These cute patriotic outdoor decorations ideas will turn your ordinary yard or front porch into the festive place to be! And they’re all so easy to make!

20 Patriotic Outdoor Decorations 

So now that you have decided to decorate your outdoor living space with patriotic decorations, I have a few tips to help out:

  • Hit dollar stores. You will be amazed by how many great things you can pick up at dollar stores nowadays! They typically have all sorts of ribbons, flowers, and crafting materials.
  • Another great place is hardware stores. You could snag a few paint stir sticks or other clearance items. You never know what kind of deals they may have, so don’t be afraid to check them out.
  • Yard sales, consignment shops, and thrifts stores are great places to shop. You can often find old terra cotta planters or scrap items that can be transformed into something new. And the best part is that you can usually get things for next to nothing.
  • Collect items out of season. If you go to your local craft store, you can find all sorts of great deals for out-of-season fabrics and other items. Start to build a collection throughout the year, then you will have things on hand when you want them!
