Oh my goodness! You have SO many great ideas! I like that you show several different styles, from rustic and farm-y to sophisticated—all fun! You make me wish that I had several dozen porches so I could try out a bunch each Christmas! Thanks for collecting and sharing these ideas!

I have been looking everywhere to see what was used to decorate the column. I see that felt was used with to sided tape. I would think everything would get wet and fall off when it rained or snowed. Does anyone have any ideas what could be used other than painting the face and black felt for eyes and felt buttons. Really don’t want my columns. ruined. If u have any suggestions email me at janbishop4@gmail.com. Thanks

Try using Velcro strips. They came in black and white. Usually sticky on one side. Should work for you.
