With Memorial Day Weekend here, I can’t help but feel a surge of patriotism. For fun, I’ve gathered up a few favorite finds from Etsy – each with its own Americana style.

Canning jar with eagle, Ugly Santa

Fine art photograph, Clancy’s Classics

1920’s enameled eagle brooch, Musarra and Company

Vintage cotton dishtowel by Junque du jour

Floral Pin, Vintage Chronogram

Elks pendant long necklace, JudithB Designs

Have a fun & safe Memorial Day weekend!

Have a wonderful weekend with your family!
