Front Door Friday Part Four

Yes, I'm still working on that front porch! Remember how it looked last time...I have to tell you I couldn't live with all this stuff on my front porch- It seriously felt so cluttered (I'm totally OCD so clutter drives me crazy) I wasn't sure what I would decorate with since there really is a big blank space between two of our window- until I found this...
Isn't it fabulous. I picked this up at the benefit sale My Dear Trash sponsored for Leah. I knew this was the artwork I was looking for that blank space. After some sanding, painting, stenciling, distressing and aging here's how she turned out...
I'm not happy with the Herb wagon- It's too small and the color matches the house, but I love my new, There's No Place Like Home sign. Here's a closer look...
If you'd like to see how I hand painted the letters go here. I just love the vintage door knob. Here's a closer look...
I took this off of an old bird house I acquired at the swap in February. The star that used to be here has been moved to one of our gables (I'll show you that when were all done) and the rest of the "Clutter" has been placed on craigslist. I have one more project I can't wait to show you for the front porch- Then we'll do the big reveal. Hope you're enjoying the journey as much as I am. Love, Kelly.
