Now that you’ve finally recovered from your 4th
of July party, you’re probably ready to turn your backyard into a party scene
again. But coming up with ideas for entertainment has you stuck. Hosting a 4th
of July party is easy; you cover everything in red, white, and blue, grill up
some burgers and dogs, and you and your guests get front row seats to your
neighbor’s fireworks show. How do you top that?
Games are always fun and prevent everyone from just standing
around. There are some awesome backyard games that pair well with fun
summer-time drinks. You could try Kan Jam, the new hit Spikeball, or the
backyard favorite: cornhole. Are your guests Harry Potter fans? If not, they
will be with this DIY
backyard Quidditch game.
For decorations: take out the holiday lights
early this year! Wrap them around tree trunks or hang them from branches to
light up your party. You could even hang a frame from a tree
branch for a fun outdoor photo booth. Gather some creative photo props for
guests to use. And for chilling the drinks, nothing is better than our very own
pub table cooler, seen below with Narragansetts on ice. If you don’t have a
cooler (how do you not?), you could use the wheelbarrow that’s already sitting
in your yard and just fill it with ice.
We have lots of other ideas to help you make your party
great on our Backyard
Summer Bash Pinterest board. We hope you have a blast and enjoy!
