Bee Sweet Bee Kind Bee-utiful Wall Hanging with Simple Stories Lemon Twist
Hello, Friends! The flowers bursting out of our little garden bed inspired this Bee Sweet Bee Kind Bee-utiful Wall Hanging. I don’t know what your summer flower garden looks like, but ours is really showing off right now, and the bees are truly happy about it!
Turquoise Chevron Striped Twill from Really Reasonable Ribbon does double duty here as a belly band, and as a bow. This ribbon just never seems to go out of style. It’s a perfect color match for all the blossoms in this project. And do you spot the pretty Lemon border made with Reneabouquets Printed Beautiful Board? It fits right in, along with one of her bodacious Lemon Blossom Bees!
TIP: Give a chipboard frame a makeover by spattering it with Distress Paint. It knocks back the shine, and adds a lovely aged feeling to the chipboard.
I had a lot of fun with the shaker elements on this piece. In addition to sequins, I tossed in buttons, bee buttons, heart ephemera, beads and pearls. So much fun!
Summer comes and goes in the blink of an eye. I’ll enjoy it while it’s here, how about you?

Your knack for picking shaker elements is both incredible and impeccable! Teal/yellow are a match made in heaven.
What a gorgeous wall hanging, Kathy! Perfect for Summer décor. I really like the shaker window for this project. The shaker elements are just beautiful. I have always loved the color combination of yellow and blue. And of course the bee theme is always a favorite! Thank you for sharing! Hugs!
