Little Houses Made Of Ticky Tacky
Is this a stoop? Or just a front door / entry? I don't know. What I do know is that this sad sad entry stoop was plain and uninspired. I live in a cookie cutter neighborhood. Every time I drive down the street to my house I hear that song. It goes: "Little houses, on a hillside, little houses made of ticky tacky, little houses on a hillside, little houses in a row....." It was sung by Malvina Reynolds and is called "Little Houses". It was the theme song to the show "Weeds". Anyways, this space needed some personality. I added a flower pot that I've had loitering in the backyard. But, most importantly I added this awesome wreath!
Made with a dollar store foam 8" wreath and paper pinwheels. I just used straight pins and some hot glue to attach the pinwheels. It only took 2 hours or so. The paper pinwheels took a while to cut and fold. Wish it was bigger, but hey... it was what I had on hand.
I'm thinking lots more wreaths for different seasons is in order. Don't you just love color in a boring space? I know I do. I'm happy every time I walk up those cookie cutter stairs now.
