The other day, I called my mom who still lives in my small hometown south of Buffalo, NY and asked what she was doing. She quickly responded, “I’m going back to pick up some birch branches that I saw on the side of the road yesterday.” Oh? Honestly, I wasn’t surprised to hear this because my mom is awesomely creative and I knew she probably had an idea ready for her side-of-the-road find. The final product was this beautiful rustic plaid Christmas front porch decor with sprigs of fresh spruce, perfect for the chilly and snowy atmosphere!
I have to admit, this is the first time I’ve had my very OWN Christmas tree and I definitely wanted to go all out (because that’s just how I am). Since I live in Florida now, I decided it was necessary to have a coastal Christmas tree. If you know me at all, this should not surprise you by any means.
