New House: Front Porch Progress | Summer Wreath

My mother in law made me a beautiful new wreath for our front door.  After the awful snake incident a few weeks I was ready to move on from the boxwood.  I love the bright and cheerful hydrangeas.  It really makes a big impact on our whole front porch. 

Now that we've been decorating with wreaths, I've come to love the front door color.  I think I'll still go with a fun coral or turqouise when we have the whole house painted in a few years.  But for now, I'm going to leave it.  I wish I knew the paint color for y'all but we inherited it from the previous owners.  I also love the huge impact a $10 fern makes.  We actually have two flanking the front door.  I'll have to take some better large porch shots for you soon.



Here is a before shot of the whole porch so you can see just how far we've come.  I'm pretty happy with things so far.  I'd like to get a large scale doormat and maybe some tweaking with the columns.  Overall, it's such an improvement.  I'm so thankful for this covered porch!


I think we're getting close to my orginal porch style board I made last summer.  I just love a traditional front porch.  Even a tiny little stoop could benefit from some timeless style.  Our new house has so much potential to be charming.  A welcoming entry is so important.  It's the first thing I see when we pull up to our home.
