Pottery Barn Kids 4th of July Collection. I don’t know about you, but I just love this BBQ stuff and cannot wait to eat the amazing American cuisine in honor of the 4th. And what better way to serve up the food than on the personalized flag and star plates Mommy ordered from Pottery Barn Kids? I even have a matching place mat to help contain the mess I am sure to make digging into my magnificent holiday meal. Does Mommy think I am a messy eater? Well, if so, I forgive her since we also purchased pin wheels (pictured), picnic totes, and various American flags from Pottery Barn Kids for my American adventure. Prices vary; potterybarnkids.com.
