Can’t make much with the girls without adding some glitter, this time on the stars!

We were in the mood to make something patriotic and since we had some pallets laying around, decided to make them into a decorative flag. It was a pretty quick and simple craft and the nice thing about working with pallet wood is the imperfections give it character and charm and they don’t have to be flawless for them to look good. The girls enjoyed helping and now we’ve got a little Americana to display for Independence Day! Want to make your own? Here’s how:
