I needed a cute centerpiece for my dining room table to last me through the summer. I was looking for something with the red, white, and blue theme so I could leave it out from May to September! I went to the dollar store and bought this cute pot, two bouquets of flowers, some foam, the place,mat and the two candles. For $6, I have a cute centerpiece to use for years to come!

We had this arrangement of flowers and flags on the BBQ table for Memorial Day, and now we will use it for 4th of July. I change the centerpiece decorations for fall and Christmas. In the spring, I use pastel colors.
A nice, thrifty 4th of July holiday decoration is to gather a bouquet of the flower called "Queen Ann's Lace". Add a few drops of red food coloring in a vase and a few drops of blue food coloring in another vase.
Make this cute red, white and blue centerpiece by decorating a large jar with ribbons, stickers and other items. This page shows how to make a quick and easy patriotic decorative jar.
