Happy Friday friends and welcome to Farmhouse Friday 349! I think this is the last week of school around here. I’m not completely positive considering my kids are adults with no kids and none are teachers. But we also have Memorial Day this weekend so both are great reasons to celebrate.
What do y’all usually do for Memorial Day? Do you have a picnic or have a party and grill outdoors? Possibly float in a lake all day or go to the movies or a museum? I know some people who take advantage of the retail sales and spend the day shopping. That is not me. What will you do?
If you still need a few last minute ideas with red, white and blue in mind, check out the 2 posts below. I think patriotic decor is my favorite seasonal look, especially living in Texas. We are a proud group of people and never have to be asked twice to fly our state or national flag.
Patriotic Decor Inspiration and Ideas by County Road 407
This is a recipe that is easy, will get rave reviews and is quite fun to put together. You can create designs or keep it simple like I did. Try it, you’ll everyone will like it!
A Quick and Easy Southern Delight – The Patriotic Punch Bowl Cake!
I’m excited to make this again. It might be all the smiles and full tummies that come along with it. 😉 Let’s get going with the features. It’s an easy theme this week if you stretch your imagination but I want to see if you can figure it out. Can you see it?
FARMHOUSE FRIDAY 349!
The title of this post had me giggling. Mona from Craft Klatch was in a yard art showdown challenge called craft or crap. What do you think? Did her recycled craft win the prize? Hop over to see how she made it.
Steph Creates has made a charming tea bag holder out of something you wouldn’t think to do. At least I wouldn’t. It turned out so stinkin’ cute. Definitely worth the pin so you can try it for yourself later on.
Sherry over at The Charm of Home shared some of the cutest ideas when showing off the progress in her garden. Look at that vintage plate. So fun! Check out her other ideas too!
I could sit here all night and enjoy the relaxation. It’s the lighting for me. Pop over for all of Maria’s ideas over at Krafty Planner. She’s helping our mental health. Sign me up!

I wish we could keep cool. The humidity has been ridiculous. But, at least it’s not in the hundreds yet! Hope you have a nice long weekend.

Happy Friday! 🙂 Schools have just finished here too in the UK for the half term and my alarm clock was switched off this morning! Hope you have a fabulous Memorial Day weekend – not as exciting here but still, we have a Bank Holiday and the sun will hopefully make an appearance! Thank you for hosting! Sim x

Glad to have you Sherry! Thank you
Thanks for hosting, Cindy… I’m sitting here with my jellybean #4 and we are watching the garage sale I’m having (again), and she is talking my ear off about babies, and Jesus’ heart, diapers, and money. It’s hilarious! Love them to death!

LOL! What a fun day and sounds like the best conversation ever! Hope you sell out!
