You know, you only get one chance to make a great first impression. This applies to your home too. Many times we are so concerned about the inside of our homes, we forget the front porch or front door is actually the first thing people see of our home. So dress it up for the seasons and let it speak a warm welcome to your visiting friends and neighbors!
Welcome to my front porch... please excuse the crooked picture, I'm a decorator not a photographer :)
Color of paint: Sherwin Williams Red Barn SW7591
Just a close up view of some of the porch decor ( The bench was a do it yourself project) Please ignore the dust.

Just found your lovely blog and I adore your idea of a welcome stencil on the door..why didn't I think of that???? I guess that is your job as a stager! Off to visit some more and hope to get even more inspired by your lovely ideas!!!
