Hi everyone! I thought I’d show you my living room china cabinet decorated for the 4th of July. I didn’t want to do too much as next week I’ll take out the holiday decorations and then just leave it as it is until fall.
I got this patriotic planter at the thriftstore last year and filled it with some faux flowers in my favorite yellow/red combo. It’s hanging on the cabinet door which I usually keep open.
I brought out my favorite patriotic plates!

Last is the bottom shelf with a variety of things including my toile tin star (I decopauged it many years ago) and a rooster that’s ready to celebrate!

Everything is so festive! I always get inspired by your wonderful decor. Thanks for sharing your gifts with us.
By the way, I also have that hanging basket. It is from the Southern Living at Home line of Home Decor products. I got it at the end of the season clearance for only $5 and I love putting it out in for the summer.
Have a great long weekend!
