Today I’ve teamed up with my friend Jen from Migonis Home and Wayfair to share another part of my Christmas home tour with you! Today I’ll be sharing a few recaps from my tour last week, and sharing with you our front porch and office!

Welcome to our home! It’s hard to believe we had a few inches of snow on the ground for last week’s home tour! This past weekend it almost looked like fall again, if not for the Christmas decor.

For the first time since we’ve lived here, I decided to add garland around our front door – and I absolutely love it! I attached three strands of this Colonial feel-real garland and I was good to go. It looks just as beautiful during the day as it does at night!

Let’s step inside! We’ll explore the hallway, upstairs and other rooms on the main floor tomorrow.

Just around the corner from our front door is my office. The first picture is from last week’s tour, before I decorated the tree in my office. The second shows a peek around the corner with the fully decorated tree!

ENTRYWAY SOURCES:  ‘It Is Well’ Canvas | Buffalo Check Poufs | Narrow Console Table | Buffalo Check Scarf on Chair | Chair | Boots | Boot Socks | Boot Tray | Rug (I use reverse side) | Chandelier | White and Gold Deer Head (similar)

I did something in my office this year that I’ve never done in the past – I went with traditional colors! Historically, I was limiting myself to my DIY artwork colors – blues, aquas, and greens. This year, I whipped up a new, plain/distressed red canvas so that I could play with some new, more traditional Christmas colors!

Last week I also shared a few updates to my guest bedroom, so be sure to check out last week’s home tour post for more pictures and details! I actually was looking at this picture again and just now realized Hawkeye, my little black cat, is hiding out. Bonus points if you can see him!
