Vintage Patriotic Front Porch for Independence Day-Decorate With Me

 Hi Friends, 

I've been a busy adding Patriotic touches to my front porch.

I showed you my galvanized buckets on the front porch in a 1st of June post, "Vintage Galvanized Buckets and Florals for the Front Porch".

From there, I started by adding  touches of Patriotic -little flags to the black enamel pot, but there was something missing...

I changed the tattered ribbons on the vintage milk cans with new patriotic ribbons. 

Added a few more flags to an a vintage milk can and wire basket 

It was still looking like I needed some height, so I dug out a vintage rectangle wire basket to give height to the brass bucket.

I had a red metal barn star that I have had about 12 years, that I had on a corner shelf in the family room so I brought it out to add a little "Country Charm".

There seemed to be a bare spot in the middle there so I went looking in my house. 

I found this thrifted black lantern, from my "Community Budget Center" stuffed in a corner of the guest bathroom, kind of looking out of place, and thought why not paint this.... 

 

Red. In the craft supplies I had red acrylic paint, to use for this quick project with this lantern, I love how the lantern turned out.  What do you think?

Still some vacant space here so I added this....

I am Proud to Be an American flag I purchased at "Dollar Tree, last year for a Dollar.

It seems like there is more blank space, so I might think about this.....

Thank you for stopping by, and if you could give me some ideas to fill this blank area that would be great.

Until I can figure it out needs to be put in this space.

May God Bless You and Your Family.
