A fun and colorful front stoop for Summer makes the perfect welcome to our home!
A Colorful front stoop
I admit it. I’ve been feeling a little wild and crazy lately. A little unpredictable and extra. I’ve had a little scratch to itch, and that can only mean one thing: I’ve incorporated ALL the bright colors into my summer front stoop. Now, to some this may not feel crazy, but for the pretty neutral and serene palettes I’ve been using, bringing this much color into the mix is just April gone wild. 😉
But that’s not all….I did something else that’s pretty crazy…
I bought a dog this week. Without planning, Without warning. I just up and brought home a new baby!!! Thank goodness I have a forgiving husband who loves dogs…ha!
Meet Harry Hoff! (AKA: “Harry Pupper” / “Harry Bear” / “Hare Bear”….the list goes on and on.
Miss L. and I were on an innocent outing that lead to us visiting a puppy breeder, (I swear we were just going to look), and before you know it, we had another dog. We’ve all fallen completely in love with this little guy. For those wondering, he’s an F1 maltipoo, and he makes the perfect little brother to our 14-year-old cockapoo. (She’s still getting used to him.)
This bright and happy front stoop is the perfect backdrop for Harry’s little puppy shoot. ;). You can find our brightly striped rug here, and a similar heart rug here.
My jewel flower combination looks perfect with all the fun summer colors! (We had a ginormous rainstorm right before I took photos, and the flowers got soaked and wind battered…hence their droopy appearance.)
I see the funniest little pointy-nosed insects sticking their loooong pointers (I’m not a biologist, sorry!) into those purple blossoms. I’m equal parts fascinated and creeped out….ha!
After keeping it rather bland out here for so long, it really is fun to see so much color!
A happy little front stoop for a happy girl, her sweet little puppy, and her reluctant original old gal. 😉
