The staple of any Fourth of July party is the American flag. You can find an American flag at most big box stores like Lowe's, but you can also get inside and outside American flags in a variety of sizes from Americanflags.com.
Make sure your table is set with all the right decorations. You can get tablecloths, cutlery, napkins and plates all in one kit, so you can easily deck out your table. Find festive party supplies at Amazon or Walmart.
Everyone’s favorite drink needs to stay cold during the party, so make sure you have enough koozies for everyone to go around. You can get funny president-related koozies from Oriental Trading or at Walmart.
Party favors are always appreciated, and beaded necklaces are the perfect, budget-friendly options all your guests will appreciate. Amazon has a variety pack of red, white and blue beaded necklaces. Oriental Trading also has a simpler, 48-piece pack of necklaces.
Kids and adults alike love sparklers. They’re the PC version of fireworks that are much safer and quieter. Walmart has both six packs of sparklers or a 72-pack for anyone throwing a huge get-together.
Since most Fourth of July parties happen outdoors, keeping the bugs away is a whole project. Citronella candles can get the job done, plus you can easily find candles that are still on-theme. Amazon has a two-pack of American flag citronella candles. Tiki also has a bucket-sized candle for long-term burning.
Show off your array of drinks with an inflatable American flag cooler. They’re like mini swimming pools, but for all your drinks. Just inflate and add ice, and you can throw water, beer and everything in between right in. Find a few different options at Amazon or Oriental Trading.
Adorn your door with a Fourth of July wreath. It’s an easy way to show off your love for our country during the entire summer. Amazon has a wreath made of white, red and blue flowers, or there’s a more classic wreath made of American flag bunting you can get from Lowe's.
