I finally got around to putting up some 4th of July stuff. I know it's only a couple of weeks away, but with this colder weather it's almost easy to forget!
Here's our front entry
The flowers and vase are from Rod Works. I love sunflowers for summer!
The America sign is from this site. I raided it last year for 4th of July decorations. I feel like their prices are alright.
The wreath I made last night. I found this tutorial and thought it was a great idea. It doesn't take a whole lot of fabric and it's easy, my kind of decoration!
I cut the fireworks at the bottom there, with the cricut this morning and added some red, blue, and white paper behind them. I still have the file if anyone wants it.
The cute printable that you can't quite see in the corner is from here.
The stacked boxes and bird house garland are from the terrys village site listed above.
And I made a small version of the rag wreath to go around the candle on the table.
I made yet another rag wreath for this area. Eh, I already admitted I'm lazy and all the fabric was already out, why make something else? ;)
I also made this declaration of independence decoration last night. Justin likes it quite a bit. I printed out the declaration, found here, and modge podged it onto a piece of wood. Then I busted out some watercolor paint and used a mixture of brown and black to get the color around the edges. I finished by sanding it a tiny bit and adding a bow. Nice and easy.
I love these flowers, they remind me of fireworks!
Pretty sure most of this stuff was from rod works. Though I have been contemplating taking the other plain white towel I have and adding some appliqued stars...we'll see.
Now it feels like summer around here!

Wow I'm not sure I will ever get around to making that many decorations. Love them all though, especially the rag wreaths!
I really need to be like you. :/ I have been making and buying stuff for fall. I really need to stick with the upcoming holidays. Your stuff always looks awesome!
Okay Jodi, we are building a house and when it's finished you are SO coming over to help me decorate! We should get together with Daurie and whoever else and have craft night once a month, what do ya say?? It would be a fun girls night!
Thanks, I'm glad you liked them!
@Kali, less than a month and I'm there, wahoo!
@Michelle, I actually thought your fall stuff was really cute/spooky, I'd sure have a hard time waiting that long to put it up. I think once September hits though, it's technically fall time ;)
@Ashley, I am all up for a craft night, I think that would be tons of fun. Congrats on the house!! I would love to help decorate!
I'm a fan of the declaration I think that looks awesome! some day I will be cool like you and have time to do all of this stuff...till then I will just look at your stuff and be jealous.
