A New Door

I scoured the internet to find something I liked for our front door. Like...a wreath? But if you’ve ever looked for a wreath, they are NOT cheap. I decided that I was feelin’ crafty and wanted to make something for our front door.

So I found a tutorial on how to make a big letter for your front door. Isabelle and I shopped for a big paper mache’ letter at Joann’s Fabric...which is the only place you can get them, I think. They are about $8. We then bought two bags of Sheet Moss. It’s a bit messy, but you can just cut it up and glue it on with hot glue. Each bag was about $8, as well.



After that we glued a ribbon on (actually with Gorilla Glue, since the hot glue ribbon kept coming loose from the heat between the door and the screen door). Then we hung it from a wreath hanger! Wa la!

And while the girls were gone at Oma’s last week, Conrad painted the front door, and I put a vinyl “Welcome” on it. I rounded out our front porch with some new red cushions for curb appeal. Love how it turned out!
