Memorial Day weekend is right around the corner - and if you are new around here, that means I'm currently throwing red, white and blue around the house like confetti. Oooooo..... confetti. That's an idea. I just love all things Americana. There's something about summer that feels so patriotic, and our farmhouse just begs me to cover it in stars and stripes. As part of 2018's Red, White and Blue-ing, I've also been cleaning and sprucing up the back porch. I thought this large wooden star needed a dose of the grand ol' flag.
