Happy HOT 4th of July!

The outdoors feels as hot as a firecracker!!!  We're not used to this heat in Michigan.  It's suppose to reach 100 degrees today.  Yikes.


 However, you spend your 4th of July, I hope you have a festive and fun day! 
I had to squeeze in one more patriotic craft.
Thanks for the hat inspiration, Elizabeth!



 Stay cool.


  Be safe!  Happy HOT 4th of July!

  11. I love the repurposed dolls! I bought a couple from Magpie Ethel after seeing yours and hers...so cute! Hope things cool down a bit...we're used to a little heat, but the rest of the country that isn't is sure hit hard. Since you're one of the "coolest" people on the blogs...you'll help us think cool thoughts. =D

  15. I love your 4th of July decorations and blog banner! Your home looks so welcoming, and that sailor suit (squeal!).

    PS Those aprons on the bottles are so cute. My sister wants me to make something like that for an apron themed bridal shower.
