Share the holiday spirit with your neighbors: your garden is an ideal place for July 4th decorations. You can even use the things that you already have in your garden and just alter them a little. For example, if you have flowerpots, pick the three of the same size and shape and paint them in blue, white, and red. It would be great if the flowers in the pots are of these colors, too.

If you have some extra cash, you can buy paper lanterns – they are not expensive, and you can use them for your birthday party ideas later. Place several patriotic lanterns in your garden.

Go to the kitchen and find three similar jars. Pour some water in the jars, and place a flag and a flower into each one. Now wrap the jars with the ribbons, and place them on one of your tables.

FAQ: 4th Of July Decorations

When should you put up 4th of July decorations?

There is a lot of patriotic decor at pre-Memorial Day sales, and it is up for at least a week before the event. As long as the outside decor remains clean and undamaged until Labor Day, it is perfectly OK and acceptable to leave up.

Is bunting appropriate for Memorial Day?

During other American holidays, many people prefer to exhibit their flag bunting. Memorial Day, Armistice Day and Labor Day are among them. Flag bunting, no matter what you do with it, is a representation of the national flag. Remember to treat it in a dignified manner.

Are you supposed to fly the flag at half-mast on Memorial Day?

The flag must only be flown at half-staff from sunrise until noon on Memorial Day. According to the US Department of Veterans Affairs, it should be raised quickly to the top of the hierarchy, until nightfall.
