It’s no secret that I love festive and celebratory clothing. For this Independence Day, I chose a patriotic romper because it so adorably represents the land of the free because of the brave. The flag especially means a lot to me, since I’m a military wife and we’re a military family. We would love to see how you and your babiekins represent America this year — and we wish you all a wonderful holiday!

It’s 4th of July weekend, a celebration of American Independence that includes enjoying BBQ, family, friends, fireworks and hopefully some fun in the sun. The most patriotic way for your babiekins to celebrate Independence Day and to salute the American flag is to match it by wearing stars and stripes. Stars are a trend in apparel and accessories that are fashionable and classic enough to wear even after the 4th of July day. I have a round-up of some adorable fashions that will have you seeing stars and wanting to pledge allegiance to the American flag. Enjoy and have a wonderful and safe 4th of July weekend!

The Fourth of July is one of my favorite holidays. I love the idea of families coming together to celebrate our great nation’s independence. If you really think about it, it’s a pretty big deal! Not to mention the distinct aromas of BBQ and fireworks. It’s one of the only holidays in our family, where everyone gets into the spirit and wears red, white, and blue. I was definitely inspired this year by the laid back style of the 70’s. The iconic Americana feel of that era reminds me of a classic time in our history and makes for a perfect fourth of July outfit for boys and girls!

It’s hard to believe, but the 4th of July is right around the corner. With that, comes all the fun projects and parties! These 4th of July Sprinkle Fireworks are the perfect addition to a summer soiree for the kids OR the adults! They’re flame-less so they’re safe for all ages and they make the ice cream eating easy! (Not that it wasn’t easy already.)
They’re made by simply decorating empty push pop cups with colorfully patterned paper and double-stick tape! Once they’re wrapped, fill them with sprinkles and you’re set!
An explosion of sprinkles sounds like the perfect treat on a summer afternoon.
I can envision this working for a slew of different holidays. Perhaps some silver & gold sprinkles for New Year’s Eve?
It’s the perfect way to get kids feeling patriotic and it will help everyone stay cool! To see more pictures and the full detailed how-to, visit the Shop Sweet Lulu blog! You can also purchase everything you need for this project in their shop!
