Festive FARMHOUSE

BY JESSIE YOUNT
PHOTO BY BRET GUM

When revamping your home this Christmas, deck every hallway, nook and cranny to celebrate the season throughout your home. Stick with what you know about farmhouse style; you can never go wrong when you aim for warmth and simplicity. Consider balance and color above all an inviting environment to entertain and play.

Porch Statement

Decorate your front porch to make a lasting impression on your guests, neighbors and passersby. Dress up yearround furniture with complementary accessories, such as seasonal pillows and throws and personal mementos, like ice skates or a tray filled with candles and mugs. Surround your front steps with vibrant poinsettias and adorn your trim with garlands to bring an al fresco touch to the entrance of your home. Finally, add a hint of farmhouse style into the mix by using wood textures and plaid patterns to play off the colorful décor.
