What a beautiful day! The weather was perfect for our annual 4th of July potluck. We usually have 40-50 family and friends to help us celebrate in style. This year I wanted to have a "Fireworks" party theme. In Texas, fireworks are prohibited in the city, so I decided to let the fireworks be in my design and decor!

• 

  Every party needs a flag!

• 

  Our "Fireworks Party" Door Banner!
•  
• The door banner is great way to welcome your guests to your party. Bright and festive colors will be a great addition to your patriotic party theme.

  Front Yard Banner - Double Sided & Laminated
•  
• I dressed up the outdoor planters with red, white, and blue flowers. I added patriotic flags to finish the look.

• 

  Tent cards and toppers used as decorations in the bathroom
•  
• I used cards and cupcake toppers throughout the house to decorate, even in the bathroom!
•  
• 

  Beverage Station
•  
• 

  Beverage Cards for large drink dispensers
•  
• I have different stations for food, beverage, over 21, and desserts. This allows more room with large parties. The beverage table was a lot of fun, and the snow cone machine was a HUGE hit too!

• 

  Small flag banners dress up flower pots
•  
• Party favor cards and appetizer cards are a great way to dress up your party. I used several appetizer cards for my dessert table. I used a folded tent cards and flat cards to decorate throughout the house. I love using flags to decorate the flower pots!

  Tent Cards used for decoration
•  
• I love to use cards to decorate around the house! The colorful red tones look great against a dark blue tablecloth.

  Front Yard Banner - Double Sided & Laminated
•  
• I love to re-use my double sided laminated banner! It says "WELCOME" on one side, and "HAPPY 4th" on the other. As long as they are the same number of letters, any phrase is possible!

Cupcake toppers used as decorations in flower pots

  Our Party Invitation - Laminated
•  
• For our 2014 Party, I chose , the "Fireworks Party" invitation. The fun firework graphics and patriotic text make this invite a classic design that never goes out of style!
•  
• 

  Beverage Wraps
•  
• I love my new acrylic beverage dispensers! They are lightweight - won't break easy, and they hold a TON of liquid! I love to celebrate the color of the beverage. For the "Cherry Stripes" is cherry drink, "Liberty Water" is water, and Berry Stars is blue berry drink - so easy!

  Freedom Party Banner (laminated)
•  
• I love to my laminated banners! They are easy to store, and look great year after year (with loving care). One side says "FREEDOM" and the other side says "LIBERTY".

• Corn dog bites are a HUGE hit every year! I serve them with several types of mustard and ketchup. Super yummy!

  Recipe Card - Corn Dog Muffins

• Place Card - Back

•  
• I had a lot of fun decorating the coordinating items that match the Fireworks Party invitation! I created new accessories to match my most popular designs.
•  
• 

  Featured Drinks Card
•  
• I designed a fun drink card to match, and loved the way the colors turned out! Using a featured drink card is a great way to highlight a few festive drinks. These drink cards are perfect for highlighting festive drinks that match your party theme. I laminate my beverage cards so I can use them over and over!

• 

  Trash Receptacle Sign (laminated)
•  
• I have laminated "TRASH" and "RECYCLE" signs that I use every year to help guide guests so they don't throw my silverware and plates away!

  Mila loves sparklers!

• Thank you to everyone who came to help us celebrate our Independence day in style! We had a wonderful time - See you next year!
