A Tour of Our Home: Front Porch Makeover (Before & After)

I really hope I'm not the first homeowner to admit that decorating the exterior of our home was not at the top of my to-do list when we first moved in.  There were SO many things that Kevin and I wanted to do inside of our house that the outside ended up getting neglected for the first seven months we lived here.  Granted I did do a little decorating for the holidays (you can see my monster window silhouettes here and the Grinch lawn ornament here), but wasn't able to put up anything meant for the long-term.  Until now, that is.
