Happiness Is Homemade Party
WELCOME TO HAPPINESS IS HOMEMADE
Welcome friends. This week we have some great 4th of July Ideas! Thank you for linking up last week! It’s always exciting to see such a great variety of shared ideas that we can get inspiration from. It’s a difficult job since all the posts are very inspiring, but it’s a very exciting thing to do. Without any further, let’s start the party with This Week’s Features!
You can also check last week’s features here.
4th of July Pallet Blocks
4th of July Blocks
I started to decorate with holiday items for Memorial Weekend. I made some stars and flags for a centerpiece. You can see those here.
I decided to add to my collection by making some wooden blocks. I made one blue with a star and 2 with red stripes. (they look on the pink side but are really red)
These were easy to make. I used pallet boards to make mine. You can use any scrap of wood since they are not very large.
I used one board cut from a pallet to cut all three of my blocks.
How to make 4th of July blocks:
pallet board
paint
painters tape
washers
twine
1. Pallet boards are the right size. You can use any board you have and make them whatever size you want, but mine are 3 1/2 X 5. Cut 3 pieces
2. I cut the corners off of each piece at one end. I cut them at 45 degrees. Sand lightly.
3. I painted one of the blocks blue and then used some sand paper to rough it up. I painted both sides.
4. I cut a star out of card stock paper and then traced it on the blue block. I painted the star white.
5. For the red stripe ones, I painted the blocks white on both side. Once dried, I taped of some stripes and then painted them red. Once they were dried and the tape was removed, I sand the blocks a little.
6. I drilled a hole near the top so I could add twine. I found these rusted washers so I glued them to one side. (I did not put them on both sides)
They were easy to make and make a great addition to my 4th f July decorations.

Thursday Favorite Things Party
Welcome to Thursday Favorite Things Party
Happy Thursday friends. I am heading back home today. I had a wonderful visit with my Mom. It is always difficult to leave her. I wish I could bring her to live with me, but she wants to stay in PA.
I also enjoyed spending time with my baby sister. We shopped a little. I found a couple of great purses at the City Mission. You can never have too many, especially when they are brand names and practically new.
I hope all is well with you and that your week has been great.
Many of my features come from your comments. Don't forget to leave our Linkup Number or Post Title so I can find you and you might become one of my features for next week.

You're The Star - Family Feature Week
Welcome to You're The Star - Family Feature Week
Happy Monday. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Mine has been so nice here with my Mom. The weather has been awesome. So cool compared to Florida.
We had a girls day today, my Mom, my sister and myself. We went to church, out to lunch and then the cemetery.
I hope you have a great week ahead.
