Happy (almost) 4th of July!

Ok, so I totally let this year slip by me. With all the summer activity going on around me, I never had (or made) the time for the Independence Day crafts I wanted to do. SOOOOOOOOOOO....in the spirit of passing ideas on....behold....what I would have done if I had not been a total slacker laying around a pool...

Star Spangled Welcome
This little beaut. is from the Family Fun magazine, which I love.

Oh, Snap!
The ladies over at Eighteen25 always have the cutest printables, and I just so happen to have a ton of snap dragons.

Firecracker Smores on a Stick
Don't they look pretty? I may still try to pull these off for the actual 4th.. Whimsical Creations always has yummy goods.

Decorative Pom Poms
Craft Caboose did a fun job with these, and I think they would be great decor for that 4th of J. BBQ. I've seen a lot of tissue paper pom poms out there lately.

Ohhhh, there are so many cute, fun, and festive things out there to be done to celebrate! However, we are off tomorrow for vacation, so I doubt I will be able to do any of them. Boo.

Anyway, enjoy the freedom we Americans have and have a safe 4th of July!

    i totally made some tissue pom poms to hang over the table for valentines day a couple of years ago and Ike absolutely loved them. They are so easy, but they look so great :) Happy 4th!

    Ahhh! I dog-eared that page in my copy of Family Fun with that easy cool wreath! Of course you loved it too - since we are the same. :) Those snap dragons are a really cute idea. Totally gonna do that!

    Okay, the smores on a stick can be made to suit any holiday or ordinary day. I LOVE anything with marshmallows!
