Fourth of July may be a little different this year, but that it doesn’t mean you still can’t have fun! While it’s still suggested we don’t have large gatherings and a lot of city celebrations are canceled, celebrating the Fourth of July at home is just perfect! 🇺🇸

Sparklers, Fireworks & More!
I grew up watching fireworks and playing with sparklers, which I still love. A lot of places start popping up selling fireworks a few weeks beforehand, but I always recommend checking to make sure you don’t have neighbors who have PTSD. Many, but not all, former service members have issues with hearing loud gunshot like noises- very much like fireworks and a lot of animals have issues as well. While I’m not saying *don’t* do fireworks, just remember to be considerate. We all know those people who shoot off fireworks for weeks at all times of the night. Don’t be one of those people.
Sparklers are my hands down favorite! They’re fun to play with and also make for some cute photos once the sun has gone down. You can usually grab them from Target or Walmart.
I hope these recipe, craft and decor ideas help you have the best Fourth of July possible this year! 🇺🇸
