The weather has been unbelievably warm here in SC. I have loved being outside!
It is hard to believe, but I have some of the most beautiful roses in full bloom.
It may not feel like it, but it sure looks like its Christmas!
What a favorite spot to watch the winter fishermen.
I made the white candy cane from some foam, wire and nubby yarn. Hot glue the ends...easy, but I only managed to make one!
I wing it most of the time, so tutorials are kind of funny to me. As you can see, I am no perfectionist. I sketched out a star onto some burlap, cut, sewed, stuffed and hung...easy.
Perfectly imperfect for this outdoor tree!
I made this last year using drop cloth, full sheet labels and twine. I cut the fabric the same size as the full sheet label and ran it through my printer.
Merry Christmas! Burrr...the temperature is dropping tonight!

Love the stars!
OMG, what a beautifully decorated porch! I love the linens on the swing. I wouldn't mind just sitting there and enjoying the loveliness of it all.

I love it. It looks so pretty but also so inviting - the perfect combination!
Oh I just love porches and your's is so welcoming! And I love your star!
The weather has been so warm here in NC, that I haven't put much Christmas Decor outside. The ferns and other summer plants are taking over the places where the decorations usually go! And if they live until Christmas, that's okay too! LOL!
Your rustic looking porch decor is so cute! Looks warm and inviting! Love the burlap star!
I love how you decorated your porch swing! It's so rustic and inviting. That fish pillow in the middle is adorable.

Love your porch decor! Yes, I live in South Carolina and the weather has been wonderful. I am not use to having this type of weather where I was originally from in PA....So I am glad that I moved to the South....and loving it!!!
