My aunt and my hubby's aunt have a birthday today--Happy Birthday!
I also think of it as the kick off for patriotic decorations.
Do you remember my paper straw wreath from January?
Well I decided to use this for my 4th of July wreath too--with some additions of course.
Presenting my patriotic wreath:
I didn't want the blue stars to be permanent so I made up a way to stick them on. (click to found out how)
I used Microsoft Word to print off a star shape
To make it look more 3D I folded each point straight down to the inverted part.
I hot glued on about a 3-4 inch piece of pipe cleaner.
I wound each star around a straw
Using this method made it easy to adjust the positions of the stars too.
Happy Flag Day!
Wow!!! It looks amazing. The blue stars totally transformed it into the patriotic wreath. Great job :D
