Red, white, and Blue-4th of July decorations.

We love craft time in our home. Today we made some 4th of July decorations, using just a few materials. 


Materials needed:

-Toilet paper roll/ paper towel roll
-Glue
-Glitter
-Star stencil *optional
-String
-Craft paper
-paint
-crayons/markers







I started off with tracing and cutting out a few stars, and then my daughter painted each star.
 We used some crayons to color on some craft paper. After we applied some glue to the back side of the construction paper and covered the toilet paper rolls. We also added some glitter to each decoration. Then we glued on the stars. Simple, and very easy!
Last just add some string. All done! :)
We will probably hang these out in the back porch.
Enjoy~
