I just had to do a little post with beautiful doors!
All of these photos are from
I love wreathes--- and love to see them on doors for the holidays.
Aren't these so inviting...
When you decorate the front door
it is like saying come on in!
This RED door with the iron hardware is just darling!
Love the Green Ribbon here.
So maybe with this little bit of inspiration
you can figure out something
to add to your front door!

Christmas in a different house can be really fun!
Notice many of the same items that I had from last year
but how they are incorporated in a different space.
So nice to have a little fire!
Same tree.
A little bit of lighting.
Did you notice the same quilt and the mirror with the garland?
(Fabric and Natural Elements)
Little wreaths on the lamps.
Merry Christmas!

Just a Little Christmas to share.
This was some of our Christmas decorations last year.
Notice, many of the principles that we talk about
also work well when decorating for Christmas.
Lighting
Fabric
Natural Elements
Balance
Groupings
Color and Pattern
It all creates a cozy comfortable space to live in!
In my next post I will share some of the Christmas decor of this year.

Studio 5 - Fall Decorating---Great Looks For Your Front Porch And More!
3 comments Posted by ImagineCozy at 9:04 PMHere is the segment that we did on Friday!
I always love to work with Studio 5,
Thanks for having me on.
4 ideas on how to decorate
your front porch for Fall---
all for under $50.00.
1. Paint the front door ---a little fresh paint in a fall color, really adds to the autumn feel.
2. Add vinyl numbers on the door---what a fun way to show your address.
3. Hang a wreath---a great way to add some texture and personality.
4. Place a pot of mums and some pumpkins--- flowers and pumpkins always add a pop of color.
How to bring some of that fall décor inside.
• I love to add little pumpkins ---
there are a wide variety of styles, and you can put them in almost anything.
• Add a lantern with an orange candle.
• I have a cake plate full of leaves and squash on my table.
• Hang a wreath on the mirror in the entry.
• Frame a few pressed leaves.

We did this front porch makeover for a Studio 5 segment.
BEFORE
AFTER
I think the biggest change is just the color of the front door.
Paint was only $8.55--- it was Dot com by Kwal and I did it in a satin finish.
The vinyl letters on the door were only $5.00 and what a nice difference they make compared to the plastic letters that were under the light in the before shot.
BEFORE
AFTER
The wreath on the front door was an ordinary twig wreath with some fall color and ribbon.
Of course the pumkins really add to the fall theme, and the flowers some real happy color!
It was so fun to do.
Thanks, Andrea for letting us come and have fun with your front porch!
I am joining the Fall Makeovers at Between Naps on the Porch

I will post the video from the show with all
of the details in my next post.

One last look at how some of your Christmas decorations really do add to the cozy feeling in your home.

Even a few oranges with cloves, makes for a great Natural Element.
So as Christmas winds down and we put all of our Christmas decorations away, remember how some of these ideas will work great any time of year.
