Cheerful 4th of July Backyard Picnic Party
Everyone loves a garden picnic on Independence Day with the sun shining over to enliven the festive mood. Though outdoor picnic spots are likely to be closed in these uncertain circumstances, you can still have a great time by transforming your grassy backyard into a lovely picnic spot while staying safe in your home. So throw our white and red checkered raffia picnic spread in your grassy mini meadow to infuse the colors of patriotism and head out with your picnic basket filled with all the red, white, and blue treats for a fantastic backyard picnic. Moreover, use our stylish disposable dinnerware to give a chic look to your picnic spread which will also make clean up after the party a lot easier. In case you are missing your annual 4th of July neighborhood block party, let everyone join in on the fun and swap picnic baskets with your neighbors for a joyous and fun 4th of July activity.
Delightful Backyard Cookout
Fourth of July celebration is surely incomplete without a lavish barbeque feast. Plan a cookout in your backyard with your friends and family for the ultimate holiday experience. Set up a barbeque station and cover your table with our red and white striped satin tablecloth and swathe a sparkling navy blue sequin table runner along the middle for majestic star-spangled table décor. Use our red metallic string placemats for your table settings and place royal blue rimmed disposable dinner plates with gold starry paper napkins on top to create a perfectly patriotic spot to feed your guests. Brighten up your tablescape with some LED candles, sparklers, and gorgeous flower centerpieces giving a riveting appeal to your festive table. Moreover, prepare for one of the most legendary 4th of July activities for adults—the hot dog eating contest and keep some striped paper napkins on the side to let your guests grab those straight from the grill hotdogs, incorporating the iconic stripes and star motifs for an inspiring Independence Day table décor.
