On my front door we have a really nice wreath (that I made) & for Christmas, since I have a December birthday, my standing birthday present is a beautiful fresh wreath for our front door. And on the porch I have 2 planters, that have flowers from April til Oct. then in Oct I decorate them with pumpkins, mums & gourds. I haven't come up with anything that I really like in those planters for the Christmas season.
I don't have a fireplace, so therefore no mantle to decorate.
