Fun, Easy, And Patriotic: What’s Not To Love About This DIY Decor?

These super simple windsocks are the perfect finishing touch for the front porch, or a back yard grill out! What’s even better, is that you probably have most of the supplies on hand – tin cans, spray paint, contact paper, and ribbon. Get the kiddos involved with decorating the cans, and make it an afternoon full of patriotic crafts.
