The 4th of July will be here in soon, so I've started getting the front porch ready for a celebration with family and friends. |
Today, I decorated what I like to call the "entry on the front porch" |
I'm serving watermelon in several different ways on the 4th, Mojito's......grilled....salsa on the street taco's.......so, I thought I would use watermelons in my decor on the porch. |
I made a watermelon banner using some of the prints I have on my Pinterest board. In the center of the banner, I have a Farmers Market sign. |
On each side of the Farmers Market sign, I have watermelon slices. |
Here's the link to my board if you would like to make a watermelon banner .......https://www.pinterest.com/penny2005/print-it/banners/ |
I repurposed my metal chargers and used them as "frames" |
This project was so easy. I just printed off Farmers Market signs and attached them to my metal charger frame with a magnet. |
You can find the signs here.........https://www.pinterest.com/penny2005/print-it/ |
Then I moved on to the wreath on the front door. |
I added a string of watermelons to the existing Peony wreath. |
I've had my string of watermelons so long that I don't remember where I even found them. |
Probably at a yard sale! |
There is plenty of seating for guests on the porch. Two rockers, a wicker sofa, and two chaise lounges.....plus all the seating at the farm table. |
I created my flag using pastel floral fabric and lace stripes. |
I still need to decorate the fireplace mantel and the farm table for the 4th. |
Thank you so much for stopping by..........come back soon! |
I love your shabby chic flag! You have such pretty things and you're a fantastic decorated.
