I’m so excited to share with y’all some 4th of July party ideas today and at the bottom of this post is a link to the full party printables (only available for a limited time)! I love the 4th of July! I love what it stands for and I love getting all our friends and family together. I thought this year we would have a Americana picnic in a huge open field that the kids could run around in. Using the classic red, blue and white color scheme, we popped in burlap and natural color elements to give it a classic rustic feel.

This table is so easy to recreate! Using paper fans from Target and Party City, I just glued them onto foam core and tied the board onto the front of the table apron. Then I laid a piece of burlap over the top of the table for a runner and you’re done!

One of my favorite things to do is color my water or milk for a party with food coloring. The kids are so excited to drink the mystery drinks and topped with some cute straws and flags pulls all the decor together.

I also created a little area for the kids to rest. These kids get tired from all the running around, so I laid out a blanket and some pillows from the house. They love when they have spots created just for them!

A jar of flags perched on some old suitcases act like mini tables – the perfect height for little hands.
