Happy Fourth!

Fourth of July
Red, White & Blue
Shells & Stars

It just took me a couple of hours this morning to change out the living room to celebrate the Fourth with some color....Red, White & Blue!  First order of business was to do something about that coffee table/trunk.  I've so been wanting to see some white!
Since I don't have 'the perfect table' yet...I decided to try my bedside table (crock bench)...Humm;...not 100%, but getting better!
I found the stripped sham this week at the thrift store (Ralph Lauren...$1.99), snagged the quilt from my grandson's room along with the dark blue paisley pillow case and then out came my shell collection.

Collection of vintage flags...again from Javan's room.

This is a real seahorse...pretty cool, but it kinda freaks out my grandson!

I kept the dining room pretty simple...just filled a wire basket with white stars.


It was a good day!
Blessings,
Susie

    Susie,
    I think it looks wonderful! I love how easily you chang your whole look, & you always do it with thrift store & reporposing. I love that since our budget isn't huge. I need to check the etsy store & see whats new. Lisa
    PS Have a happy celebration.

    Your talents are more appreciated here than they are on rms, why can't people be kind instead of critical! Hope you are having a wonderful 4th!
