4th of July

Happy (early) 4th of July! In case you're planning a party or get together with friends and family, I thought I would share some of my favorite ideas for the holiday.

Two years ago we threw a 4th of July party/cookout right after we moved into our house. It was a lot of fun. I made bunting from scrapbook paper and ribbon and painted terracotta pots to hold festive flowers on the deck. I also made a red, white and blue layer cake... yum! And of course, dressing up the dogs is always fun on a holiday. A red, white, and blue bandanna looks super cute!

Here are some other great ideas from Pinterest. Click the picture to take you to the source. 

Aren't those some awesome ideas? Happy 4th of July!!
