fourth of july {inspiration}
We are planning a little Fourth of July party with some friends and family. I love having parties and I love celebrating the Fourth! I was looking around for a little party inspiration and thought I'd share some of my favorites...
I love the pinwheel idea, so today I decided to try to make some of my own. I think I'm going to use them as center pieces on our picnic tables...if it isn't too windy {you never know in Kansas}.
I used this tutorial. They were so easy to make. Now I just need some more scrapbook paper to finish up.
I gathered up as many red, white, and blue things as I could find around the house. Our party won't be quite as elaborate as the parties above {although they are so pretty}. I am trying to use as much as I can from around the house and from Joel's birthday last year. This weekend will be full of sprucing up the yard, party details, and time with friends. Can't wait!

Oh Jessica, looks like it's going to be beautiful! I'm loving the pinwheels, too... in fact I just made a wreath this past week! And I absolutely love the cake... I'm wondering if I'm brave enough to try it!
