Summer Celebration

Friends! I know I'm supposed to be talking about summer door decor, so I'll make this quick, but I just had to say a big, humongous THANK YOU for the outpouring of support yesterday for the launch of my very first eBook! I was seriously so overwhelmed by your encouragement all day long, and I could not have asked for a better 30th birthday! You guys rock!! The book is geared toward bloggers, soon-to-be bloggers, and blog enthusiasts, so if that's you and you haven't had a chance to check it out yet, I would be oh-so-honored if you would pop over to the landing page and take a look! You will find alllll the details about the book's content, testimonials from bloggers who have read it, and even a sample chapter! Woot!

Okay, okay... now back to your regularly scheduled programming! 😉

It's Summer Celebration week here in blogland, which means that I've joined together with some of my most favorite blogging buddies to bring you a wide array of beautiful summer projects! I tackled my door decor for this event, and if you're a regular reader of this blog, you're probably saying to yourself, "Hey, doesn't that door decor look kinda familiar...?" And you would be right. See, a few months ago, I revealed my spring door decor, and it looked a little something like this:

Recognize anything? 😉 Now don't get me wrong, I LOVE to change out my door decor with each season, but I had grown attached to this pretty little frame, and I just wasn't ready to let it go yet. So instead of ditching it altogether, I gave it a little bit of a makeover! The switch was so simple, and I loved that I was able to use something I already had and give it a whole new look!

Here's what I used to change it up:

Spring to Summer Door Decor at JustAGirlAndHerBlog.com

  • Frame (mine was originally from Michael's)
  • Feathers
  • Felt
  • Paint (I used Behr's Swan Sea.) + Paint Brust
  • Scissors
  • Hot Glue Gun

I started by painting the frame. While it was drying, I made my felt flower. I kind of have a thing for felt flowers. I even made a whole wreath out of them at Christmas time, and if I didn't get bored with my door decor so easily, I would definitely have that one out all year. But since I like a change every now and then, I'll just do a different wreath and sneak felt flowers in wherever I can, mmmmmk? 😀

ANYWAY... I started by cutting a big circle out of my felt (1). Then I cut it into a spiral shape (2). I started at the middle of the flower and began wrapping the felt around itself, securing it with a dot of hot glue (3). I continued to wrap and wrap, putting a dot of hot glue every few rotations (4).  When I got to the end of my felt, I put one final dab of hot glue under the end piece to keep it together (5), and I had my beautiful flower (6)! So easy!

Then all that was left to do was glue everything together. I glued down my feathers first and glued the felt flower on top of them.

After that I added a ribbon, hung it on the door, and I was done!

Should we check out the spring-to-summer transformation?

I love it when a piece can do double duty! Maybe I'll use the same frame for fall and winter, and just do a year-long series. Or maybe I'll be bored with it by then! 😉 Thanks so much for checking out my summer door decor!

    I love that little frame! It reminds me of the cover of your book. (Which I am currently devouring, thanks!)
    I love how you just gave it a little facelift for summer. You could probably get a whole year's worth of use if you just kept repainting and embellishing 🙂

    What a simple-yet-genius way to 'summer it up'! I like changing my decor (often, according to my Hubby) so this is a great way to do that!
