Whether you're gearing up for the Fourth of July, Memorial Day, Veterans Day, or simply want to show your American pride year-round, here's how to transform your Tribeca Spruce into a beacon of red, white, and blue.
Now for the fun part – layering in those vibrant reds and clean whites!
Ribbons & Garlands: This is arguably the easiest and most impactful way to introduce your colors.
Bold Red Ribbons: Drape wide, satin red ribbons through the branches, creating flowing cascades. You can tie bows at various points or simply let them weave organically.
Crisp White Garlands: Opt for white bead garlands, faux pearl strands, or even delicate white tinsel to provide contrast and brightness against the blue and red.
Stars & Stripes: Look for ribbons or garlands that incorporate subtle stars and stripes patterns for an extra touch of Americana.
Ornaments with Meaning: Think beyond just traditional spheres.
Red & White Ball Ornaments: Of course, classic red and white ball ornaments are a must. Vary their sizes and finishes (matte, shiny, glitter) for visual interest.
Star-Shaped Ornaments: Glittering red or white stars are perfect for a patriotic theme. Consider some with a distressed or rustic finish for a charming touch.
Mini American Flags: Tuck small, delicate American flags into the branches for a truly special accent. They add a touch of reverence and history.
*Remember artificial Christmas trees are not just for Christmas anymore. They can be decorated year round. Last year, I decorated my gifted King flock Slim tree with pumpkins and fall colors.

ReplyDeleteHappy Independence Day later this week -- you're all set for it!
ReplyDeleteI love Independece Day - and the day after is also my son’s birthday so we celebrate for two days. Your decorations are wonderful. Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteJust lovely! I purchased a King Of Christmas tree last year and absolutely LOVE it. It is one of the best trees I have ever seen.
ReplyDeleteLOVE your patriotic take on the 4th of July- xo Diana
Linda, you did an amazing job! Love how you used the pair of trees on the table, the flags flying in the breeze. Beautiful patriotic setting under your palapa. I have a table rod outdoors which I've tried to train with ivy, so I can add seasonal touches as I wish. Not having good luck with my ivy. I need to rethink the containers. Another project.
ReplyDeleteI hope you and Paul have a festive 4th. Looks like you are ready!
This is awesome. I love your beautiful table for the 4th. Gorgeous as always. Happy 4th. Kris
ReplyDeleteThose little trees are just wonderful. (Like I need one more Christmas tree -- but somehow I can't resist!). And you're so right -- very pretty at night! The table is so festive -- you are definitely ready to celebrate!
ReplyDeleteLinda, this is an amazing display for the 4th of July under your palapa! I love the use of the red, white, and blue🇺🇸 Happy Independence Day ❤️🤍💙
