Summer will soon be here with TWO patriotic holidays that are some of our favorite days for backyard BBQ celebrations with our family and friends.
Treat your party guests to some patriotic party gear so everyone can get their stars and stripes on even if they didn't show up to the party already wearing red, white and blue. It will add to the festive mood and get everyone into the party spirit!
Patriotic Party Gear Ideas:
- When your guests arrive to your event, have a table near the entrance stacked high with hats, jewelry and other patriotic party gear.
- Set up a photo booth! Have a designated station for taking photos complete with a photo printer or instant camera so your guests can display their photos for everyone to see.
- Have a contest! See how can come up with the best combination of party gear to let the red, white and blue shine. Have a fun prize for the winner!
Red, White and Blue Party Gear:
You can keep the cost of your patriotic party gear low shopping at DollarTree.com, where everything is just a dollar each. These are just a few of the many red, white and blue options the have:
Patriotic Flashing Star Beaded NecklacesPatriotic Printed Bandannas
Patriotic Flower Leis
Patriotic Headband Boppers
Patriotic Fairy Wings
Mini Plastic Patriotic Hats
Patriotic Wands
There is lots more to choose from at DollarTree.com. If you want to let your guests (especially the kids!) get really creative, you can also have some glitter, markers, scissors and glue sticks on hand to let them use your red, white and blue party supplies like paper plates and plastic cups to design their own creations!

These popcorn balls are so cute! I’m just realizing I don’t have any patriotic party gear – I must get some!

I love these ideas. We never have a 4th without decorations and party favors. Decorations are half the fun of the party!

Those are so fun! I love the headbands. I get super goofy when we have get togethers. It’s a huge part of the fun!

I love these ideas! I especially need the bobbing red-white-and-blue antennae. I’m sure my boys wouldn’t be embarrassed even a little bit. Especially my teen.
