Christmas Address

For some reason I am into having our address numbers worked into some decor on our front porch.  Maybe it's because I have been practicing our address with Addie.. or maybe since it is our address :) It's probably really because I never sent out an address update and everyone keeps asking me for it.. sorry!   who knows!
I liked the wreath that featured our 513 for the fall.  I decided to use the same numbers and make a Christmas display.. but for once.. I did not want to have a wreath (gasp!)  I didn't have a plan for what I was going to do but I walked out of Michael's with a few clearance items to go with the red sparkly ribbon I got at Walmart (seriously,  it was sparkly, cheap, and a big spool.). I went home and made and hung this during nap time. That never happens.. doing it all in one day.  I felt so accomplished.  But a short nap time it was and I didn't get to post it then.  So here I am... a week or more later.

You may want to throw something like this together if you have a Christmas gathering coming up.. the numbers are large making it easy to see from the road and at night.  :)

I added a coat of white to brighten up the G.  I also sprinkled it with some extra fine glitter. 



and hung it up over the start of the front porch decorating
