Americana Door Wreath -- Celebrate the Flag!

Ready to celebrate flag day or looking forward the to fourth of July?  Then add this Americana Door Wreath to your home for a touch of patriotic home decor!  Your fourth of July will not be complete without a wreath of red, white, and blue!  Of course I had to add a little farmhouse flair to the american flag! :)
I used a burlap covered wreath form.  Then I made a series of shabby roses.  Just used strips of fabric -- twist and turn til you have a great shabby rose!  Add them to your wreath with a touch of hot glue.
For a mix of textures, I used white cotton, blue and white ticking, and red canvas...
Then for the finishing touch -- an americana bunting banner to top it off!
Our goodwill is moving so they are marking everything down.  I found a little baby outfit that was flag themed.  Cutting that into little triangles gave me the perfect bunting for my wreath!  I sewed my triangles onto a red ribbon then used hot glue to secure it to the wreath.  You don't have to sew the bunting...glue will work in a pinch!
I love the way my wreath turned out!  Shabby farmhouse with a touch of patriotism!
The perfect door decor for the season!  A great way to welcome your guests for any summer bash!
Are you ready for the fourth of July?  What red, white, and blue themed decor are you dreaming up?

I am quite in love with the frayed rosettes and farmhousey (is that word? it is now!) burlap. Sigh. I think I must try this.
