Having a little fun this week decorating my porch space for the holiday weekend. This the first time I decorated for the 4th of July, usually I just use one them and leave it up all summer, but I decided changing things up a little would be fun.
I grabbed this old king size quilt from my linen closet, perfect fit for the teak bench I must say! I had this wonderful vintage tablecloth pillow sham that had all the right colors.
I gathered up a few coordinating treasures. I forgot I had these colorful Burpee seed mugs tucked in the back of a cupboard. I need to use these this summer, they are perfect for the season. Picked a handful of bachelor buttons (or cornflowers as the farmers here call them)

One of my favorite display pieces is this old wood flat. Fun to just tuck in what I can find. Goes well with the wispy pink baby's breath, alyssum and brachycome daisies.
I
went to the back shed and found this old window that I have used in a
number of places mainly the back patio or on my back fence, and
thought-why not? So here it is above the bench. I had some vintage
looking flag fabric in my stash and simply gathered it up to dress the
window a bit.
just throwing in a close up on my up-cycled chair I did a couple years ago. The brachycome flowers are planted in a hard hat that I punched holes into for drainage.
all set to kick off my shoes and watch the fireworks from the porch!
Happy 4th of July to all my bloggie friends!

I love it, I love it, I love it, right down to the very last detail. I'll take the quilt and the pillows and the tool box and the flowers I'd kill so you can keep those and I'll just look. So adorable.

Looks like a perfect spot to watch a 4th of July parade. Does one pass by your home?
Happy 4th of July!
No on the parade Sarah, But we have open farmland around us, so we can see the fireworks from the next town
I love your porch...it's so welcoming, especially for the fourth!
