Patriotic Pool Noodle Wreath

Hola Amigos! re you guys ready for this long weekend ahead? I am, and seems like our old friend "weather" will cooperate too! I got my grilling ready with my Black and Blue Burgers with Pimento Sauce, for some chicken I got my son's Drunken Chicken Recipe, got my drinks going like my Fruity Frozen Sangria, my Blueberry Ice Cream Soda Float and for dessert non other than a family favorite Death by Chocolate! The only thing missing was a little bit of decor...here comes the reliable Pool Noodle.

If you have $5 dollars, 5 minutes and a few last year decorations around you can also make one of these. Just take a ride to your nearest Dollar Store for your Pool Noodle and a few patriotic Hawaiian garlands and in no time your door would be ready for the weekend Holiday.
Last Year's Pool Noodle

As you can see here, I got a few Hawaiian Flower garlands in red, white and blue, got a Hat, a few stars left from last years wreath and a few blowers!!! (noisy maker thingies) lol.

Just wrap the garland around your pool noodle and decorate as you please.
There is no way of placing this wreath the wrong way, hat up, hat to the side inside or outside it looks good!


Since I couldn't appreciate my hat the way I had envisioned in my mind, I decided to use anther $1 dollar item, a cute USA sign! Perfect.

Thank You for visiting the blog my friends, hope you have a great, fun and safe Memorial Day Weekend. Don't forget to remember with a thought or a prayer those men and women of uniform who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country and all of us. Without them we would not be enjoying all the freedom and joy we have today.

Besitos,

    Hey gal, you are some decorator, that is such an awesome wreath, you did a wonderful job of sprucing up every thing. I might just have to do that for July 4th. Love your wreath so much. Happy Weekend, enjoy

    The weather is good to be outside, but why is it cold again, Lizy??? It's the end of May and the heater is running!! Grr. Someone alert Michigan that it's supposed to be consistently warm outside now.

    This came out pretty and festive too (and you can re-use it on the 4th of July). :) I like the sign on the hat.

    Hopefully the weather will warm up to enjoy festivities outside tomorrow. Sounds like you've got lots of good stuff and delicious food planned.

    Adorable!! You did a great, frugal job, Lizy! How I would love to attend a BBQ at your house. I know I would eat too much :)
    Hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend with your guys.

    How fun and patriotic. Adding the hat gives the wreath an interesting 3D element. I'd love if you'd come share at my first ever link party http://organized31.blogspot.com/2013/05/inspire-us-thursday-link-party-1.html

    This is just great! I love it for a couple reasons, one is that it is very pretty and two that it is so inexpensive! I will be featuring this wreath in the Top 10 of the In and Out of the Kitchen Link party post!

    Thanks so much for linking this wreath at the In and Out of the Kitchen party. See you next week!
