Patriotic Fourth of July Flag Wreath Tutorial

Patriotic Fourth of July Flag Wreath Tutorial 

One of my favorite holidays to decorate for is the Fourth of July. Red White and Blue is such a beautiful color combination. Last year we were just moving into our new home so we weren’t able to decorate much for The Fourth, so this year I was excited to start decorating. Our home is white and very traditional on the outside, I think it will look so pretty all decorated for The Fourth! Of course the first thing I think of making when decorating is a wreath – I love making them. So while I have been out and about I have had my eye out for fun ideas to materials to make a patriotic wreath. I spotted some really inexpensive plastic flag garlands at Hobby Lobby the other day and I thought they would be perfect to wrap around a wreath to create a Fourth of July Flag Wreath!

I also wanted to make a statement with my wreath so I chose a huge wreath form. I think it is over 20 inches wide. And I also wanted to incorporate a wooden USA cut out that I found in the dollar spot at Target.

Here’s how I created this Fourth of July Flag Wreath!

Supplies:

Wreath form

fabric or ribbon to wrap around the wreath form

4 packages of flag garland (I found mine at Hobby Lobby)

USA cutout (optional)

Ribbon to hang the wreath

Vinyl word to put on USA cutout (optional)

Directions:

1. Wrap the wreath form with ribbon or ribbon strips cut 4 inches wide.
2. Wrap the wreath form with the flag garlands. Wrap one garland at a time, all the way around until the flags are dense and evenly distributed.
3. Use your craft cutting machine to cut out a word for the middle of your USA cutout. I cut out the word WELCOME.
4. Hang the USA cutout from the top of the wreath with ribbon.
5. Loop ribbon at the top to hang the wreath.
6. Hang up your wreath and enjoy it!

I think it’s a pretty contrast with our light blue door! I am excited to show you the rest of the front porch this week!!
