4th of July Crafts 3: Craft Stick Flags:
Instructions:
Start by painting 5 craft sticks with red paint. Let the paint dry, and then paint the other side. Paint 4 sticks with white paint the same way. Line them up, red then white and so on.
Then take 3 craft sticks and glue them vertically onto the red and white sticks. Cut the two craft sticks so that they are the same height as the red and white sticks. Glue to the flag's left edge. Do the same in the middle.
Then glue a craft stick (full length) to the flag's right edge. This will make the handle.
Then take blue cornstarch paper and cut it into a very small square. You can either draw white stars, or use white star stickers. Use either one to glue to the blue square. Let the glue dry. Then turn the flag over and glue the blue square with the white stars to it.
Now glue a craft stick to the long craft stick. Adding length to the handle. To top off your flag wrap the handle with blue painter's tape.
