It is feeling like summer here! With temps in the 90's today, the summer decorating I've been slowly adding feels just right!
As I mentioned in my last post...
I love red, white, and blue in the summer...
Isn't this fun old plate? I found this last fall at the thrift store and knew it would be a great piece for summer!
We have a lot of family gatherings around this table...
A vintage minnow bucket filled with Scrabble letters
leftover from my Junk Bonanza selling days,
makes a whimsical holder for flags...
A great Americana painting has an unexpected home on this hanging grocery store chalkboard...
The chalkboard was a thrift store find, and I found the painting
at a garage sale last summer for $5...
I added a little red to the hutch...
Red signs add a graphic touch...
I love the look of a vintage flag...
and a great old truck.
A fun little necklace of stars
makes this mannequin ready for a party...
*THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED*

The vintage flag and the watermelon platter are my favorites! Your summertime decorating is awesome!!
ReplyDeleteOh, everything is just so gorgeous! What a great use for that minnow bucket! The watermelon plate is absolutely beautiful. And the old Tonka truck ... swoon. I never would have dreamed I'd feel that way back when I was fighting over Tonka trucks in the sandbox with my brothers!
ReplyDeleteMy grandmother had a few watermelon plates similar to your platter. My mom was lucky enough to inherit it. Your decorations are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteYour home is so gorgeous!! You truly have such a talent for putting things together in the most lovely way!
ReplyDeleteLinda, I love the watermelon plate. It's is the perfect summer dish. :):) Your hutch looks great with the red, white and blue touches. I too love old looking flags. Now I have to get busy redoing my center piece after visiting you. :) Blessings, xoxo, Susie

I love your watermelon plate and I'm kicking myself for passing up a Campfire marshmallow tin. ;)
ReplyDeleteLinda, I love something in every single picture!!
ReplyDeleteYou are GOOD my friend! My husband would love you for your patriotic decor as in the first few photos. He's a history buff and knows everything and anything about every single president right up to #44!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove what you've done. You can't go wrong with red, white and blue. Not only does it meld together, summer hosts some patriotic occasions! Again, ask hubby.

The old truch looks authentic. The american flags and the painting with 'God Bless America' caption, add a good touch of patriotism to your home decoration.
ReplyDeleteYou have the best vintage goodies to decorate for summer, Linda. Love the pops of red, and especially your American flags.
