We watched fireworks already tonight with friends and family, and I hope that yours will be fun and safe. I love these ideas from Martha Stewart and Better Homes and Gardens for crafts, food and decorating.
I really feel that a brush up on history to help with the celebration of the holiday is essential though.
Most of these ideas can be done in any shape or color for a variety of events. Have fun!

I don't even like this holiday, but these crafts make me want to.
Such fun ideas. Our a/c died yesterday and I can not muster the energy in the 98 degree heat to move let alone craft. :(
I will bookmark for next year...
This makes me want to be a better American.

Hi Lisa - I'm glad that I found your blog...I also noticed you're a clown! How cool! We did some clowning back in young women's and I thought it was so much fun! You're so cute! Come see me won't you? -Jocelyn
