Ten cute and simple 4th of July crafts, decor and entertaining ideas.
If you're hosting over the July 4th holiday, these projects can be knocked out pretty quick. And the easy food ideas are great for entertaining.
These red white and blue dipped pretzels from The 36th Avenue are super festive and I'll be making them for sure:

I've made these at Christmas and they are GOOD.
You know I love a good printable! This inexpensive watercolor flag printable can be downloaded and printed at home in minutes.
It's is an easy way to add some red white and blue without spending much money:
You seriously can't go wrong with these -- I use the same frames for my seasonal printables around the house and just change them up.
Make your own festive garland with paper and this easy tutorial from Nest of Posies:
So cute! Star craft punches would make an adorable garland too!
For our porch this year, I threw a festive wreath together using the grapevine wreath I use over and over again and some sparkly stars from the craft store:
And then hung these cute red, white and blue pinwheels from nails on the beam that spans our front porch:
So cute and so easy! The pinwheels are paper, but I think they'll be protected enough from the elements.

This delicious strawberry pretzel dessert is a summer staple around here, and such a great dish for a 4th of July get together:
My mouth is watering just thinking of it...so good! Add some blueberries for a patriotic look. :)
I LOVE this idea from The Concrete Cottage to paint the lawn with stars! Not sure my husband would love it as much as me. He loves his lawn!:
It would be fun to make lawn games for the kids with these -- try "star Twister" and put them in the Twister design on the lawn. Or place them in lines for a throwing game with corn hole bags. Fun!
Here's another simple printable Landee See, Landee Do that could stay up all year round:
Here are a couple of my easy projects as well! These mason jar flag lanterns are so easy to throw together!:
And this DIY flag pillow is one of my favorite seasonal hacks ever:
