Land that I Love...

The other day while I was at the Dollar Tree I found these great tinsel covered stars...I scooped up three thinking I could do something with them for my front door for the Fourth.  Then while I was at Hobby Lobby I grabbed wooden letters {USA}. I shared my inspiration with a few friends... So today a few of us  got together to make this quick patriotic craft to display on our doors....  They were really easy and cheap!!! And I love how it turned out!!!!



Here is what you'll need if you want to make your own:
3 stars from the dollar tree {although my friends found hearts instead of stars and those were cute 2}
Wooden letters U S A from Hobby Lobby
Ribbon
Hot Glue
Paint to paint your wooden letters...I spray painted mine white and then used the end of a pencil eraser to polka dot mine and a paint pen to stripe my "S"

Leave the tag hanger on your top star so that you can hang it from your door...it is silver so it looks festive still!

Happy Fourth!!!

Firecrackers in the U.S.A

I love the 4th of July...I love fireworks...I love decorating with simple things turned into more...and I love using my scrapping stash.

I used packages of lifesavers, scrapbook paper, scraps of ribbons, some O-L-D scrapping embellishments and thick white acrylic paint on a chipboard star, and the end of the lifesavers box ( I bought the jumbo box of them at Sam's) and created a cute lil box of lifesavers to set on my entryway buffet...
