Patriotic Inspiration

Gidget is ready for the 4th of July!

I wanted to join the Stars and Stripes Party over at Centsational Girl, but I just have a couple simple projects to share.  It seems like the 4th of July always sneaks up on me, I can’t believe June is practically over!
**********
This wooden and tin star was store-bought, but I added the USA sign.  Over the years, the little metal stars that were hanging from the bottom fell off and there was only one left, so I re-vamped this star door decoration by adding a hand painted wooden sign to the bottom along with the one metal star that was left.

My other 4th of July projects are these cute appliquéd ruffle tops and hair bows:
