BACK PORCH CHRISTMAS DECOR

Call me crazy, but our back porch gets decorated for every season. LOL
We live in Texas, so, for the most part, our weather is very mild and we get to enjoy our porch all through out the year.
Last Christmas Day, we had coffee and dessert on our back porch in short sleeves and flip-flops! LOL
I do enjoy very much putting decorations out there since it is another one of our most frequently gathering spots.
It has been raining like forever, so I did not do much this year, just added a few touches.
The sun is finally out, so here is what the porch looks like.

I went with the little red birds theme.
Remember back in October, I made some pillows with my left over drop cloth from when I made the outdoor curtain. Here is the link to that post:

I made a floral centerpiece and added some little red birds to it







Here are my "homemade" pillows







I added a little garland and candles to the table




Made some bows for my wall candle holders and put some l red birds picks on the curtain's tiebacks.








I made a different pillow for the bench






And green and red bird houses on the table next to the bench with a pot full of poinsettias.







I hope you enjoyed this small tour of our poch.
We are hoping this cooler weather goes away soon so we can start enjoying our back porch again.
Have fun decorating!
