I’ve been looking for something festive to make for Independence Day and I compiled this list of the 5 best Fourth of July crafts I found.  Now, by “best” I don’t mean most-amazing-ever, I just mean simple, cheap, and fun.

Let’s start with simple.  Super simple.  Amanda’s Parties To Go created these fun, free printable stickers that you attach to Hershey’s kisses for a patriotic flair:

A more traditional craft would be these Fourth of July popsicle stick flags, which can be strung together to decorate a mantle.  Ginger at GingerSnapCrafts gives a step-by-step tutorial on how to make them:

In the categories of cheap and fun (but not quite as simple), check out this wreath by VanillaBeanGirls.  They created a step-by-step tutorial on how to make this festive Fourth of July wreath out of tissue paper:

If you’d like to eat your craft instead of just look at it, then make this festive Fourth of July fruit salad, by Rachel at FamilyEverAfter:

If you’re in the partying mood and looking for Fourth of July printable party favor labels, cupcake wrappers, cupcake toppers, etc, then Amanda’s Parties To Go created a free printable pack that’s got you covered:

Crafty Thursdays are an ongoing feature of The Daily Citron.  I picked Thursday because it leaves just enough time for busy people to collect their supplies for doing the craft over the weekend.
