On to the Fourth of July goodies!!!
Isn't this just the best { and simplest and prettiest } ideas ever?!?! It's rice died in red white and blue! {DUH!} Love how easy it is yet still oh so festive!
These tin cans are to die for! It takes a little bit more time then the above craft, but it's worth it. You take tins cans { from canned veggies or what have you} and fill it with water. Freeze until frozen. Meanwhile, trace out a pattern on tracing paper. Stars. Fireworks...whatever you what. Once frozen and your pattern is made, all you do is place the pattern on the can and tap a nail through the can with a hammer. The nail lodges into the ice so the can won't dent! Genius, right??? Then you MUST let the ice melt and the can dry. The you can use a piece of heavy card stock or cut up a manila folder in order to seperate the different colors. Then spray paint in red white and blue! Lite up with a candle at night.....sighhhhhh :)
Last but NEVER least.... I know I will be having a cookout. as will so so many other folks everywhere. This is the cutest way to dress up your plastic cutlery! Just glue on some scrapbook paper on your good ol' canned veggie can { empty of course, LOL} and Volia! I think you could spray it with a clear spray paint or some Modge Podge to protect it so you can reuse it, but don't quote me on it!
Ok y'all. I hope you all have a WONDERFUL rest of your week and in the words of Arnold......."I'll be back!" ;) Till next time!
