I suggest you choose a focal point and concentrate your decorating efforts there. Where will you get the most bang for your buck? What do you see many times a day? After all, the reason we decorate is for our personal enjoyment so let’s put it in a place of prominence to enjoy often!
The photos I am sharing are from Mary Lou’s garden in a southern California RV park. She chose to feature “Mr. Potts” a decorative man made of flower pots.

Each season Mr. Potts sports a different look. Concentrating her seasonal decorating effort simplifies the decision making process. It’s out front in an area she and her neighbors can easily enjoy.
Decide where you want to concentrate your efforts. Pick a focal point and work from there. Happy decorating!
