Independence Day

You might want to take your loved ones and friends to watch the fireworks at some public place where the show will start as soon as it’s dark. Picnics are traditional 4th of July happenings. If you’re thinking about giving a gift, you can sneak it in the food basket (just remember where you put it!)

The 4th of July—and the old Red, White, and Blue give us plenty to consider when it comes to jewelry gifts. Sapphires, diamonds or other colorless stones, and rubies and garnets deliver all the bling we could dream of in the red white and blue category. You’ll be right in the spirit with these colors on our nation’s birthday.

While there’s no hard and fast rule mandating gift giving on America’s birthday celebrations, it’s often a welcome memento of our special day. Sparkling jewels that mimic the fireworks and sparklers will make your recipient recall when they received your thoughtful gift.
