The past couple of years I have loved decorating for July 4th. I've been keeping my eye out at antique malls and flea markets but have not found much.

Every year I put flags in my front flower pots from Memorial Day until Labor Day.

This little soldier has been one of my favorite finds from TJMaxx.

I changed out my little green plate with a red one and added red, white and blue gumballs to my candy jar.


Cody hates that I hang something from every little knob but I love doing it! :)

I changed out the message on my little chalkboard to reflect the season.

My mom bought me this cute candle holder last year.

She also got me this cute pillow. It says, "Stars And Stripes Forever".


I had to use my flash on this one but this is where I change out fun seasonal signs. This one says, "America Land of the Free". This was a two dollar find at Oops several years back. I have loved seeing every one's Patriotic decorations and look forward to seeing more. It is quickly becoming one of my favorite holidays.

I love your decorations, especially the last one! Happy almost 4th.

You have such a GREAT eye for decorating! I'm so inspired by your blog!
I am definitely going to be putting flags in my flower pots now!

Love it! I need more patriotic stuff in my house!
Your decorations are so cute! I love that tray in your kitchen with all the goodies in there! It's my fav! You always inspire me to go to antique mall and thrift stores!
LOVE IT!!!!!! I miss 4th of July fun! Being in NYC for 4th of July was always so much fun.
Cute decorations....I love seeing everyones decor also for the different hoildays...I never did any decorating for the different seasons until I came to blogger...
Your decorations look great- so patriotic!
I like to hang things on knobs also- but somehow I don't have many knobs on things like cabinets ,etc. Gotta get some more knobs! :)
I have a huge love for the Fourth! So I love all your red, white, and blue! I love to keep flags out all summer, too. So summery!
You have quite a bit compared to me! I started out this year with ZERO patriotic decor...but have since gone on the hunt for red, white and blue things around my house. Now I have a small 4th of July display! Your stuff looks great! I'll have to start collecting like you did.
Your decorations are so cute! I don't have any patriotic decorations but you've inspired me to start looking for some. :)
Looks cute! We bought an Uncle Sam on a bicycle windmill at Opps last Saturday. I need to get out my red, white and blue lights for the front porch.
Everything looks great. God Bless America!
Very festive Shannon!
Love that red, white and blue! Jackie
Yours look wonderful...my decorations are non-existant! I ought to take two minutes and put out the paltry decorations that I have.

Very Pretty! I love summer and the 4th of July. Love your pot on the porch.
Shannon I LOVE everything. You have to go to my blog and see the cute rugs I posted about yesterday. They will go with all your red, white and blue decorations.
They look great! I never decorated for July 4th. I think I only decoarte for Xmas season! Shame on me!
It all looks great Shannon! I always love seeing your iron tray in your kitchen and how you change it out for the seasons and holidays.
Thank you for sharing!! The 4th has always been one of my top 2 favorite holidays! I'm missing not being in the States for it this year so it's nice being able to look at how everyone's decorating!
Have a wonderful week:)
Love all your decorations. That candyjar is perfect where you have it! How you manage to decorate for every holiday I will never know, but I am so glad you do. I love to see it all!
Your decorations are so cute.
My birthday is on Flag Day, so I have always had a special love for the flag. I just love your red, white and blue!
Everything looks so fresh and patriotic for the holidays. You have so many cute things.
Hi Shannon~
I came across this blog and saw this 'Bless our Nest' art print-not sure it is in your colors or not but I had to tell you about it :)

Such a cute collection. I will be putting up my painted flag this weekend.

Aww Shannon, you've inspired me to get out my 4th of July deco! I wasn't going to decorate BUT you have inspired me :)
I just love the Americana. I'm especially loving the star pillow. You always decorate so cute.
I love it all, very fun!!
Very patriotic... beautiful! I for one find nothing wrong with hanging something from every knob, hook, nail... etc! ;)
Hi Shannon! I am putting together a post of what to do with old windows and wanted to include your window project back from June 2008. I just love the idea! Let me know if you don't want it included though. Thanks!
Good for you. I am so glad to see you declare that you love our country. It seems like patriotism has gone out of style with lots of "beautiful people"--and yet they've gotten to be "beautiful people" partly because of all the privileges they enjoy as Americans. I just don't get it.
Anyway, I appreciate your showing your colors and doing it in a way that looks good and is inspiring.
Lovely decorations! I wish I could decorate with nostalgic patriotism, but there's no such thing as vintage Canadiana, since we got our flag in the 60s ;-) I love the star you have hanging on that knob. I think my knobs need some hanging things.
Great job! I only decorate for Halloween & Christmas because I have no decorating skills but you inspire me :) The 4th of July is one of my favorite holidays as well.
Everything looks beautiful, Sweet Girl!
I love it all! Those striped candles are SO cool!
Shannon, I just found your blog via Thrifty Decor Chick. Your soldier and the red & white candlesticks! I too love decorating for the 4th and start at Memorial Day until Labor Day.
Best wishes,
Tammy
You always have the cuties holiday decor! I just picked up some more little flags for our porch now i need to get them out!

XOXO

Fun stuff! You are so creative! Happy 4th of July!
I, too, love decorating for the 4th. But I think I went a little overboard this year. I didn't mean to... I just kept going. Someone should have called, "Security", on me. Hee-hee!
Your decorations are adorable. So cute that your mom feeds your love of decorating. I love that TJMaxx soldier. Dar...ling!!!
You have such beautiful and rustic designs as always! I need to go to TJ Maxx I didnt know they had cute decor items :]
Happy 4th!!

I really like your decorations! Hope you and yours have a safe 4th of July.
I have been pulled to decorating for this holiday more as well but haven't added much so far. Your collection is so cute as usual! I hope to score some stuff on clearance for next year.
I am so excited for the 4th!
Love the patriotic decor. You have a great eye for things.
Hello Shannon - love all of your fabulous patriotic decorations! Inspires me to do more around my home this week.
Blessings,
