It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas here at Storybook Cottage. Today I am sharing Outdoor Christmas Decor To Adore with an evergreen entry.
Outdoor Christmas Decor To Adore
I am so happy to be joining the Christmas Porches and Door Decor hosted by Amber of Follow The Yellow Brick Home. If you are coming over from Our Southern Home I am so happy you’re here! Christy’s porch is truly inspiring!
We have a fairly small entry but I love to make it feel as welcoming as possible.
The sweet little bench Mr. Decor made makes a perfect perch for seasonal bits of bliss.
Since the entry is not fully covered I have to make sure everything can withstand rain or snow.
The elements are a bit eclectic but somehow seem to work.
An antique German sled is joined by some brown paper packages tied up with strings.
Two mismatched greenery swags were wired together and topped with some brass bells and a bow.
I found the two sets of bells last year on an after Christmas clearance. The second set of bells merrily jingle every time the door opens. (And an angel gets their wings!)
Of course, the real magic happens in the evening when everything is all lit up.
I am so glad that you stopped by. Up next is A Daily Cup Of Mrs. Olson. The talented Jann always creates the most amazing displays and projects.
Do you decorate the outside of your home too?

Laura, I adore all of your fresh greenery and your beautiful door color, too! Excited to be joining the tour with you! Blessings, Cecilia @My Thrift Store Addiction
Your front door looks so pretty and inviting! The soft green of the door with the deep green of all the greenery and white blossoms is perfect. How sweet is the little sled and the brown paper packages. The little snowflakes and pinecones are lovely accents.
Everyone arriving on your doorstep will enjoy this lovely display. Perfect!
I love the Christmas touches to your front porch, Laura! All of the pinecones added in are such great accents. But my absolute favorite are those bells on your swag! So glad to join you on this porch hop! Happy Holidays!
Your front entryway is beautiful. I love the color of your front door! Your entryway is so welcoming and give me so much Christmas spirit.
OK….. now I’m inspired to decorate our front door. I might even wrap the door with a lit garland. Your’s is so beautiful!
Precious. I love your paperwhites. Perfect timing on their blooms. The bench is darling. So are the bells.
Your porch looks so elegant and inviting Laura. I need to find some of those bells. So cute!!
Laura,
Your porch may be small, but is filled with beautiful Christmas decor. And, I spotted a white wooden snowflake that I recognize. 🙂 It goes very well with all your other snowflakes mixed in your garland. The paperwhites add a nice bright spot of white to the greens. Of course, I started hearing Julie Andrews singing Some of My Favorite Things when I read, “brown paper packages tied up with strings.”
Merry Christmas, dear friend,
Judith
Your porch looks so pretty! I love your paperwhites and all of the snowflakes and pine cones that you used. Your front door is very inviting to guests and if I lived near you, I would crane my neck to see all of the details as I walked or drove by your home.
Love, love, love your entryway! The door swag is gorgeous. I love the greenery in the vintage watering can. The snowflakes are the perfect finishing touch and brings everything together. So happy to be hopping with you!
I love your color scheme, Laura, and the natural look to your decorations. Absolutely stunning and certain to bring many smiles!
It’s lovely, Laura. I do love evergreens. The packages look great and those bells were a terrific find. So welcoming!
….these are a few of my favorite things! What a delightful porch and entry. I love your use of fresh greenery, it looks so pretty against your rustic brick. I also love your rustic bells , they are just wonderful!
Thank you for hopping with us this week dear friend!
Merry Christmas!
I love the fresh green look, Laura! And it’s all so pretty with the brick backdrop. Green’s my favorite color and I love all the hues together, just like in nature. Such a calm and sparkly setting you’ve created!
So many pretty things to look at on your pretty porch. Love the greenery, paperwhites and those “brown paper packages tied up with string” make me want to sing!
This combination of rustic and refined is definitely one of my favorites, Laura! I love your greenery around the door and how you incorporated it with your entry table. All the eclectic bits you chose go together really well and makes this entire space feel inviting. Your sled is amazing and I love the bells too. It’s all really pretty and the twinkling lights put it over the top! Hugs, CoCo

Laura, it all just perfect! I love the mixture of new and old, and the bells are the icing on the cake!

Your home looks beautiful at Christmas and that door at night is fabulous.
I think my favorite part is the door decor. I’m into bells this year and yours are so cute.
I look forward to seeing more of your Christmas decor.
Just catching up, and I am so glad I didn’t miss your front porch. So pretty. I love the sleigh and your beautiful swag on the front door is amazing too. Su pretty and inviting.
I love the wreath with the bells!! It is so pretty. Love the sled as well! So sorry I’m late to visit, this week has been super busy! Angelina @ Petite Haus
Oh Laura, your porch is just beautiful! I love how you style d he bench…what a pretty display. It has such a French Country look. I’m sorry I am so late commenting. My youngest has been very sick with the flu this week. It has been so much fun being on this tour with you. Merry Christmas!!!
These ideas are adorable!! I wouldn’t leave the parcels outside my door however, someone would run off with them for sure!! Thank you for the inspiration xx Maria
I’m loving that swag and those belles! Also the sled. I’m sorry to say that my sled didn’t make it out this year:( You’ve created a warm and welcoming holiday porch! xo Kathleen
