Summertime Entry Makeover

Cute welcome mat for summer
Summer 2014 Entry
Filled this green lantern with white sand and a citronella candle
Succulent planter raised on bricks
 I made over the entry to my apartment for summer. I wanted a super cool Chilewich Shag doormat in Citron, which has beautiful yellow green colors and soft grays, but I loved this flip flop welcome doormat too, it's fun, and the price was right. I think it looks pretty nice.
I enjoy sitting on the bench cooling off after I run. I was planning to take sand from the beach for my lantern but someone told me that is a crime, and my mom said that's full of bacteria and could get nasty, so I ended up using some fancy white designer sand that she bought for me. I got a little overenthusiastic and overfilled the lantern; I think I will empty a lot of it out so the candle is sitting more at the bottom of the lantern, more like a candle in a pumpkin.
