January always feels a little funny when it comes to the front door. There are really only a couple of weeks where I need something between Christmas and Valentine’s Day, so I tend to keep it simple. This year I went back to an old favorite, my neutral wooden cross. It feels calm, classic, and just right for this in-between season.

Over on the side door, I have a burlap “W” that was a gift from a friend years ago. It’s another easy, neutral piece that works well all winter long.

But the real stars of this post are my new faux boxwood greenery. My dear friend Ron over at Uptown Acorn sent me the link, and I am officially obsessed.

I misread the description and thought I was ordering two. Imagine my surprise when four showed up on my doorstep. They are sold in sets of two. I almost returned the second set, but then realized I had several empty pots around the house that could use a little bright winter greenery. Considering what I will save over the next few years on pansies that never quite look as good as I hope, I am calling this a win.

And speaking of misreading… The first greenery balls I had in my cart were actually these. I was clicking through the photos on the different options and I thought, “Oh, those are green and fluffy.” I made it all the way to the final checkout screen when the word cannabis jumped out at me. Wait. What?

I quickly went back and realized my error. Those would have provided some very interesting conversations on the front porch and side door.

I’ll be popping my Valentine’s decor out this weekend!
