4th of July DIY

American flag mason jars-

What you will need:

- two mason jars ($1-3 each)

- two mini American flag ($1 each) 

- twine ($3) 

- glue ($3-5)

Directions:

Simply pull the flag off of the stick. (Keep the stick for another craft!) take the flag and dap two dots of super glue or hot glue on each end and press onto mason jar. You don't have to but I did so it wouldn't wiggle! Take your twine and tie it around the bottom and into a knot and wrap around mason jar. Tie a knot at the top and wala! I bought a little premade Fourth of July boquet but you can put fresh flowers, candles, candies or whatever you want in it! Perfect for a centerpiece or just to add some fun into the home! You can reuse the mason jars, sticks, glue and twine! No money is being wasted here!
