We are changing up Foodie Friday this week, as I sometimes like to do. With the 4th just around the corner, it is time to start planning your party. The fireworks certainly take center stage, but your tablescape should be a showstopper, too. I say embrace the red, white & blue, but keep it chic, too. Don't worry, next Friday will feature fabulous recipes for the holiday. Here's how to make the sparkling Sprinkle Cake above.
Everything You Need to Host a Fab Fourth of July Party
Create your own fireworks with these fun and festive fans and party decorations. Hang them from the ceiling or on the wall. They make a perfect backdrop for a family photo booth.

Hot Dogs and the 4th of July are a perfect pair. In fact there is a National Hot Dog eating contest every year on this date. It's always good to have the right serving pieces. These are great. They match any decor and are compostable!

Strawberry & Basil Pie
From Brooklyn's famed Butter & Scotch. This pie is both classic and creative. It is shipped frozen so it will be oven fresh for the 4th.
Be sure to look to Serena and Lily for a little red, white, and blue inspiration....you will find it in every department. I love how they have styled this outdoor dining picture. Shop The Look:

One of my favorite things. I own this. "Shop This" brings it to you again, and this time it is on sale. I can imagine bringing this as a host gift for your 4th of July weekend. Or consider making pizzas as appetizers at your 4th of July Barbecue. Best yet, who doesn't like pizza at any time of the year?

Think about using these boards for service instead of cutting. Love them for appetizers, Mrs. Prindable's Apples, Cheese, shot glasses and more! They would be great looking in multiples.
