did you realize july fourth was next week!? wow – june just flew by. i’m off of work until after the 4th so we’re considering taking a little road trip next week since all of our friends and family are out of town. woe is me. do you have plans?! if you’re hosting something, here are some projects you still have plenty of time to do!

01 | red white and blue ice cubes to make every drink look festive (brittni for momtastic)
02 | homemade firecracker ice pops are just a touch fancier than the store bought ones (martha stewart)
03 | printable matchboxes from last year will make lighting sparklers way more fun (almost makes perfect)
04 | paint an american flag blanket if you’ll be spending the day picnicing (the house that lars built)
05 | ice pops … in cake form, for those of us that get really cold teeth (studio diy)
06 | these dip dye fireworks bags are too cute, you could also fill with nips for adults right?! (oh happy day)
