How To: Temporary Tattoos from Real Flowers

April 16, 2015 by Shellie Wilson

tatts-from-real-flowers

So a little warning – the blog name contains a rude word. So – be warned. Although, there are no rude words in the text of this wonderful idea.

4th-july-treats-patriotic-food-party-bbq-quick-easy

There’s something magical about the 4th of July that brings everyone together—family, food, fireworks, and of course, all the red, white, and blue treats your heart can handle. In our house, the celebrations start early and end with sticky fingers, frosting-smeared smiles, and empty dessert platters. I’ve always loved creating festive goodies, but now that my kids are older, it’s even more fun. They help in the kitchen, request their favorite patriotic treats, and even try putting their own spin on a recipe or two.

Over the years, I’ve discovered that a table full of eye-catching, holiday-themed snacks does more than satisfy a sweet tooth—it sets the tone for the day. Whether we’re headed to a backyard BBQ, watching fireworks from the driveway, or just enjoying a slow summer afternoon together, these 4th of July desserts have become part of our family tradition.

From easy no-bake treats to star-spangled cookies and decadent layered desserts, this roundup includes a little bit of everything—because everyone deserves a bite of something sweet while waving sparklers in the air. So grab your M&Ms, your favorite sprinkles, and let’s get into these 25+ festive 4th of July recipes that are so good, they might just outshine the fireworks.
