Summer is here! And boy does it feel like it in Texas! With long summer days, warm summer nights with fireflies in the moonlight, and fireworks on 4th of July, who doesn’t love summer!?
We also have two opportunities in the summer to remember, reflect and honor those who sacrificed so much for this great Nation.
With my husband being a former Marine, we take our patriotism serious and we always want to honor, and celebrate our Nation’s history, heritage and heroes respectfully.
Additionally, we want our home to respectfully reflect our patriotism as we gather together with friends and family during these occasions.
We try to keep it pretty simple around our home. Front porch decorations, welcome our guests and set the patriotic tone.
Another simple way to decorate for Independence Day is with pillows and throws.
One of my most favorite pillow covers we have ever carried is our God Bless America Pillow Cover. Not only is the message perfectly patriotic but the substantial ticking fabric along with the double stitched button closure on the back ensures that this cover is sturdy and will last through years of decorating and actual use. This is not your cheap China made pillow cover y’all!
Pair with our Old Glory Throw and not only will you have “throw”back props to 1776 and Betsy Ross (get it “throw” back…😂) you will also have decor that is equally functional for taking outside on cool summer nights (we don’t have those in Texas, and we are very, very jealous of those of you who do!) or to spread on the grass, lay back and watch fireworks on the 4th of July!
Lastly, the centerpiece for the buffet table (ok so maybe we went a little overboard here but who can blame us)!
If you want to go overboard too, all of our centerpiece pieces can be found in our God Bless America Collection!
We sincerely hope you enjoy Independence Day with your friends and family, while you celebrate America and the freedoms we were given by God, and those who sacrificed so much!
Party like it's 1776, y'all!
Love, Tamara and the Crew at Threadbare Gypsy Soul
