The Fourth of July is always a fun holiday–with so many activities and get-togethers! \u00a0It is one of my favorite holidays, mainly because of the beautiful fireworks displays! \u00a0If you are planning a celebration with family and friends, I have found some ideas that you may like!<\/p>\n

First of all, the Fourth of July is the day we celebrate our independence. \u00a0Here is a great way to decorate your front door and greet people as they arrive at your home. \u00a0I found this free download on Pinterest<\/a> at 773blog.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"JULY4F\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Be sure and display the American flag! \u00a0I put small flags in my pots along my walkway up to my front door. \u00a0I also have flag buntings on my porch and deck railings. \u00a0Party City<\/a> has a great supply of flags and buntings.<\/p>\n

\"JULY4E\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I think this table decoration is great – It could be used for Memorial Day as well as for your Fourth of July celebration. \u00a0This idea comes from Dream Book Design<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"JULY4J\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When getting your table ready, these patriotic tin cans are a simple and easy way to have the eating utensils displayed for your guests. \u00a0The Stock Piling Moms<\/a> showed this idea on Pinterest<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"JULY4A\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Why not give the kids something to make to get ready for the celebration? \u00a0These patriotic pinwheels from Good Housekeeping<\/a> are easy to make, and the kids will have fun with them.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"JULY4B\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hamburgers, hot dogs, brats and ribs are usually on the menu for the Fourth of July. \u00a0Don’t forget some “healthy” foods as well! \u00a0Here is a Patriotic Fruit Bowl from Meal Planning Magic<\/a>. \u00a0 I love the idea of cutting the watermelon in the star shapes!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"JULY4G\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Don’t forget dessert! \u00a0I found several ideas on Pinterest<\/a>. \u00a0I am not too sure which one I would choose – I maybe would have to make more than one! \u00a0The “flag” cake is always a favorite. \u00a0This one from Kraft<\/a> uses a pound cake, but I am sure you could use a regular cake mix.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"JULY4C\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Kids always love brownies and these red, white and blue star brownies from Rumbly in my Tumbly <\/a>would be a hit!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"JULY4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My daughter loves red velvet cake so I am sure she would vote for these cupcakes from Your Cup of <\/a>Cake. \u00a0If you didn’t want to use whipped cream, I am sure you could get the same effect by using whipped frosting.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"JULY4H\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Whatever you do for your Fourth of July celebration, have a great day! \u00a0I hope, too, that you will stop and give thanks and pray for our country! \u00a0I think this free printable from The Crafting Chicks<\/a> expresses it all!<\/p>\n
