If you are looking for a tasty treat everyone can enjoy at your Cinco de Mayo party, these sombrero cookies are an excellent option. These are extremely quick to make and the sombrero shape with sprinkles will top off their festive appearance.
Star-Spangled Wavers
Nothing is more breathtaking than seeing the colors of the American flag whipping in the wind and these star-spangled wavers will do just that. These were made by using a 3/8-inch dowel, red, white and blue felt, red, white and blue ribbons, tacky glue and scissors.
Liberty Crown
Show your guests just how much you appreciate your freedom as an American citizen by adding this Liberty crown to your Independence Day décor. All you need is green craft foam, scissors, a stapler, cloth tape and one paper clip. You won’t find anything as unique as this at a big-box store.
Doily Fireworks
Brighten up the appearance of your home for this year’s Independence Day by using these doily fireworks. These were made from three doilies, tempera paint, a sheet of 12 x 18-inch construction paper (preferably dark blue in color) and sponges to apply the paint to the doilies.
Independence Day Tissue Paper Stars
Dress up the windows in your home with these Independence Day paper stars. This is a craft that will fit within any budget with ease as you only need tissue paper and a little bit of creativity. Don’t forget to let the kids help out!
Patriotic Cookie Cutter Stars
If you have star-shaped cookie cutters lying around your home, these patriotic cookie cutter stars are another fantastic way to introduce your little ones to the American culture. Dip the cookie cutters in paint and let the kiddos “stamp” the cookie cutter on a piece of paper.
Fireworks in a Bottle
Whiles these “fireworks” won’t actually explode, they will still provide plenty of entertainment for people of all ages. All you need is an empty water bottle, pipe cleaners and star confetti. We recommend filling the bottle with water and super gluing the lid on the bottle.
