For a festive holiday porch display, look no further than the garden. Your hanging baskets and planters are perfect vessels to create the warm, cozy feel of Christmas traditions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the pleasure that you bring when you make that doorbell ring<\/p>“Home for the Holidays” Allen & Stillman<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

You might be looking to brighten up the front porch for holiday guests. But you’re the one who sees it every day! So why not create something that you’ll enjoy coming home to, as well? Here’s a charming little arrangement that you can throw together with very little time and effort. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you love to garden, then this little craft project is right down your alley. Bring a planter or two out of storage. Leave the dirt in it, but clear away any dead plant debris. Your decorations are going to go right on top. You can even use your watering can as an accent piece!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most people put their garden stuff away. For me, it’s invigorating and refreshing to see something green against a stark winter backdrop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If not, swing into your neighborhood thrift store for all the trimmings at very affordable prices. The interesting thing about thrift stores is that you can often find holiday decor that dates back a few years–maybe even a vintage item–that brings the perfect uniqueness to your arrangement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
