A simple wreath

I'm not a big "holiday decorator" ...

not because I don't like it ... 

I do like it - a lot actually. 

It's just that I'm lazy --

and hate to take it down.

So it ends up staying WAY too long.

and since its embarrassing to have a Nutcracker on your shelf in April --

I just save myself the embarrassment and do nothing.

My poor, holiday-decoration-less children ...

 what will they tell their therapist in thirty years?

but back to the story --

Our door needed something.

So I added a little paint (more on that later!)

Then it needed something more. 

But nothing too seasonal that would NEVER get changed. 

 I needed something that would last throughout spring/summer.
I'll work on a new one for fall/winter.

(I think I can handle switching up my wreaths twice a year, haha)

So this is what I came up with --

It was very simple! I just wrapped a wreath in cut strips of sheet moss ($8.99 JoAnn, use a coupon!) and attached it with hot glue! Then I took a paper mache "A" (Hobby Lobby, $2.47) and covered it with twine that I already had on hand. :)

 So that's it. :)
 I love the texture of the moss and twine together.

and I kind of love the rustic simplicity.

but what I love most is that I don't have to change it for awhile.

I'm not quite done with this front door makeover - so stay tuned.

So, what's hanging on your front door?

Are you good about decorating for every holiday?
