Wonderfully festive table decorations! July 4th is my eldest’s 20th birthday, so I’m sure we will be barbecuing at home and setting off fireworks/going to a city fireworks display. (Not our town, as they had to postpone it due to supply issues. Hello fireworks in September!) But at least our firecracker will get to see big fireworks on her birthday! Our 16 yr old has to work that afternoon, (bummer!) but will be off in time for fireworks!
Thanks for all you do!
How fun Stephanie! I have a friend who’s son was born on July 4th and until he was around 9 years old thought that all the celebration was just for him. ๐
And thanks for the appreciation!
your table looks so festive and pretty! Love all the details and work you did to make it so lovely.
Thanks so much! Love those thrift store finds. ๐
