RMN 1 - Front Door Valentines Wreaths

Have you ever felt that your home looked perfectly fine, relatively clean, 

until you have a party or event planned and guests coming over?

Then you begin to take notice of 

every little project that needs to be done or completed,

  decor that needs tweaking and updating, 

or that the dust boards suddenly need serious dusting.

Nicks and scratches in doors and moldings that were invisible before are blatantly screaming

for a touch-up of fresh paint.

Maybe I'm "preaching to the choir,"

or maybe I'm the only one ever in this dilemma.

Anyhow, I have a ladies group coming for a meeting at my home in a couple of weeks.

Before then, I'll be busy "Refreshing My Nest!"

Check back if you would like to see my progress.

Nothing big or elaborate planned, just little projects.

At the end of the Refreshing My Nest posts, I'll have a give-away to offer.

A little something to refresh everyone's home.

Refreshing My Nest 1 - Front Door Valentines Wreaths

The first project I tackled, was my front porch.

I never seem to really know what to do with it after Christmas.

Without flowers or ferns (dead of winter) or garlands and wreaths of Christmas,

it gets pretty dull!

To make it more welcoming, I bought two cute Valentine Wreaths at our local Garden Center.

They custom make them in-house, allowing the customer to choose the ribbon combination.

The pansies were purchased at Lowe's Home Improvement, 

 from the Clearance Rack for $4.00 each for a 10"-12" pot.

Couldn't ask for a better color, worked out well! :)

I am debating on spraying the urns black.

The door frames will most likely be painted black in the Spring, also.

Stay tuned for RMN 2 {Refreshing My Nest}!
