I’ve packed up the flags and fish and flower door hangers that were remnants of summer and pulled out the school things! We were gone so much in July that our house needs some tending to. You can see here that a wind storm blew a vacant bird nest off its perch (upper right). The… Read More
I absolutely love patriotic decor! I think there’s nothing better than a house flying the stars and stripes. We had all of ours up in time for flag day last week and will enjoy them through July. I have used the same buntings and smaller flags for quite a few years. I store all of this… Read More
