Make an easy and affordable decorative centerpiece for your July 4th tablescape. Decorate white pillar candles from the dollar store with star shaped blingy stickers and place in an inexpensive glass vase. Create an elegant floral piece by adding blue glass vase filler, red floral wire in a vase and submerge and orchid or another bloom to the vase.
Make Red, White and Blue ice cream cone cupcakes! Bake cupcakes in ice cream cones and top with patriotic frosting!
For a festive place setting, use a paper rosette as a sleeve for sparkler sticks! Simply make a small paper rosette, attach a 2" circle to two sparkler sticks - you can also add a bit of embellishment....I just punched a smaller circle to a washi tape covered thumbtack and stuck it into the center of the circle. Adhere the circle to the rosette with glue dots.
Make a patriotic fruit pizza with the kids with sugar cookie dough, vanilla frosting and berries!
Make simple paper lanterns patriotic by attaching a blue fringe tassel to red and white paper globes!
Create a mini bunting using red, white and blue streamers. I made this by cutting the streamers into 6" cuts and folding accordion style, then pinched and glued one edge together towards the center to create a semi-circle bunting shape and then attached by folding over the top of the bunting to a length of twine.
End your July 4th celebration with a BANG.....or at least a little sparkle. Set up a sparkler station on a bar cart and place in decorated pails and baskets.
