Patriotic Party Medallions

Easy
Still need some easy July 4th decorating ideas? I have you covered! These patriotic paper medallions are easy to make using cardstock, patterned paper and the printable party circles. They look festive as table decoration or hung as a garland.
Start by making the medallions from solid-color cardstock and or patterned paper in red, white, and blue. Cut paper into 3x12" strips and accordian-fold each strip. If it reminds you of making paper fans in elementary school, you're doing it right!
Glue 2 strips together, overlapping folds on each end to make a circle. Don't worry if it seems to pop up in the middle, adding the printable circle will fix it. Tip: I also add a spare circle of cardstock (or an extra printed patriotic circle if i'm hanging them) for extra stability.
Print the patriotic party circles, and cut them out. Add liquid glue to the reverse side of the printed circle and add to center of your folded medallion. Add a bamboo skewer to the back of the completed medallion, or punch a hole in the top to hang.
