Patriotic Garland
here are all the supplies you will need.
Red mesh, burlap, coffee filters, buttons, 4th of July scrap paper, paper dollies, hot glue gun, navy blue acrylic paint, round small sponge brush, and grow grain ribbon.
On some of the paper dollies I used red acrylic paint to paint the outer edges for more color.
Here is the ribbon that was glued to the back of the coffee filter flowers. I tied knots in between each flower.
then I used hot glue and glued the grow grain ribbon to the back of the filter flowers.
here are the coffee filters all tipped in acrylic paint. They needed more color and it added more dimension and texture to the look.
and HERE it is all glued and layered. The 4th Scrappaper was covered in fireworks, so I cut them all out and used them too.
and I draped it around my red hutch.
i love everything paper–so i love this!! so cute:)
Cute idea! I love the red, white, and blue of Americana. Your banner is perfect for your red hutch.
Those are adorable. I love anything paper and easy to store! xoxo Nancy

Cute and budget friendly idea…I will have to get my kiddos in on this one. I found your link at the stars and stripes party after linking up. Happy Fourth!

This is very cute! I may just have to make more coffee filter banners for every season 🙂 hehe. Thanks for the comment on my blog!
At first I looked at this and thought….Did she paint her hutch again? And then I realized that it was an older post! 🙂 Love the garland!
