Happy 1st Day of September.....which is also my little granddaughter's 9th birthday.
This year I decided to use my Ms Susie September Buttersworth as my decor. I normally use another Ms Buttersworth that features apples. But I decided I loved the bright and cheery colors of the Sunflowers. I made myself a new table runner, placemats and cloth napkins to put in the denim pockets. I also embroidered a sunflower design on them. I made a new, well... recycled wreath for my front door. I already had the cut-outs that I made and painted years ago, I just attached them to a straw pre-made wreath form and added a pretty ribbon. And thanks to Hobby Lobby they had the pretty sunflower "Welcome" mat, perfect for my theme. I made two new pillows for my porch bench and added a sunflower garland. And talking about recycling.....the fabric for backs of the placemats, the table runner, cloth napkins and the pillows were all made from a curtain that my daughter no longer wanted, lol they are mine now!
