Thought I would share the last of the photos that I shot for Romantic Homes that did not make the article. Plus, we sure haven't had snow yet, so I haven't even taken any photos of this year's porch.
I actually tried a couple different things out here and moved things around, because, obviously, things don't always translate to a photo. I styled the porch from both sides just to give them some options.
It was also about 18° when I shot these, so I was ready to get this done.
I used a plaid blanket as the jumping off point then went with pink and fuchsia grosgrain ribbons and fresh greenery.
The wreathes on the doors are actually faux, but I always embellish them with fresh greenery and no one knows they are not real.
I brought out pillows from inside to make things cozy.
I am so glad I waited patiently for snow because it sure made things magical:-) I only wish we had some now!
Beautiful! I always wish for snow at Christmas!

ReplyDeleteHi Anita, I always love seeing your porch, no matter what the season, but it's especially wonderful with the snow! That bright pink and fuchsia make it such one-of-a-kind decor! Have a wonderful Christmas!
ReplyDeleteYour porches just always grab me and pull me in. I can see myself rocking and sipping whatever drink is seasonal at the time.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful Anita.
May your Christmas be snowy and bright!

Love that blanket/throw as a jumping off point for the porch inspiration...Can't imagine why these photos were not used in the feature as they are so beautiful....Have a very Merry Christmas with your beloved family celebrating it with your wonderful family traditions!
