If you’re the entertainer of the group and plan on hosting
the festivities at your home, here are 4 ingredients to focus on for the ultimate

- Patriotic Party Decorations – Based on the idea of incorporating stars and stripes and red, white and blue, the possibilities are truly endless. So why not take your decorations to the next level and create some pieces that are homemade? This idea for flameless party crackers is perfect for a party with lots of young children, or, this list of budget-friendly decorating ideas that will keep your décor unique and festive – without breaking the bank.
- Celebratory Cuisine – We’re not saying
to forget the hotdogs, hamburgers and ordinary staples. It wouldn’t be a party
without someone manning the grill. But, here are some mouthwatering appetizer
ideas to take your food spread to the next level. These Sloppy
Joe Sliders require minimal prep time and are small enough to eat without
making a total mess. Provide something fresh for the heat with this delicious Avocado

about this Pretzel
Ring Beer Cheese Dip? We’re already drooling.
- 4th of July Inspired Festivities – Don’t forget about the games! Keep your guests entertained all day long with fun activities for adults and children alike. Pull out the cornhole, horseshoes, sports balls and more. Consider doing something 4th of July themed, like hosting a trivia game full of these unique 4th of July Trivia Facts.
No matter what food, fun, and décor your decide on, be sure to cover the basics. Have enough chairs, blankets for after the sun goes down and of course don’t forget to have fun!
