The Fourth of July is one my favorite holidays! Ironic, considering as a young child I use to be terrified of fireworks. To this day, sparklers will be the closest things to a firecracker that you will ever see me light. I blame my lack of desire to play with pyrotechnics on the post-traumatic stress I endured as the only girl smack dab in the middle of 2 brothers who use to taunt me with those paper poppers {they had me convinced as they chased me around that they may have accidentally mixed them up with a box of the big boom-pow firecrackers!} Go ahead feel sorry for me. Fortunately, I grew up into an adult who LOVES a great, festive firework display and I can’t wait to “ooh” and “awe” next Monday at our town’s holiday festival! In honor of 4th of July I thought it would be cute to put together some sparkler favors and I’m sharing the printable with you. After all, fun is always in style!
You’ll want to print on heavy cardstock so that once you add the sparklers the favor isn’t flimsy. There are 5 cards on a page and each card measures approximately 2 inches wide & 8.25 inches long.
Take your scissors and cut out each card. Cut a small horizontal slit with an x-acto or craft knife above and below the solid blue border. Weave your sparklers through the slits.
You can place the favors in a bucket or basket and add it to your cookout décor. Once the sun starts to set the kiddies will know exactly where to run to for some good ‘ol traditional holiday fun!
See aren't those fun? What are some of your favorite 4th of July childhood memories?
