Crafting with Kara-Quick Patriotic Wreath


We were at the Dollar Tree recently when Kara saw some red, white and blue items.  She said she had an idea and asked if she could buy a few to make a craft.    She picked up a wreath, two blue garlands with stars, and some bows.  She couldn't decide if she wanted large or small, so she bought both.

She started wrapping the garland around the wreath.  The two garlands were the perfect to size to wrap the wreath entirely.



It looks pretty with just the garland, but it is not quite finished.




She decided on the big bow. It gave it more of a wow factor.



We found the perfect place to hang it.







It is perfect for Memorial Day and the 4th of July.  The best thing is that with all the supplies at the dollar store, it also only costs a couple of dollars to make.
