Decorating A Patriotic “Christmas” Tree For The Fourth Of July

Decorating A Patriotic Christmas Tree For The Fourth of July

Summer is here in Eastern North Carolina and today the temps are soaring into the mid 90’s. The beaches are busy but I am not one of the brave souls trekking over the hot sand to catch some rays. Truth is, I am not a fan of heat and humidity so I have been hiding in the air conditioning as much as possible.

Summer also brings us days of relaxing in the pool, barbecues, fireflies, the lovely sound of crickets, Independence Day and Christmas in July sales. Speaking of Christmas, today I am going to give you a reason to drag your Christmas trees out of storage and incorporate them into your summer decor. Decorating a Patriotic Christmas tree for the Fourth of July is a fun way to dress up your home with a little red, white and blue.

You can still get it all dressed up for the Fourth of July. Although purchasing a Christmas tree in the summer would be a daunting task, the good news is that stores will be chock full of patriotic themed decor. Decorate your own tree with small American flags, ribbon with stars or stripes and top it off with a metal barn star.
