i’m sure there are many ways, but here’s how we did it…
1. matty and i gathered armloads of branches from the hills near our home. {so fun!}
2. i placed some branches in the urns and tied them with heavy twine.
3. add more branches to fill in gaps
4. stuff paper grocery bags around the sides to stabilize.
5. cover top with rocks (or moss would be so pretty)
6. string lights and ornaments
7. wait for the sun to go down so you can really enjoy the glow!
I love everything about your porch- it’s so warm and inviting! I sent my 2 boys out in the back of our house to find me branches last night, so I could make this! I just need to add lights and ornaments.. thanks for the great idea for us less-creative people! 🙂
I have done something similar and I keep it inside (all year long). We love the glow in the family room at night!
Yours look so inviting! I have also spray painted mine red:-)
Great job guys!
It looks so warm and welcoming.

Really cute! I love how you always include the boys on your fun projects, great way to pass along your creativity!
LOVE, love your porch!! You are so creative!! 🙂
Lisa- you have inspired me to do this tomorrow! Let’s hope the weather cooperates. Love your porch!
I think I could actually do this. I’m craft-challenged, but I might just be able to pull this off. Thanks for sharing more holiday inspiration. I love all of your ideas!
Lisa,
