DIY 4th of July Decorations


Well June has come and gone and the 4th of July is Friday!! Since, holidays tend to sneak up on us all I've put together an easy DIY decoration for you.

you'll need
  • Red, White and Blue Crepe Paper (available at Dollar Stores)
  • Kitchen twine/jute
  • Clear Tape

how to
Trim multiple 6 inch strips of crepe paper. Leave at least a foot extra on the end of your kitchen twine and then fold one strip down the middle across the twine (hamburger style) and tape down loose end. If you want to tape the crepe paper to the twine to keep it in place feel free. Space out next spot and fold the next strip over. Repeat until you've got a banner long enough for your space!

Also pictured are little crepe paper bows. You cut a 6-8 inch strip and tape it closed in a loop. Trim a 1 inch strip and use it to cinch the center of the bow. Tape the middle cinch strip down. Et Voila.
