Memorial Day kicks off the summer season at the lake. Patriotic decor and entertaining themes work well for us all season long so I love finding new ideas to inspire me. Here are some of my favorites. I like them because they are easy while still being beautiful.
Foods
This healthy fruit tray in a flag design is simple and pretty!
Crowd pleasing cupcakes are made patriotic with a red, white and blue topping.
This strawberry-blueberry limeade looks so refreshing!
A red, white and blue fruit and feta salad is a summer favorite!
Decor
I love this easy and classic front door decor.
Simply adding flags to summer arrangements gives just the right touch for Memorial Day and holiday weekends.
This was my patriotic porch decor last year. You can see more details here.
Crafts
Get the kids involved in this simple craft and use it to decorate your porch or hang from the trees. Inside you can drape them from your mantel.
Paint Mason jars with stars and stripes, then add flowers. This centerpiece is easy and inexpensive.
Tin can windsocks can be made with just a few supplies and become festival holiday decor.
