Since the middle of the summer, I have been busy making wreaths for my home and to donate to the annual wreath sale at my local library. For the summer months, I decorate my home in red, white, and blue décor. I have thus made a couple of patriotic wreaths that work from Memorial Day through Labor Day. I recently make a fun patriotic wreath using printed duct tape and tablecloths. I found all my supplies at the Dollar Tree.
Materials
- Foam wreath
- Red, white, and blue plaid duct tape
- Red, white, and blue plastic tablecloths
- Glitter red, white, and blue table scatter
- Red ribbon
- Hot glue
Instructions
- Wrap the red, white, and blue plaid duct tape around the foam wreath.
- Cut the tablecloths into 8 inch by 1 inch strips, three strips of each color.
- Tie the red tablecloth strips around the foam wreath.
- Knot the three strips together in a single knot.
- Tie the white tablecloth strips around the foam wreath next to the red.
- Knot the three strips together in a single knot.
- Tie the blue tablecloth strips around the foam wreath next to the white.
- Knot the three strips together in a single knot.
- Tie and glue a piece of red ribbon around the foam circle from which to hang the wreath.
- Glue the table scatter around the front of the wreath.
- Display the patriotic wreath.
