4th of July Crafts

Posted by Elizabeth Leonidas on

Yes, most if not all fireworks displays are canceled this year. It’s just another reminder that 2020 is just so, well, 2020.  But we've got to do what we’ve got to do to be safe and we can't give up on having fun! Whether you’re celebrating the 4th from home with your fam or headed to a socially distant backyard BBQ, we’ve got something fun and crafty for you and the fam!  

4th of July Flower Pens & Mason Jars 

If you’re looking for a fun craft to do with your kiddos, we’ve put together super cute (and easy) painted mason jars and 4th of July Flower Pens.  Cute. Decorative. Functional. Check check check. 


Mason Jars Supplies

Supply List:

  • Red, White and Fake Flowers (Try Michaels)
  • Pens (Try Michaels or Walgreens)
  • Mason Jar (check your closet or if not, Michaels, Grocery store, etc)
  • Paintbrush or a sponge 
  • Glue of your choice (We used multipurpose spray adhesive and gorilla glue, but a hot glue gun would also be perfect)

Mason Jar

Steps:

  1. Paint your mason jar with any design you want. Stars and stripes, polka dots, sponge blotches, whatever!
  2. Remove the stems and centers from your fake flowers so only the petals are left
  3. Start layering the flower petals by alternating colors, gluing each down on top of the other on the bottom of the pen
  4. If you have a jewel or something jazzy, feel free to glue it to the center of the top for a little sparkle

Throw in some hydrangeas in your mason jars for a cute festive decoration or stuff them with your kiddo's new super cute pens and favorite markers!
