Slat Flag Red White and Blue


Want something creative, patriotic, and simple to do with the kids? Why not create your own red, white, and blue flag using a wood slat board, paper, and glue. Cut your paper slightly smaller than the slat size, cut a square a little less that 1/4 the entire size and glue all of them to the boards. Paint a wooden star or you could also cover it with paper. Embellish with whatever you would like from ribbons and glitter, to buttons and vinyl. As long as you stick with the red, white, and blue theme you could leave it up as long as you want to and be patriotic year round. Enjoy crafting.
