Please take a moment and look at these beautiful seasonal photos from BHG. There is not one holiday display I wouldn't use in my own outdoor spacesand front door area. Can't wait to show some of these holiday decorating ideas to our clients. Dress up your front porch and yard with these holiday outdoor decorating ideas that last from the first days of fall through the New Year.


Winter Wall Arrangement

Winter Wall Arrangement

With a little help from Mother Nature, even outdoor walls will welcome holiday guests. Line a wire wall container with moss; fill with florist's foam. This beautiful outdoor arrangement happily overflows with Fraser fir, burgundy-dyed eucalyptus, purple caspia, winterberry holly, and poppy pods.


Juniper and Branches Christmas Container

White twigs rise from a mound of juniper, making a small container stand tall. Snowy-white Mitsumata branches lead a striking profile and contrast with the red pot and greenery. Embellish with artificial snow, pinecones, small ornament balls, and a faux cardinal.

Editor's Tip: Go out on a figurative limb with redtwig dogwood, birch, or spray-painted twigs.

Pinecone and Ornament Garland

Pinecone and Ornament Garland

Create a striking and festive look for your holiday front door with this pretty garland. Customize a purchased pinecone garland with ornaments that coordinate with your door color, using florist's wire to secure the ornaments. Position the garland outside the door frame, and secure at the top and along the sides with easy-to-remove self-adhesive hooks or brick clips. Finish the warm entry with white pillar candles set inside tall glass lanterns adorned with holiday berries.

Ornament and Pine-Filled Urn

Ornament and Pine-Filled Urn

Instead of hanging an evergreen wreath on your front door, use it to liven up a plain white urn. Dress up the decoration by setting lime-green and pink ornament balls on top.

Front Porch Holiday Planter

The simplest of natural touches on your front porch can create a festive welcome for holidayguests. Choose a spacious galvanized pail to house an assortment of fresh cuttings, such as fountain grass, golden Hinoki cypress, and glossy-leaf Oregon grape holly, that will last all season.

Sugar Pinecone Potted Container

A cardinal perched atop a giant pinecone from a sugar pine makes this outdoor holiday decoration pop. At the base of the cone, spruce sprigs resting on a bed of moss add the perfectseasonal touch. The design complements a potted, compact "Blue Star" juniper accented with pinecones.

Wintry Hanging Basket

Wintry Hanging Basket

Light up your front porch for the season with glowing orbs displayed in hanging baskets. Frost a basket with spray paint, add a nest of greens, and top with an indoor lamp globe. Hot-glue felt snowflakes to the globe and add a balled-up strand of battery-powered lights to finish the decoration.

Pinecone and Birch Winter Containers

White birch logs and evergreen branches add a festive touch to a tall garden container, an idealholiday decoration for your front porch. A container of large pinecones offsets the tall decoration, and a small string of lights and a faux red bird finish the holiday display.

Icy Holly-and-Cranberry Candleholder


Icy Holly-and-Cranberry Candleholder
Encase holly sprigs and pyracantha berries in ice that you mold in a flexible plastic ice cream bucket. Create a candleholder in the center of the ice with a recycled 2-liter bottle. Fill the gap between the two containers with branches and berries, then fill with water; freeze. Give it a traditional look by placing a red pillar candle in the center, and pose the finished arrangement in a wire basket.

Blue Spruce Twig Container

This cheery woodland-inspired container extends the season's festive mood to your outdoor spaces. A store-bought boxwood ball tops this arrangement of blue spruce twigs, offering a fresh alternative to the usual upright designs. Perch a faux bird on the boxwood ball, and scatter pinecones for easy embellishments.
