorate the porch a little different each year.
You can check out 2012 if you like.
I usually use what I already have and just mix it around from year to year.
My rooster always gets a dressing up.
Yes, only one skate. My Mom found it years ago, and I love it.
I do have a black pair near the fireplace this year.
Little dollar tree ornaments and stockings.
Something crafted from a few years ago,
My Mod podge Wood letter JOY chips with book pages and glitter.
Dollar tree snowflakes
Window decals always add a little extra whimsy and color.
Reindeer out of a Palm tree bark. How cute is that!
My diy Christmas pallet sign I made last year.
Spray painted pine cones. I set in an old vintage ash tray we have on the porch, strictly for decor, no smokers here!
So very glad you stopped by today!
Don’t forget to check out the other Christmas porches.

Cute as every Debbie, it is nice to see all your crafty things on the porch. Love the lantern filled with ornaments.
Debbie, I only have one skate, too! I found mine at the auction but I’m going to buy all that I see this year. Love the deer that was made out of the palm bark. I remember seeing them when we lived in the Lowcountry, but I had forgotten about them. Your porch would not be yours if it didn’t have a rooster on it!
What I love about this is that there are so many interesting things to look at. My fave is the rooster in his Santa bow, and I love the skating sign with the single skate. What a fun porch!
Your porch is so done up and festive!! I love it so much! Your neighbors must love it too!
So pretty, fun and festive!!! Gotta luv the roo!!!~~Ang
Oh, how fun and pretty, Debbie! I love your rooster all decked out for Christmas! I guess I need to dress my guy, too. 🙂
Debbie,
It is festive, cute and a kick of whimsy. It is really you and I love it all. Great job.

All you need is some snow 🙂 Your porch looks fabulous ! Love the bookpage JOY !
I love your outdoor Christmas decor Debbie. My favorite is the decals on the windows.
So cute Debbie and I love those JOY book page letters. Really festive and most of all, fun!
Very pretty, Debbie! I love your sled and skate! I found a pair over the Summer and just gave them a little fur trim. I’ve been hoping to get out to a few stores, including the dollar store, but our roads have been snowy and now icy here. I’m hoping today, as the clock is ticking!
I did a lantern with ornaments in it also! I have a black lantern with glittery red balls.
I love all of your ideas!
look very festive love the ho ho windows so cute you forgot to put pine branches in the skate like it came with holly and pine 🙂
Your porch looks great Debbie! I love the rooster!
gorgeous Debbie….I want to do a drive-by your house and steal some junk!!!! LOL
Looks fantastic! I love fun and whimsical and you do it so well.

Festive & whimsical are the perfect words to describe your porch! It looks great, Debbie. If those urns ever go missing, you might want to check if I’m in the neighborhood. Lol
What a fun and festive porch! The sled & skate are perfect, they speak Christmas. I love your Joy banner, too. Oh, I just love it all!
Debbie 🙂
Debbie,
I love your porch. You even fit a holiday rooster into your decor. Looks very fun.
I love that sled by your front door..plus the Ice skate..I think I’m going to have start making me a list of items that I want to look for that I could use for decorating in 2014.. Those items would be on that list, along with different sizes, shapes of Dollar store apothecary jars, reindeer, Christmas dishes like Pat (Back Porch Musings)showed. I also liked Christy’s BHG dishes with the Cardinal she said she got from Walmart last year. Inexpensive table urns that could hold a centerpiece. Learn to make foral arrangements or pay one of the Craft stores to make it for me. Look for items that could be used all year round, not just for the Christmas season. Look for old lumber or pallets to make my own homemade signs..buy stencils to use for that purpose..I could look at all the wonderful blogs and get lots of inspiration..It only takes that green stuff but if you buy it after Christmas if you can find it, or throughout the year when you see it, I could have a nice collection next year. Red lanterns go on that list too. Red could also be used for Valentine’s Day decor.
