It’s midway through Summer, and the biggest holiday of the season is right around the corner. Our Independence Day tempts you to go away for the weekend to enjoy the Holiday festivities, but why leave the comfort of your own home if you don’t have to. Make your home the place to be when the fireworks explode on the night of Fourth of July.

Interior Decorations for the Fourth:
Although the main spectacle of the Holiday happens at night in the sky, you can decorate your home to exemplify the festivities. Color your house in Red, White, and Blue; and show your patriotic side. If you have a simple mantelpiece or a long horizontal shelf in your home, a few decorations can do wonders. In the picture below, the addition of patriotic colors and figurines catches everyone’s attention while staying true to the holiday.
A simple set-up like in the picture can go a long way, when you host for the Fourth of July. If you don’t happen to have a mantelpiece or a shelf to set-up this display, we have multiple products to duplicate a similar array. Our decorative shelving attaches to all walls, and can hold a significant amount of weight.
What Drinks/Food to Prepare for the Fourth:
It’s a holiday, and everyone is allowed to splurge. Concoct something that everyone would want to try and even want the recipe. Bonus points if you can find a way to include Red, White, and Blue in your beverages and food. Punchbowl.com provides hundreds of recipes for drinks. A highly-recommended drink to serve on the Fourth of July is “Red, White, and Blue Sangria“. Made with fresh fruit, this beverage is the perfect adult refreshment for your party.


Although the Sangria satisfies the adults of the party, you need something to satisfy the kids and teenagers, as well. If you stick to the patriotic colors and suffice anyone’s sweet tooth, you can satisfy the entire party. Found on the Betty Crocker website, this Flag Cupcake Cake will have the all the children drooling, and even some of the adults. This recipe is so good, you might have to make two.
Outdoor Setup for the Fourth:
The Sun has just set, and everyone awaits the big spectacle. Although everyone’s focus is on the sky, a comfortable outdoor setup will impress the entire party. They might not notice it visually, but they will notice the comfortableness. The best part is that this set-up is so simple and inexpensive, but emits a sense of luxury. Everyone could enjoy these hammocks while watching in awe of the firework display.

These are just a couple tips on how to celebrate the Fourth of July at home. Enjoy your Holiday and Happy Birthday America.
