DIY 4th of July windsock

This afternoon Evan and I worked together on a fun little 4th of July project. We headed to the craft store and bought some construction paper and a star hole punch. Once we got home, we got to crafting!


All you need for this fun project is:

Large cut blue construction paper
Large cute white construction paper
Star hole punch
Red and white party streamers or ribbon - I used a combination
Clear tape
Glue

With white construction paper, take the star hole punch and punch the heck out of it.


I really like this Martha Stewart punch. They are a tad on the pricey side, so be sure to bring your coupons!

Next glue all your stars to the blue construction paper keeping about a one inch border on the short sides.




Then take your newly starred paper and pull short sides together to form a cylinder. Tape closed. Finally cut the party streamers and/or ribbons and tape to one end of the cylinder. Then take a small piece of the streamer and form it to make a handle at the other end. You're done!




I hope you try it out! Lots of fun for the kids!

Happy 4th of July everyone!
