INSIDE: How to make a fun USA patriotic banner from paper goodie bags, cocktail napkins and scrapbook paper. Easy 4th July home decor.

How do you celebrate the Red, White and Blue? In our pre-kids life, we would lounge around the pool and enjoy any excuse for a patriotic beverage.


But now with three cute “party crashers”, these summer holidays are spent doing something. It’s either heading to a small town 4th of July parade as we drag along snacks and sunscreen, or chasing three kids going in three directions at a local carnival.

Patriotic chaos aside, these summer holidays are always a good excuse to pull anything red, white and blue out of the decoration closet.

Secure the bow with some craft twine.

  2. I honestly couldn’t love this idea more, as not only does it look relatively easy to make, but also inexpensive, too. So, definitely going to try this out for the 4th of July and can’t thank you enough for sharing with us for The Summer Summer Blog Hop!! 🙂

  3. Nice meeting you on Janine’s blog, Victoria. You and I could “hang” as I love anywhere with a beach and a view as well. And Coronado – beautiful. I also loved your answer to her question about your proudest accomplishment. That isn’t easy to achieve, but it sure pays rewards for years and years. Love the banner – patriotic crafts are one of my favorites:)
