Shop Bandanarama, Juicy Watermelon, and Picnic Basket party supplies for the Fourth of July!
The Fourth of July is nearly here! Are you ready to celebrate? July 4 parties call for celebratory fanfare, but without the fuss and formalities of other occasions. It’s all about getting together with friends and family to have fun, relax, and celebrate America.
For food, heat up the grill and cook classic favorites like hot dogs, brats and metts, burgers, corn, and potatoes. Mix up some cold, summery salads for side dishes, and bake some corn bread to mop it all up. Remember to be careful serving mayo-based salads outside! Avoid mayonnaise if you can, or keep the salads chilled over ice or in the refrigerator.
For dessert, mix up a berry salad featuring in-season strawberries and blueberries. Whip together heavy cream and sugar right before the party to make a delicious and fresh whipped cream to dip the berries in. Homemade ice cream is all the rage this summer, so invest in an ice cream maker for the Fourth, whip up a batch, and serve it alongside a bevy of toppings.
For easy-breezy cleanup, use disposable plates, napkins, and cutlery in a festive pattern. We offer a variety of summery and patriotic options, which can be found with our summer party supplies.
Keep your guests entertained with lawn games like croquet and bocce ball. Fill up water balloons, get the sprinklers going, and provide an assortment of water toys to keep the kids having fun and keeping cool. Keep lots of SPF and bug spray on-hand!
Once the sun goes down, stage a firefly-catching contest and light up some sparklers. Provide lots of lawn chairs, blankets, and pillows for a late-night fireworks show.
