Between parades, barbecuing, and fireworks, the 4th of July is a holiday that practically forces Americans to get outside and celebrate.
Therefore, what better time to give your outdoor space a patriotic facelift?
It can be as simple as adding a few pops of bright blue flowers or a new red and white table cloth to your patio table.
The options are endless as long as they include red, white, and blue!
Today I would like to add some of the creative ways I’ve used to get ready for Independence Day.

I find my eyes gravitate towards the centerpiece when I enter a room.
Therefore, what better way to add life to a centerpiece then with flowers?
For instance, vibrant blue hydrangeas make a classic and easy centerpiece. In addition, what a fun way to shake it up by adding American flags to it.
