Independence Day

Independence Day in America, what we commonly call the 4th of July, is a time of fireworks, outdoor concerts, and barbecues. It’s the “official” kick-off of summer! And chances are, you and your family have been invited to a barbecue or pool party – and of course, you’d like to gift your host for their graciousness. But what to give them? Are they plant people? Flower lovers? Would they appreciate a themed gift basket, or a gourmet basket?

A gift incorporating two or more of these elements in a red, white, and blue theme is a nice way to “cover the bases”, so to speak! Grilling or cooking implements, festive napkins, and glassware in a white basket combined with a small plant, the whole thing wrapped up with a star-spangled bow and an American flag or two would be a welcome gift for any host. Or a flower arrangement, maybe in a red cube vase with blue delphinium, white roses, and red mini carnations, dotted with candy “rocket pops” in patriotic colors – a beautiful centerpiece for their table, along with treats for the kids (or adults!). Gourmet snacks are always a hit, so a basket of charcuterie delicacies that your host can place on the table for all to enjoy will ensure that your gift is appreciated by everyone!
