My husband and I were excited to host a Fourth of July bbq for our family this year.
Here are some photos from the party.
The framed American flag was a very easy and inexpensive project I did last minute before the party. I got a frame on sale at Michaels for about $5 and the flag for less than $1
I found these great little star dishes in the candle holder and vases aisle at Wal-Mart for $1.50 each. They made perfect candy dishes (I have since found the same star dishes at Dollar Tree).
I wrapped patriotic paper around tin cans and threw in some fabric daisies I had lying around the house for an almost free centerpiece.
A few weeks before the party I started saving paper towel and toilet paper rolls to make these little rockets. Scrapbook paper and ribbon are all it takes.
Before the party I went grocery shopping with my mom for the food and drinks. She couldn't help but tease me about buying only drinks that came in a red or blue can. I can't help myself! I need cohesiveness throughout the entire setup.
Three inexpensive picture frames, a 99 cent bandana and some wooden letter cutouts from the craft store made this easy project under $10.00
I used my vinyl cutter to make new labels for the water bottles. I also love the red and white Kikkerland paper straws.
Chocolate stars adorned our cupcakes
Nothing screams summer more to me than homemade strawberry ice cream
