Huzzah! Put on your tri-cornered hats, light your red-white-and-blue fire works, dust off your beloved copy of the Declaration of Independence and unleash your pet eagles, because it's the time of year when we celebrate the USA! In honor of Independence Day, I've compiled the most patriotic items from across the internet, which are perfect for the 4th, Flag Day, Constitution Day, birthdays, Christmas, and really for all 365 days of the year. Because is there ever a bad time to be proud to be an American? Nope.
The Constitution T-shirt
When travelling abroad, proudly represent your country with the immortal words of the constitution emblazoned on your chest, just as they are on your heart. And when you're at home, I promise that one of these bad boys flapping on your clothesline is the next-best thing to having your very own flag pole in your yard.
Signing of the Declaration of Independence throw pillow
It's not called a "throw pillow" for nothing, kids. The power of the Founding Fathers is guaranteed to win you extra points in the pillow fight against oppression. Not to mention, it's essential if "the Jeffersonian aesthetic" is what you have in mind for your dorm room.
Signing of the Declaration Messenger Bag
This stylish messenger bag is perfect for transporting secret intelligence to the patriot lines, or just for carrying around your four hundred page books about Revolutionary War history, landmark SCOTUS cases, or Constitutional interpretation. It probably won't get confused with other bags at the airport, but if it does, then hey, you've found yourself a new friend.
Declaration of Independence Tie
While this strikingly fashionable tie is the perfect tool for cheating on your US History tests, you can also wear it every day so you'll always have something to read when you're bored. For extra patriot points, wear it with the Constitution T-shirt. I also recommend this for the groomsmen at any founding documents-themed wedding.
Also, the Constitution throw pillow
When we were younger, my siblings and I used to play a made-up game called "Freedom Ball." All it was was us fighting over a random object, but I guarantee you we would've taken the game 400% more seriously if we were fighting over a pillow with the Constitution on it.
Thomas Jefferson Quote Bumper Sticker
In versatile sticker form, this timely and thought-provoking quote is perfect for putting on your car, your laptop, your refrigerator, your mailbox, your door, your parents' car, or your body.
