ENTRY TABLE DECORATED FOR THE 4TH OF JULY

 Seems like every year I wait too long to put out my patriotic items on the entry table for the 4th - so this year I put a reminder in Outlook so I would not forget!

Besides decorating outside for the holidays I will always at least decorate my entry table.  The lamp and the cachepot stay and I decorate around them.

 The white lantern is re-purposed from a previous post. Here is the link where you will find instructions, all I had to do was change out the ribbon (& I added a couple of ribbons on the sides too), Lantern.

Cute little Anna Lee's in the cachepot.

 July picture from my Nancy Thomas collection. A note about Nancy Thomas.  If you do not know her work she is an American folk artist and her works are found in museums, etc.  If you are ever near Yorktown, VA, her little gallery there is just wonderful.  I have placed a link to her page below but you can find her works in gift stores around the country. 

Nancy Thomas Gallery in Yorktown, VA,  are you ready for a roadtrip Gayle?

Nancy Thomas window box on a bench outside her gallery in Yorktown, VA. My belief is that no matter what your decorating style, there is always a place for a little folk art, especially American folk art.
