I love decorating inside AND outside for Christmas. I only have a small space out front now but try to make it as welcoming as possible! You all know I love Santas, and SANTA greets you! Welcome!!!
A pretty wreath on the door also says welcome.
I filled my urn with faux greens, poinsettias, and ornament picks, package picks and red sticks.
This little tree is lit at night. I was wanting to take some pictures for you at dusk but it was raining:(
I filled my lantern with faux snow and some pretty ornaments. Tied a red and gold bow on top and added some gold picks.
I got this Santa, made from a fence post, at a craft fair MANY years ago.
This is my Santa that used to sit in the sleigh. I just love him!!! The packages are lit at night and there is a spotlight on Santa.
Isn't that a sweet face?
He is reading The Night Before Christmas.
We bring the bench from the patio around to the front for Christmas so Santa has a place to rest:)
I put 2 swags on the garage lights.
I also made a swag for the mailbox.
Can you tell I love red and gold at Christmas:)
The lit snowman waves a greeting too.
Not sure if you can see the deer out by the pond.
Love these swags of pine, and other greens with pinecones. I just make a fresh bow each year.
The LARGE wreath is on the side of the house. You see it as soon as you turn onto our street. I re edged the beds yesterday, it was 70 degrees again!!! I LOVE this!!!!
I grouped 3 ball ornaments together with wire. I will have to replace the poinsettias next year. Gold pinecones and berries fill in too.
Thanks again for your visit. Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!!

Hi Pinky! You have definitely created a welcoming Christmas entry - so many wonderful touches. Of course, your Santa is amazing. He is definitely a big boy! I have the same twiggy snowman. He recently needed a little "surgery" after he blew over onto his face after a windy day, lol. Poor guy. Anyway, beautifully done Pinky! Jane
ReplyDeleteBeautiful job. Love that Santa reading. And the waving snow man and big wreath on the house.
ReplyDeleteIt is definitely Christmastime at your home, Pinky! I love it!

ReplyDeleteI love that he is on the bench reading a book so classic. Thanks for sharing on Rattlebridge Farm.
ReplyDeleteIt's all very festive, Pinky. Love the bench sitting Santa. He would make me smile every time I walked up to that front door.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
