Mailbox Makeover for Fall

Seasonal decorating at our house always means that our mailbox is gonna get a new look. The way I look at it is, if you want attention, start at the curb!

So, with a mix of white mums, fall leaves and white pumpkins a draping was made.

And then out of  hiding, in a closet, a little corn husk owl was found.

So, I attached him to the door with some good ol' duct tape.
I think that he added a really cute touch.



Just a random close up of our lamp post and house marker :)

 For more ideas you can check out my past mailbox do's...just type mailbox in my search bar and you'll find them!

Hoping this post might give you some ideas to do some mailbox decorating of your own....let me know if you do!

Love, Hugs and Kisses,

Home Sweet Home Mailbox

Our old mailbox was old and broken and recently needed replacing.You might already know me well enough to know that I like to start at our mailbox with curb appeal. 


It makes me and our mail lady smile and hopefully, our neighbor's do, too!

 I sprayed our new mailbox grey to match the trim and door on our house. The design was stenciled and hand painted to make it special.

I planted moon flowers in with my lamb's ears hoping that they will grow up the post and add to the faux greens and morning glories that I attached for a seasonal display.
This look will keep me happy until spring.

I took these pics, several weeks ago, when our azaleas were in full bloom.

We have lots more bushes in a mix of colors that are behind our house...I think we have over 30 in total!

We had a hot pink mailbox at our home in NY....our gardens were mostly pink, purple and white.
If you like gardens and want to peek at some of what we had I have an old page with pics here.

The next few pics are of more mailbox looks that I've posted on in the past. Use my search bar and you can get another look.












I wish more people would decorate their mailbox...it makes such a lovely roadside statement!
