Easily Elevate Simple 4th of July Treats
Ordinary treats become spectacular star-spangled snacks with a little help from a star-shaped cookie cutter and some printable 4th of July Cupcake Toppers! The red, white and blue cereal adds a fun pop of color to the treats, making them even more festive! If the colored cereal isn’t available in your area, you could always drizzle some white frosting on top of the treats and sprinkle with patriotic sprinkles.
The printable toppers are also great for adding a festive touch to cupcakes and other snacks, napkin rings, paper cups and favor bags!
A Fresh 4th of July Decorating Idea
Simple flower arrangements are the easiest way to give just about any space a festive facelift.
Looking for an easy centerpiece for your backyard BBQ? Fresh flowers. Want to add a simple touch of patriotic decor to your home? Fresh flowers. They just always work! Any variety of red, white and blue flowers is great for adding a simple splash of Independence Day pride to your decor.
If you want to elevate the arrangements and give them a more celebratory vibe, Printable 4th of July Pennant Flags tucked inside look so pretty and they are such an easy finishing touch! They look especially amazing as centerpieces on a group of tables at a larger gathering!
Super Simple 4th of July Gift Ideas
If you’re looking for the perfect 4th of July gift, look no further!
Not only are fresh flowers amazing as decor, they make fantastic gifts! Bundle up some of your favorite buds, tuck a 4th of July Pennant Flag inside, and gift to friends, neighbors, co-workers, hostesses…whomever you’d like to give a smile to!
These are really fun as a July 4th Door Drop Gift. Just leave them on someone’s doorstep as a sweet surprise!
A Red, Wine and Blue Gift Basket is an amazing gift idea, especially for hostesses or a new neighbor!
Simply top a patriotic-looking wine bottle with a printable Red, Wine and Blue Tag, then tuck it inside a basket with some cute patriotic napkins and wine glasses!
I found these goodies at Marshall’s for a really reasonable price and they had a super cute selection!
If your gift recipient prefers cocktails over wine, a few simple changes to the wine basket give you an adorable Red, White and Booze Gift Basket!
Simply trade the Red, Wine and Blue tag for a Red, White and Booze Tag, and swap out the wine glasses for some festive cocktail cups and straws!
Once again Marshall’s wins for the cute and affordable patriotic goodies to tuck inside the basket!
Add a “Happy 4th of July” Tag to the front of the basket for the perfect finishing touch. The tags come in red, white and blue so you can choose the color that looks best with your gift.
Adorable 4th of July Treat Bags
This just may be one of the easiest (and cutest) 4th of July Ideas ever!
If you’re looking for a 4th of July party favor, a sweet treat to serve at your cookout, a patriotic snack to hand out to your kiddos’ teammates, or a little gift to give to someone special, this is for you!
All you need to do is fill a simple ziploc sandwich bag with your favorite patriotic treat (cookies, snack mix, Rice Krispy treats, patriotic popcorn, etc.), then fold a printable 4th of July Treat Bag Topper over the top.
Seriously so cute and so, so simple!
Sidenote: I found these cookies at Target, of all places! They were selling them individually wrapped or by the bucket. Keep an eye out for them at your local Target on your next visit!
Spectacular 4th of July Sips
Bottle labels are an incredibly simply way to add pack some pizzazz into your Independence Day!
Since most 4th of July celebrations are outdoors and the temps are typically soaring, Gatorade is always a great drink choice to keep cool and replenish some electrolytes.
Why not kick those power drinks up a notch with some festive 4th of July Bottle Labels? They instantly upgrade 12 ounce bottles for the holiday and they are super cute!
The decorated Gatorades are fabulous for handing out to your kiddos’ teammates during practice or after a game, and they’re perfect for adding to your cookout cooler!
The labels are not waterproof, so to use them in a cooler, place them in a trash bag then sit the bag on ice in your cooler to keep the bottles dry but cold.
Pin for Later!
