It is officially summer and before we know it, 4th of July will be here!
I’ve always LOVED July 4th!! Grills are burning, fireworks are popping, and celebrating summer and our country with friends and family is simply the best. We’ll be enjoying the 4th this year with my fam, and I’m excited to spend it with my sweet nieces and nephews. Kids always make holidays more fun!!
If you’re throwing a party or in need of a hostess gift, I’ve rounded up some of my favorite patriotic décor and entertaining pieces! I’m also doing another GIVEAWAY!! The winner will receive a $50 VISA gift card to use toward one of these items… or anything for your 4th of July party! You can enter the giveaway several ways:

Ice Cream Bowls It is definitely ice cream season!! How adorable are these vintage-looking hand-painted ice cream bowls?! I love that each one has a different pattern in the set. Also, they are pretty deep which is necessary for several scoops of Blue Bell. 🙂
Flag Pillows I love the cream stars and stripes on these pillows instead of a stark white… it lends to a more charming, rustic feel and would look cute on a porch swing or cream colored couch.
Burlap Flag Banner I don’t always love burlap but the small amount on this American flag bunting banner is SO cute! It would be perfect to hang outside for a party, or even on your mantel.
Wood Star Garland If you aren’t into the burlap flag banner, this lightweight, wood star garland from Target is more delicate and adds a just a touch of festive flair.
Blue Gingham Napkins Gingham is so cute for summer! These navy blue napkins would be perfect to mix and match with the red stripe napkins I have linked below. Add these galvanized star napkin rings from Pottery Barn for a little extra patriotism!
Red Striped Napkins Another fun touch to your table!
Star Cookie Cutters Perfect for star cookies or cutting out dough to place on top of your berry pie!
Stars & Stripes Cupcake Liners Get your bake on for the 4th with these patriotic cupcake liners! Since these liners are already so festive, keep things simple with a white buttercream frosting on your cupcakes. Also, I love that the company who makes these (Simply Baked) are 100% woman owned… love supporting women entrepreneurs and their businesses!
Red, White, & Blue Cupcake Liners You can never have enough cupcake wrappers, so here’s another option for your 4th of July cupcakes.
Striped Dessert Plates These striped plates come in both red and blue and would be so cute to mix and match for your 4th of July party. The contrast of the gold rim makes it so chic too!
So tell me, how are you celebrating the 4th of July?!
