I love to decorate with Red, White and Blue to celebrate this time of year! This is a new addition to my collection. Love to use items I already have around the house. Just had to buy the pack of 3 flags at Target for $1! Hope you enjoy!
Just a little patriotic lantern to add to the Red, White and Blue!
Just knot rope/twine around the lip of the jar, tight!
Then cut a piece of rope/twine in the length you want to hang the lantern, weave through the rope you have just tied, making sure to get it through 2 or 3 pieces of it, tie it tight! Repeat on the opposite side making sure you are even so it will hang correctly!
Use some smaller twine to wrap a flag, I got mine and the Target dollar spot 3 for $1! Wrap around as much as you want. Then tie off in the back.
Add some sand and a votive and you are set!
Then hang and enjoy! I used a chandelier left over from a humming bird feeder to hang mine on. But anything will work!
Enjoyed the project?
