Beg Borrow or Thrift - A Patriotic Twist
This weekend is the 4th of July (and my grandmother's 90th birthday -- woo hoo!). I am very patriotic and love, Love, LOVE the red, white, and blue. But I don't always want to wear it head to toe. So, here is my more subtle offering. Details -- I used ivory and pumpkin to replace the red and white with a pop of blue in the boho-styled necklace. The feel of the flag is represented in a more neutral palette.
