Straws, Stars and Stripes... Oh My!!!!

Today it is all about Summer and Celebrating Independence Day! We created this super fun flag using Dollar Store Straws (red and blue) a 5x7 Canvas, Scissors, and the Xyron Creative Station! Yes it is just that easy friends! Check out our video (pre-recorded Live) below and watch how easy it is to make this fun flags. 

What did you guys think? Super fun and easy right?  There are so many different uses for these cute flags.  Name cards at that family BBQ, a fun Kid Craft to do with your kids, grandkids, nieces and nephews! The perfect Home decor piece for your home.  

(Quick instructions on how many straws and what size to cut the straws if you are using a 5x7 flat canvas

* Blue Straws- Qty- 11 cut at 3"
* Red Straws- Qty- 11 cut at 4"
* Red Straws- Qty- 9 cut at 7"

We created the Freedom Cut out on our Cricut using Pic Monkey (font Coffee Break) and uploading our image into design space.  You can get the image here and upload it into design space. We then cut it 4x6 and cut it out of blue cardstock. We then used the Xyron Creative Station to attach the freedom on the front of the flag.
