4th of July is coming up in a week and you have all weekend to get your decorations ready for the party! Here are some easy decoration ideas for your festive event!
Better Homes and Gardens has a great list of ideas out there here are some of their suggestions:
Festive Flag Wreath
Do you have a wreath laying around from another event? If you don’t that’s ok the Foam Wreath
you can find about 3 for a $1 in the Dollar section at Target right now or you can buy 12 for $10 on Amazon
Blue Glassware Centerpiece
A collection of Blue Bottles
4th of July Napkin Ring
If you are doing a more formal 4th of July dinner then upgrade your place setting by attaching some Sparkler
You can also use sparklers in your centerpieces by I advise highly against lighting them!
Red, White, and Blue Picnic Servers
Spice up recycled containers (oatmeal containers work great) with scrapbooking paper to make easy utensil holder. Cut paper to size and use a glue stick to adhere to the outside of each cup. Scrapbooking and craft stores often carry pre-made chalkboard labels
