In the blink of an eye, the Fourth of July is upon us.  It’s the quintessential summer holiday; a time for family and friends to celebrate our independence by gathering on the patio, grilling our favorite foods, and adorning everything in red, white and blue. Here are some easy ways to make your patio patriotic for the holiday.

Punch up the Color on the Patio with Red, White and Blue Containers

There are many other combinations that would work. Push a grouping of miniature flags into the center of your arrangement just for the holidays. Or wrap your container in red, white and blue bunting and you’re already on your way to welcoming the holiday with spirit.

Sparkle with Sand Art Mason Jars

Wave Red, White and Blue with Paper Lanterns

Greet Your Guests with a Red, White and Blue Handkerchief Wreath

Light up the night (without fireworks)

We love these beautiful red and white rattan lights. They add color during the day, and keep the party going through the night with beautiful lighting once the sun goes down.

Don’t forget night time decorations

We hope you have a safe and happy 4th!
