More Christmas decorating

Nothing like 34 degree weather today to motivate me to finish my decorating for Christmas. This weekend I worked on my new flocked tree, redecorating it more than once.

Here’s a quick preview:

Still have some things to do before finishing it, such as make the linen table shirt to hide the 30 “ high X 30 “diameter round table it’s sitting on. I post a full picture it soon.

And the last thing I put up is my front door decorations. I don’t like to advertise to my neighbors how early I put everything up, so I wait on this. And that’s a joke since they can see all the inside lights in the 7 different rooms that are now twinkling away.

Here’s may front door in 2008 all in red:

Here’s last year in red and lime green:

And here’s a sneak peek at what I’m working on today for the front door:

I do love the cold weather while decorating outdoors. Makes me feel like I’m back on the Cape!

It all looks great and you do such a great job on your front door! I wish I had better weather to deal with here on Long Island, but the front of my house gets beat up when it's windy, raining or snow {whatever Mother Nature decides on} and I'm afraid I'll either lose stuff or have things damaged. I keep it pretty simple in recent years since I don't have the energy to go running down the street after my decorations anymore! : ) Next house I'm hoping for a covered porch.
