{ CHRISTMAS PORCH }

i don't like to spend a lot on christmas decor...
living in new england we have so many pretty greens right in our own back yards
or a little sneak into the woods!







    
     my favorite porch bargains:    
  1. my boys old rain boots sprayed red - $0
  2. old bike - free side of the road - $0
  3. antique wheel barrel was a gift from a sweet neighbor - $0
  4. old skates from the flea this summer - $2
  5. greens from the woods - $0
  6. 30 ft of roping from home depot - $12
      total spent for the porch $14...
      not to shabby ; )
      can't wait to see all of your holiday decorating!
