{entertaining} Last-Minute Fourth of July Ideas

Happy Monday, friends!  Can you believe it is July already?  Have any fun plans for the week?  We are keeping it low-key around here, but I thought I’d make a roundup of a few fun ideas anyway.  I’ll host a fun Fourth of July party one of these years 🙂

1. I liked the layered look of this red, white and blue tablescape.  Definitely a fun idea if you were having a more formal meal.
2. Chocolate dipped pretzels would make a super cute party favor.  Put a few in a long plastic bag (they have tons of options at places like Michael’s or Hobby Lobby), tie with a ribbon and done!
3. Having a night-time gathering?  Tealights in bottles (maybe Mason jars?) make great luminaries. 
4. These Berry Sundaes are quick to prepare and nutritious too!
5. Need a decoration idea?  These star medallions are cute and will be easy to reuse year after year. 
6. Quick and easy snack idea while you’re waiting for the fireworks: red licorice wrapped in colorful paper.
