  1. Kierste,
    I don’t even know where to start! These are all great projects!
    I’m working on getting more mileage out of my patriotic decorations by displaying them on Memorial Day Weekend and July 4th. I’m sure this is not a new idea to you or many of your readers, but it was new to me – – and makes your timing these awesome projects just perfect! Thanks!

    1. Yes, I totally agree! I wanted to post these now, so everyone would have plenty of time to get them up by Memorial Day. I keep my patriotic decor up all summer, and I love it! Thanks so much for the comment, and for stopping by!!! xoxo
