Create A 4th Of July Hanging Decoration

  I decided to create my first 4th of July craft for this year, and I am super excited to share it with you all. This craft is pretty simple, and my main items are from Dollar Tree. We're using a canvas frame for this craft, and a metal star. These two items can be purchased at Dollar Tree.  Video tutorial Materials One small canvas (We are only using the frame) One metal star Wooden letters Decorative napkin Red, white, and blue gems floral Hot glue floral snips Scissors Start by taking your metal star, and tracing it out onto your napkin. Be sure to remove the second layer of your napkin if your napkin is 2-ply. Once you have traced out the star shape onto your napkin, take your scissors, and cut out your shape. Set your traced shape aside. Next, take some paint, and apply it to the inner section of your metal star. Allow the paint to dry between each coat. I applied around three coats of paint.  Next, using your paintbrush, apply a thin layer of mod podge onto the inner section

Simple DIY Glass Candle Holder Design

 Hi everyone!  Today we will create a simple do-it-yourself craft. This craft was under five dollars and takes very few materials. I only had to pick up two of the main materials, the glass jar, and the wall creation leaf design.
