Outdoor Christmas Decorating Ideasfor Your Front Porch and MoreWhen thinking about your outdoor Christmas decorating ideas, begin with your front porch or front door.Advertisements Advertisements Use it as the focal point for your decorations to create a special holiday theme - for example Santa's workshop, a winter wonderland, or the Nativity. Outdoor Christmas decorations range from very simple to full-out elaborate. Dave and I prefer simple but we also appreciate the elaborate lights and decorations in our town. Garland and Red Bows

Yvonne's Christmas Cabin is Magical!If I were to live in a log cabin, I know I would truly love having a porch like Yvonne has. This year she decorated simply with greenery, snowflakes, pine cones and an old-fashioned cart that and it's just wonderful.Yvonne explained about the red cart: "We bought it out of a barn in west Tennessee about 24 yrs ago... It's been in our yard ... and porch.. serving all kind of purposes. Once used it for a wedding for party favors of Apples and pie recipes!" 
Such an iconic log cabin porch
