We can't believe the 4th of July is right around the corner! We have seen some amazing and creative projects and activities to celebrate and we are so excited to share some of our favorites with you! 

Create your own homemade décor! Deck the halls with Red, White, and Blue!

We love these heart shaped American Flags made by @2art.chambers on Instagram, a fun and easy project everyone can participate in!

Materials needed:

A canvas: any paper works great! You can use construction, sketch pad, even computer paper, it won’t bleed through! Or, try Cardboard - recycle a cereal box or boxes from deliveries, and cut them into any shape you want.

Kwik Stix/Thin Stix: grab your Red, White, and Blue Kwik or Thin Stix. It’s that easy!
