Vintage Christmas Decor on the Back Porch



I decorate the front porch to spread Christmas cheer  to our neighbors and  friends  driving by,   but I decorate the back porch for me and H.      We are able to enjoy the back porch decor from our recliners in the family room.  


The back porch Christmas decor is pretty during the day........


but it is magical in the evening!


The weather is still mild here in Eastern New Mexico,   so I am able to have the doors open to the porch during the day.


We can still sit on the porch in the early evening if we wrap up in a blanket.   


Some of the back porch  Christmas decor are family heirlooms and a few are recent purchases.  


I got the bid on the vintage lit Merry Christmas sign at the auction a couple of years ago.       


I have a couple of the Santa and sleighs........mother had one and so did I


Same story with the standing Santa,      we both had one.


Santa and Mrs. Claus both belonged to my mother.


The red truck pillow covers are a new purchase from Amazon.......


Our home has a very open floor plan.       I can see from my recliner in the family room.......all the way thru the sun room.......and out onto the back deck.



 

It's beginning to cool down outside,    so it's time to close the doors and come inside for the evening.      That's okay though,    I can still enjoy the lights from my recliner.....lol!
