4th of July hanging board and porch

This is what you will see, if you come to my house right now!  

American flag shutter

 Remember my Noel shutter?

 Well, I filpped it over and painted the back white

Then this is what I did next:)

Stars and Stripes pillow wrap

Remember my earlier post about making these pillow wraps.  I used the same idea here.  I freezer paper stenciled the star and stripe words on the burlap.  Then sewed the star fabric on the edges. Tie it on a pillow and your done!

Wood floor America star

My brother install's hard wood floors. I have him collect any left over pieces.  I glue and piece the boards together.  Then use them for crafts.  I used 3 floor slats, then painted a star and added white vinyl over top.

God bless America

Saw this cute sign on Pinterest.  Knew I needed one. Really quick 20min project.

4th of july banner for the coffee filter wreath.

Yes, I plan on making banners for every season for this wreath.  Here is the newest one!

Porch rules

Simply paint a board any size and add vinyl.  I made this one for an auction.  I plan on making myself one in bright colors for my back porch.

How to make your own Recipe or picture holder stand

Let's ride Bike

Loving all the cute bike decor on pinterest.  Here a board that I stenciled a bike and lets ride on to.  I thought it was so fitting for summer.  I love how it hangs on my little fence.

Moroccan Chest

I found this great Chest at a yard sale for $10.  I was going to leave it how it was.  The colors weren't really working with what I already had in my family room.  I taped off and painted it purple:)  Then went over the yellow lines with a gold sharpie.  Still trying to decide if I am going to add a design in the boxes.

Retired Teacher Gift

My Mom has taught school for the last 20 years.  She Retired at the end of this school year.  This is what I made for her retirement party.  I created the Every Child left behind printable in picmonkey, as well as the Retire card.
