Red, white, blue just screams summer to me. And since I decided that I am going to make a few decorations for the fourth this year, I decided to come up with a fun craft that Noah could help with and will love seeing.
Plus this craft was made made from items from the Dollar Tree (other than the paint). I told you it was my favorite. So the project only costs about $5.
Supplies:
- flower pots
- styrofoam block
- glue
- paint
- paintbrush
- pinwheels
- packing paper
- pencil
First I painted the two flower pots white. It took two coats. Once that dried, using the eraser on my pencil, I dotted one pot with red dots and one with blue. Then I let them dry.
Next I glued an inch and a half square piece of styrofoam in the bottom of the pots. Noah helped me place in red and blue paper in the matching pots. After I cut some excess length form the pinwheels, Noah placed one in each pot.
I love how simple, but fun they are. They are perfect for decorating for your Fourth of July party or just having out for the summer. xo Britt
