4th of July Decor
Today I am sharing my patriotic decor. I usually pull it out a few weeks before the 4th, sometimes remember to have it out for Memorial Day weekend as well as Labor Day and Veteran’s Day. What I like about it is that all of it was budget friendly and I feel that it is complete so I do not have to invest any more money each year.
My front door wreath was a find at Aldi 2 summers ago for less than $20! I love it: it is wooden so I have to make sure to store it well but it has held up well. It makes a pretty statement on my front door.
I made two sets of 3 jars and have them displayed on my front porch bistro table set as well as my side porch set. Such an easy DIY project: pour beans in large ziplock bag, add paint, shake! Do that with each color then put them on some wax paper on cookie sheet to dry. I used jars I had around the house.
I found this cute little front door mat at Aldi for $6.99. I am keeping my red boots next to it since I usually go through that porch door to go pick blackberries and I need the boots for protection from thorns and possible insects and snakes.
Indoors I just added some flags homemade or free ones given to us to my existing summer decor which is currently lemons and navy stripes. This little flag and a few others were made by my children a couple of years ago.
Nothing simpler than some flags in a mason jar!
I added a couple flags in my living room too. I like that my decor is simple but tasteful! Sometimes less is more! I am also proud that most of it was DIY or very inexpensive!
Do you decorate for the 4th of July?

Oooh these decorations are so fun!! I especially love your wreath, it’s so pretty and such a steal too. We don’t usually decorate for the Fourth except for a fireworks flag in our front lawn.

I like it that I have enough that I do not feel the desire to buy more decorations: just enough to make it festive and happy!

Mireille, I love your patriotic decor! The wreath is so great! And that bicycle door mat. Oh my, it is the cutest. I rarely decorate for any holiday except minimally for Christmas and Halloween and that is only because my kids would not let me get away with no decorations! Thanks for sharing and linking up.

Lol! I try to use what I have but every once and a while I find something that I cannot pass up.
