Christmas decorate with me on a budget | Christmas decor 2021 | Front porch Makeover on a budget! |

0:15 santa the city is covered in snow tonight where did my love go hello everyone welcome back to my channel so today's video is going to be a front porch christmas decorate with me on a budget i spent less than a hundred dollars to transform the space from fall to winter i was gonna say christmas but winter you know what i'm saying um but i hope you guys enjoy today's video all right before we get started here's a quick overview of how the front porch looks right now this is what was left over from my fall decor there were some pumpkins that did rot so we've already gotten rid of those and yeah i just need to put all this stuff away and start decorating

1:02 [Music] he's a big one hold up let him get on me yeah oh he's gone all right let him be he made it out he

1:47 escaped jesse oh my god i was trying to scare you and i scared myself [Music] this christmas will be something unreal [Music]

2:42 is all right so now that i have the porch all cleaned up let me show you the christmas decor that i purchased so everything was from walmart except this rug i believe it was around 988 at lowe's but they were a lot prettier than the ones at walmart so i went ahead and grabbed it while i was there but the best find was this pack of two trees for 25.88 i will link them below and hopefully you can find them in stock because i feel

3:29 like for that price they worked perfectly on either side of the door so i will be doing a quick little diy for the front porch and that is spray painting the base of these little trees black just so they don't look as cheap i felt like the gold color especially in person like right here on camera they don't look too bad but in person they looked plastic and look cheap so i decided to spray paint them just a matte black to give it like a little bit of a higher end look on a budget of course and the spray paint that i'm using was just left over from a little project that my husband did i believe it is the rust-oleum brand i could be wrong i didn't even look at the can i honestly just grabbed it and started spray paintings but it's just a matte black any spray paint will work

4:16 by the way you're going to hear me make a joke at the end of the video about this leaf in my hair that decided to tag along the entire video i had to like share it at the end so stay tuned for that i was dying laughing when i watched this video back and saw that a leaf was literally in my hair the whole time i filmed this video [Music]

5:04 all right so from this angle of me filming you can see that there is a post right in front of the front door which makes it really awkward to decorate the space because if it just kind of makes a little tight walkway basically so i tried to put the rocking chair on the other side but i just felt like it looked so awkward so i put it back and we're just gonna deal with it for now i thought about replacing the post and just moving it however this isn't our forever home and that's a big expensive project and i just i'm not ready to take that on unless we know that we're gonna stay here for a very long time i just feel like the post needs to just stay put but anyway i'm gonna go ahead and grab these rugs that i purchased and lay them down by the way this is the first time i've ever done a layered rug like this where i purchased a rug to layer

5:51 and man this thing has already gotten so dirty i mean within a day it was dirty so i wouldn't recommend if you do have young kids or if your feet tend to get dirty because those like little white squares right there at the front are already filthy so just a heads up i mean i believe it can be washed but it just seems like an extra chore that you have to do you might be better off just buying like an all black one or something like that but this one that has the white on it probably wasn't the best idea i should have listened to my sister-in-law because she said it and i was like i have to have it it's so cute it just goes with the little buffalo check theme that i was kind of pulling from but anyway now i'm gonna set up these little trees now that they are dry i'm just going to separate the little stems as best as i can

6:37 um the tree is a little thin just a heads up they're not like expensive i mean for 25 for two of them you get what you pay for basically so they're cute though i think even just how they are i think they look really nice but i did decide to add a little bit of pine cones to them just so it would pull from the wreath from the front door that i got from walmart as well and it would also fill them so they didn't look so plain i also got this bow from walmart too and i believe it was like 2.88 and i just liked how it looked with the rug that i layered i just think it looks really cute so i went ahead and attached that to the stem right on the wreath

7:32 i'm walking around feeling free thinking about what's happened to me from july until now i don't know where don't know how lately i've come to realize that i can't see it in your eyes so it's true i'm so glad you feel it too to me it's perfectly clear we're falling in love

8:27 we started something this thing that we got grew stronger each day we're together [Music] to me it's perfectly clear we're falling [Music] [Applause] [Music] in store for us i'm now going to go ahead and hang up these really inexpensive wreaths that i found they were 2.88 a piece and i had these command hooks that i just had already so i used those to attach it to the window so i didn't have to try to put in like a screw in

9:14 the wall or anything like that and i like how these just kind of made the front porch kind of look all cohesive together without them it was just a little too plain so i went ahead and added these to both of the front windows [Music] [Applause] all right so the porch is completely done let me show you a quick before and after [Music]

10:11 all together history [Music] all right the porch is done it looks so cute i love it super simple and exactly the look i was going for i didn't want to like do too too much color because i we have some like blow up things that we put on the front port or like in this front little area and those are super colorful along with our christmas lights so i just wanted to keep it super simple up here and affordable too because i feel like everything the prices are so high with everything we're trying to really be careful how much we're spending but um for those trees being only 25

10:58 it's not bad and they're really cute do you like the christmas trees yeah i do too they're cute we are gonna get a bigger one for inside the house okay okay um but it looks super cute and cozy and warm and like a rustic which is the look i was going for so i'm happy with it i hope you guys enjoyed watching today's video i know it's a short one but i just wanted to share with you a quick little decorate with me it's been a while since i've posted a quick video like this and you okay i really like these types of videos they're some of my favorites so

11:45 thanks again for watching bye y'all y'all i filmed this whole video with a leaf in my hair [Music] it must have flown up into the air when i was blowing off the porch and it just like nuzzled in there and i was eating lunch watching the footage back and i was like what is that on my head it's just a leaf no worries [Music] you
