Party decoration set
Get maximum use out of your decorations for even non-patriotic holidays. This set of pom poms and paper lanterns is easy to assemble, and its colors can be mixed and matched for any future party regardless of whether the theme is red, white, and blue. In case you don’t know, this is why we celebrate Labor Day.
Melamine dinnerware set
Just because summer’s almost done doesn’t mean you can’t still break out fun colors and patterns for your party. This 16-piece melamine set is perfect for outdoor use thanks to its durability and light weight.
Red pennant banner
For a more subtle way to decorate for Labor Day, this pennant banner is the perfect touch. It features the official print of summer (gingham, like a picnic tablecloth) plus a handful of other patterns to close out the season in style. Then, store it for the winter and break it out again for all of next summer’s parties, too.
Confetti-filled balloons
Whoever thought of filling balloons with glitter and confetti should win some sort of party-hosting award, in our opinion. These super-cute transparent white balloons are filled with little red, white, and blue stars, perfect if you’re into more subtle decorations.
Star streamers garland
Create the perfect Instagram backdrop so all your guests have a spot to pose and post. This star-spangled banner (see what we did there?) can be repurposed for other patriotic holidays and even hung up in your trees like string lights, without the major electricity bill.
Picnic check blue tablecloth
For a twist on the traditional gingham tablecloth, try this blue floral-patterned one. It has the easy-cleaning, durable vinyl surface you love in a tablecloth, so it’s perfect for parties. Just wipe up any messes and get on with the lawn games!
Waterproof string lights
The party will last long into the night with the help of these outdoor string lights. They add soft illumination whether you string them from trees in the backyard or fasten them around the perimeter of your porch.
Outdoor throw pillows
Make your guests feel comfortable with these outdoor throw pillows. Their simple stripes could be subtly patriotic, or could just be a fun way to celebrate summertime.
Patriotic banner
If you’re not so crafty yourself, check out this fun cardstock banner pre-made on Etsy. You’ll want to break it out again for Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, and every other holiday in between.
Galvanized metal serving tray
