Front Door Ideas

Tuesday to do... Front Door Decorating Ideas

This past weekend I was able to take a mini trip with my family up north, I saw the most beautiful yet simple front doors and then I came home and wow does our area need a front door make-over. Which lead me into giving some friendly tips on making a front door welcoming and beautiful!

The over used Door Decoration

Tip #1. When hanging a decoration on your door don't just use what everyone is using. The over used door decoration is way over done and it doesn't say anything about your style or your creativeness. I hope that in the photos below I have given you some fresh and new ideas on creative decorations for your front door, it is the first impression to your home.

Tip #2: Since paper is always in and easy I picked this photo from Martha Stewart.com it is real branches with paper flowers on it. I think this would add a beautiful spring look just by adding a ribbon around the top and letting it hang upside down freely on your door. Plus this would be a great project for the kids as well!

Tip #3: Bring freshness right to your door. The daffodil is a beautiful flower one that for sure will add warmth and charm to any front door. This technique can be found on Martha Stewart.com

Tip #4: This is a great front door idea for those that have an apartment or a narrow door and can't handle a wreath or larger accessory. This project is made by taking a place mat and wrapping flowers (I think Hydrangeas would even look better)and then adding a ribbon to hang by. What a simple creative project that would be.

Tip #5: Lettering I love the use of lettering and this is one that I have used before. You can find all sorts of lettering on line and also make it yourself out of Foam Board if you need a lighter version or Wood if you need it to with stand the weather. This look is all around classy and for those that are tired of using flowers this is a nice change.

Tip #6: The good ole stand by round floral wreath. This can be found on Martha Stewart.com and I would love to see the monogram lettering in black and I would actually attach it right on the door.
