Spring Pansy Basket Door Wreath & Planter

It's always welcoming to decorate the front of your home when seasons change and this year is no exception.  Spring was late arriving after a very harsh winter and I took comfort in adding a basket full of pansies to my front door and also putting the first of many flowers into a planter sitting nearby. 

 
The colors are both brightening and calming at the same time.
 
 
 
I added faux pansies to a empty woven basket for this arrangement.
 
 
Pansies are perfect for providing color when the rest of the garden still looks like the gray days of winter. I found these lovelies at Walmart and couldn't resist.  They signal spring has truly arrived, showing off beautiful shades of my favorite color, purple, and appearing to have smiling faces all over.
 
 
 
 
 
What a way to cheer up the garden!
 
 
So how do you decorate your front entry for spring?
 
 
 
 
 
Take a little time to enjoy
Welcoming Spring!

  4. The basket of pansies is so welcoming at your door. Pansies are a winter flower here. I have pulled mine out of the containers. I am ready for some of the bright colors of summer annuals, but a freeze is coming tonight. I wish I had seen your pop-up pansies post before making my Easter cards. They are so cute.

  6. Your entry is so warm looking. Love the basket and the flowers. If I did that at my place. I would have the deer at my door eating the flowers and most likely the basket. Ha ha. Happy Blessed Easter starting Friday.

  11. Pansies say spring to me. The basket on the door is perfect for spring. I had to remove my wreath because of the high winds and blizzard from earlier this week. Hopefully the weather moderates enough for Easter Sunday so I can put it back up.
