Patriotic Bunting

Patriotic bunting, or pleated fan flags are perfect for 4th of July yard decoration ideas. This bold patriotic fabric makes a big impact on your space regardless of patio or porch size. Bunting flags are a fun way to dress up your July porch. Use them hanging from your eaves or drape across your porch railing.

To hang these I used command strips, so they can easily be removed without damage. I found these Independence Day decorations on Amazon for a great deal so I snatched them up. (view them here) These provide an amazing punch of patriotic colors for all to see.

Patriotic Wreath

Another fun option is displaying July wreaths on your front door. What better way to greet your visitors than with a dose of patriotic spirit for your July celebration.

On my front doors I added a star shape wreath over the top of my white tulip wreaths for a layered look. The vibrant reds really pop against the white flowers underneath. If you don't have wreaths to layer the star wreath would be so cute by themselves as well.

Patriotic Planters for 4th of July Yard Decoration

Flowers

If you really want to get creative, strategically plan for patriotic outdoor decorations with your planter containers. Choose a floral palette for your pots that focuses on blue flowers, white flowers and red flowers.

Here are a few floral options that are great for planters:

  • white petunias
  • white vinca
  • blue lobelias
  • red, white or blue pansies
  • beautiful red poppies
  • daisies

Planters

Another easy way to bring in these primary colors is through your flower pots. The copper hues tie in nicely to the red palette. A white or blue flowerpot are also a great option for these outdoor areas.

Throw pillows are an excellent option for bringing in color and comfort to your outdoor decorations. I added a cute pillow and throw to my porch swing where we spend a lot of time in during summer. Throw blankets are another item you can use to soften the space while adding style and texture.
