DECOR

 

For opening gifts I want to do what this blogger did Passions for Parties

I love it and it would be so easy to make with just table Clothes and cardboard.

 

 

and I want to put felt squares down around the shell. so kids that are watching her open gifts might stay sitting lol crossing figure's lol

 

and for the food table I want to make a garland like this One

Mine will probably be made out of dollar table clothes.

 

 

 

and I Would love to put this on the Fan from Here

 

 

and have a fish net like Here

Yesterday Was Americans Birthday!

and my family had a BBQ and watched fireworks

 

 

I Forgot to get my little girl a Forth of July outfit so the morning of

I was going through her closet and my sewing room to see what I had, finally I found my fabric markers and a old handy down white tank top of hers. so I drew a American flag star and added a red felt bow to the back of her shirt :) and I had some flag ribbon so I hurried and made a hair bow.

I was happy how it turned out and I finished the outfit with her 80's shorts :)

 

for me I was going though my closet trying to decide what to wear it was 95% outside and I really didn't want to wear my jeans so I dug around tell I found my white wide legged pants which I haven't worn in 5 years. I kind of forgot I even had them. and I bought this necklace on Ebay for $3! with free shipping a while back but I never worn it yet because I thought it was to dressy but when I was going through my closet I found my blue shirt which was the exact color of the necklace! and after I but the outfit together I was in love with it, the necklace was perfect with it, the baggy shirt and the wide leg pants tone down the necklace making into a everyday outfit.

 

 

And hopefully soon I Will be getting a tutorial on how to do my hair!

My Sister and I are going to make a Video. :)

 

Oh and on a side note, I made this Yummy Pasta Salad it was so easy and it was a big hit!
