I think these turned out kinda cute! They are made from vintage graphics I have printed on heavy card stock and backed with another layer to make them very strong to hold up for years to come. I distressed them with brown ink to make them look vintage. Fun to make! I will now make them for every season and special occasions. I might add some to my Etsy store in the near future!
Wishing you a Happy 4th of July!
I am grateful for my blessings and love the good, old USA!

Hi MaryJane,
Your patriotic garlands are simply gorgeous! I noticed you stopped by for a visit. . . I love meeting new friends! I hope you don't mind but I'm going to visit your blog for a little while :) I LOVE, LOVE, your vintage Jewel trailer. I have been looking for a vintage trailer, yours is DELISH !!

MaryJane -
I have spent the last hour visiting your blog! Simply beautiful!! I was excited to read about the Sister's on the Fly, because a couple of years ago, I had read in a magazine (which may have been Country Living??) about a group of women who got together (with their vintage trailers) and went on wonderful adventures. I don't know if it's the same group of women, but it was at that time that I knew I wanted a vintage trailer for myself. Yours is too stinkin adorable !
You are very talented and I have so enjoyed seeing all of the beautiful items you create. I have added you to my favorites and definitely will be back for a visit :)
(Right now it's waaaay past my bedtime) LOL
Hugs,
Toni
Your banners look great!!
Oh my word...I am green with envy. Your trailer is adorable and you have it decorated so cozy!!! Can I come camping with you?? It looks like soo much fun...and your Granddaughter is a doll!!
Happy camping to you and Happy Fourth!!
Jen
