Hey guys! I hope you have been enjoying our Christmas home tour posts {you can find the previous ones here and here if you missed them}. I am kind of doing things backwards and ending the tours with our front porch…
Today I am participating in a week long Christmas blog hop with Town and Country Living and The Everyday Home.
Throughout the week we will be sharing some wonderful bloggers’ Christmas rooms with a different room being highlighted each day. Be sure to check back daily as the links at the bottom of the post will be updated as we go along. Today we are obviously starting with the front porch…
Our Christmas porch has a bit more of a rustic feel than the rest of the house, but I love being able to do different styles in different areas of our home. I like to use a lot of fresh greenery on the porch as it lasts a lot better than it does in the house and I miss that fresh greenery smell now that we no longer have a real Christmas tree. I made the DIY Christmas swag wreath way back at the end of October and it is still going strong.
I added some more fresh greenery with these rustic hanging baskets that are hanging on either side of the porch.
The trees on either side of the door were dressed simply with some berry garlands, DIY snowy pinecones, and a few simple ornaments including these DIY sweater star ornaments.
It has been extremely rainy around here this week so we still haven’t had a chance to add in all of our lights yet. I’ll have to take a couple of photos to update the post once that is done – everything looks so much prettier all lit up!
I picked up the sled and the Sleighrides sign at a local vintage market this year. Some greenery, the cobbed pipe, and a plaid scarf top the sled off nicely.
I have a little sleigh on the other side of the porch as well. This one I filled up with some greenery, some sleigh bells, and some large ornaments.
The lanterns on either side of the door are from Decor Steals.
I made the Christmas tree farm sign over the door using a stencil from Funky Junk Interiors. I actually have another project that I am playing around with it on too – just not sure when I’m going to be able to finish it up!
I hope you enjoyed the little tour. For more front porch ideas, check out the links below and follow along through the week as new rooms are added!

Jenn, I love your front porch full of vintage finds. The cob pipe is the most clever idea!
Jennifer @ Town and Country Living says
Love your Tree Farm sign over the door! My grandpa owned a Christmas tree mini farm and I loved visiting it (in both the summer and winter!). All your touches are pretty – can’t believe that swag is still going strong since October! Thanks for joining the tour, Jennifer!
