Back to School Door Decor

Happy August, y’all! I’m sure you know what that means for us in Atlanta: Back to School time. I’ve traded out my summer sea creatures for school busses and apples.

No matter how old the boys get, the big yellow bus is the embodiment of school to me. I know many out there that think we go back way too early. My kids don’t know any different and the schedule has suited them well.

I love to dress up the dogs with ribbons to match each monthly door hanger. Many times I purchase one long length new and then save remnants of other colors to tuck in. I keep the ribbons on the same hanger that I store the door decor on so that nothing gets lost.

The side door has the darling apple hanger for August. I used to leave this up until Halloween but a sweet friend gave me a Georgia Tech burlee so that now goes up in September.

Both the bus and the apple are from Bronwyn Hanahan on etsy. I’ve had most of my Bronwyn Hanahan door hangers for at least five years and all have held up wonderfully.

For those of you heading back in early August, I hope your year gets off to a great start. And, for those still in the middle of summer, ENJOY!! It seems to fly by faster every year.
