Its crafty Thursday and I thought I would show you my flag wreath I made. Now I didn't take pictures while I was making it. I totally couldn't hold the yarn tight and still snap a picture so I am sorry about that but it is super easy to figure out. I found the idea on this site. The cellar door stories
Here is my finished product.
So first I went to the dollar store and bought a foam pool noodle then I went to the craft store and bought 3 skeins of yarn and some pre cut felt stars.
I just duct taped the noodle ends to create a circle. Then I wrapped the yarn around and around. I started with the red and white then finished with the blue. It took about 2 hours but I was able to watch tv while doing it. I just knotted the ends of the yarn and your done.
I stuck on the stars in random places and then tied up a bow made out of ribbon and thats it.
It really was that easy and its very festive and cute on my front door.
The total cost was about $13 because I bought everything. Still $13 is very cheap for a wreath.
Happy Thursday!

I love this wreath. I've been looking for some inexpensive 4th of July decorations. What a great idea. I love the fact you used the pool noodle. I love doing projects using dollar store finds. Thank you ladies.
