My DIY wreath, which had such potential to change with the seasons and be a happy, holiday-appropriate fixture of our front door, is finally living up to its potential! Last year I attempted to update it for fall and then for Christmas, but both were fairly sad attempts. I am pleased with this round though.
Our entire front porch got a tiny bit festive for fall.
See the neighborhood watchman?
I just tucked some fake leaves behind fall-colored felt flowers that are attached with bobbi pins.
Our previous doormat lasted five years — and by lasted I mean it lay there for five years. It probably should have been replaced much sooner, but this find was worth the wait. It ties our blue door trim in with the fall colors.
Corban helped us pick our family of pumpkins from Cozy Nook Farm’s pumpkin patch. They aren’t quite to scale.
We learned the hard way that mums apparently require sunlight. Or at least that’s why I’m guessing ours died and our neighbors’ across the street are thriving.
Happy fall! Although now it’s pretty much time to change over to Christmas decor. I’ll share that as soon as I get it up!
