I thought I would share an idea I had for my front doors. We have double doors and there's not enough room on either side of them to place urns or anything decorative, and they just looked bare to me. Last summer I planted two Confederate Jasmine plants beside the doors and trained them to grow up a honeysuckle vine, and I'm so pleased with the way they turned out ...
They have completely covered the vine now and were in full bloom when I took these pictures last month.
I leave the baskets on the doors year-round and add seasonal flowers. The vine also has tiny white lights entwined in it which add a festive look for holidays and parties. This picture was taken last Christmas ...

Hi Janie! This is probably one of the best outdoor decorating ideas I've seen. Every year when I take down the christmas garland I think how plain the door looks. I have to borrow this idea and find a way to make it work. Sooo pretty!!!! I've been trying to post pics since Sunday night but can't get into my blog??? Have a great day - Jeannette
Wow, what a touch you have with your green thumb! This door is amazing and I adore the lights. Thanks for sharing!

A couple of questions for ya! Did you plant the vines in pots or are they in the ground? I can't tell by the pictures.
Also, would jasmine work in Indiana?
It's simply beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
