Whoa!  It's been a while huh? :)  Sorry about that, I am going to dedicate myself to getting on here more often! PROMISE!

Ok let's talk your DIY 4th of July Decor!  Nothing feels better than accomplishing something yourself, and for way, way less than you could buy it in store.  I mean seriously it's the best!  BUT, truth be told I am a really bad DIY'er.  I always have the best of intentions.  However throughout my pinterest DIY journey I have learned two things. 

#1 you have to have PATIENCE!  And if you know me at all, you know I possess very little of this skill.  I want things done, and I want them done now.  So if it's something that has to sit overnight, seriously I'm out.  Aint nobody got time for that! :) I need instant gratification.  So, for me, it has to be a project that I can accomplish in less than two hours, start to finish.

#2 you have to have the right TOOLS for the job.  Around my house, I'm usually searching for a hammer, so no, I rarely have the right tools for the job.  I always think I should ask for a good set of tools for Christmas.  Then I think, 'am I really going to use them?' and poof there goes that idea.  

So, in the meantime I just enjoy everyone else's creative greatness and wish I could be like them.  When I find something I know is in my wheelhouse, I may go for it.  I'll let you know if that ever happens! Click the link to enjoy my fav 4th of July DIY Decor board!

Have a very Happy 4th of July everyone!
