It's the little details that can make a big difference.
When it comes to entertaining, I love tying together the decor, dinnerware, and even food to create a theme around a cohesive color combo. The 4th of July theme is, thankfully, pretty easy when it comes to colors: you can't go wrong with good 'ol red, white, and blue!
Yesterday, I shared 5 Quick & Easy Ideas for a Fabulous 4th of July.
One of those ideas is to use a free 4th of July printable I designed to help you entertain like a pro, whether you are throwing a super casual backyard BBQ or hosting a big holiday bash.
Free 4th of July printable
This smaller sized banner helps add big impact to your Independence Day celebration.
Each triangle is approximately 4.25" tall by 2.5" wide. There are four triangles (two red, two blue) per sheet. Download, and print as many as you want to create your banner.

1. Download the Free 4th of July Printable PDF and save to your desktop.
2. Open the file.
3. Print on your home computer. I suggest printing onto 65 - 100# white matte cardstock.
4. Using scissors, cut around each of the four triangles.
5. Using a standard hole punch, punch two holes at the top of each upside down triangle. Thread string through the hole punches and display as you wish.
Since this is a smaller banner, I suggest using as a backdrop at your food table, as I did in the photos above, or string along picnic tables and bar carts. You can also string several along to help create sections within your picnic area, or help section off your picnic area from the general public.
I hope you enjoy the free 4th of July banner I designed for you! It is a simple way to help add some spark to your Independence Day celebration.
