summer is not half over. . .yet

a starry welcome

the fourth of july is two weeks from today. what!?!?!  i always feel like summer is half over at that point.

but instead of dwelling on how fast time moves, let us savor what we have remaining.  last year, i whipped up this fast and festive sewn paper garland on july 3rd and it was a sweet lil' addition to our celebration of america.  i plan on pulling it out again this week and maybe adding some buntings to our porch as well.  (if i can find a moment to make them.) 

this starry welcome photo is my most pinned right now.  it also was the cause of a much exciting e-mail last week.  the danish magazine, bolig liv, asked to use it in their september 2011 issue!  um, yeah, i don't know if it is wrong to talk about it before it is published, but i just wanted to share that unexpected and fun news.  

a project i spent very little time and thought on. . . a project that was created for a crafternoon with my littles and teaching luca some machine skills. . . a project that was simple and no stress.

happy monday lovelies!
xoxo,
