Our Christmas Front Porch & Holiday Tour of Homes 2019
For the past several years at this time, I have been excited to join a number of my blogger friends as we invite you into our homes all decked out for Christmas! It’s the next best thing to seeing you all in person and the variation of decorating styles is as inspiring as the variation of sweet personalities behind them all! I hope you have already had chance to visit Cindy at The Creativity Exchange as her tour is the stop just before mine! All the other stops will be listed below so you won’t miss a thing!
Our front porch is the first space to be fully decorated and ready for Christmas, and I hope it makes you feel welcome to stop by!
I decided to go with a “Home for the Holidays” theme, and these little wooden houses from Target were just right for adding to my basic cedar wreaths! (If they don’t have these at your Target, similar ones are at World Market.)
I decided to invest in some faux cedar garland and wreaths this year that I can reuse over and over, and I love it! The mini trees are a mix of old and new, and my little wooden JOY sign was made for me by a friend! (Find her work on on Instagram HERE.)
But you may have already guessed my favorite thing on this Christmas porch is my leopard print layering rug, which is actually not truly a rug, but a heavy weight upholstery fabric I found at Hobby Lobby that I cut and sewed to the size I wanted!
I’ve linked a similar rug and the Home for the Holidays one below if you’d like to shop!
The Merry Christmas sign was a Hobby Lobby find as well, and my blue outdoor rug still works well with the Christmas decor!
I hope you like this year’s version of my styled porch for Christmas! You will not want to miss all my friends and their tours now! The next stop is over to see Annie at Most Lovely Things! And then tune in for the rest of the tours listed below. More of my Christmas decor and my indoor Christmas tour coming soon!!

That is SO SMART what you did with your leopard rug! I love it!! I’m sure that will help a lot of people. Your front porch is so so so pretty. It would be such a welcoming spot for your guests. Speaking of which, when can I come? LOL!
