Last week I showed you guys my patriotic front porch and then proceeded to drop off the face of the earth for the rest of the week. Unfortunately Ellie and I came down with a bad case of strep throat and bronchitis and we’re still trying to recover. Not a great way to kick off summer vacation, huh?

Well at least I got one little project done since we were stranded in the house for a couple days: I added some touches of red, white, and blue to our foyer.

I actually had all of the pieces ready to go, including some newbies I scored at Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago like this Land Of the Free sign.

I did need some new chalkboard art I decided to stick with the Star Spangled Banner theme and do something simple this month for my chalkboard design: Home of the Brave.

I actually freehanded the artwork this time since the design was pretty simple (idea taken from The Golden Sycamore).

4th of july decorations

As I mentioned around the table I decorated with some patriotic décor.
This little lantern is my new favorite find!

And of course I needed lots of little flags to complete the space, including a little bunting banner above the chalkboard to tie it all together.

Anyone else suffering from a summer sickness?
I totally have cabin fever and need to get out of this house!

    Bummer you guys got sick! The foyer looks great! I did my mantle last week for 4th of July.

    Your entrance way looks beautiful! I love the chalk board. We have had a few sick days in our family too! Getting sick in the summer is no fun. Hope you start feeling better and are able to work on your projects!

    This is such a wonderful idea. I like how you can change it according to the holiday season you’re in.

    Thank you for sharing this with us on the #HomeMattersParty. We hope to see you again on Friday at 12 AM EST when we open our doors.
