You might need to use tools that require adult supervision, such as glue gun and scissors. If so, these can be replaced by textile glue and safety scissors. Make sure you ask your parents some help.

You will love making this fun and patriotic wreath so you can proudly display it on your door!

What you’ll need:

  • Foam wreath
  • Wood letters (USA)
  • White craft paint
  • Paintbrush
  • 3 sheets white felt
  • 2 sheets red felt
  • 1 sheet blue felt
  • Scissors
  • Red, white, and blue glitter glue
  • White craft glue
  • Patriotic star garland

How to make it:

  1. Paint the letters white and set aside to dry. (Picture #1)
  2. Cut white and red felt into strips approximately 2″ wide.
  3. Cover a 3″ section of the wreath with white glue. Begin wrapping the white felt around the wreath, overlapping as you go. You can secure the beginning of your felt with a thumbtack if you like. Continue wrapping and glue until you run out of white felt. Finish wrapping with the red felt. (Picture #2)
  4. Now that the letters are dry, paint each one with glitter glue, using a different color for each letter. Set aside to dry. (Picture #3)
  5. Insert the beginning of the star garland under a piece of the wrapped felt. Wrap the garland around the wreath, inserting the end of the garland into the felt. Secure both ends with some white glue. (Picture #4)
  6. When the letters are dry, glue them to the top of the wreath.
  7. Cut the blue felt into 1″ wide strips and glue them together end to end to create a ribbon. When dry, tie it into a bow then glue to the bottom of the wreath and trim the ends.
  8. Cut some more of the patriotic star garland into 6″ long pieces and glue them under the blue bow. Let everything dry.

Tips:

  1. Glitter glue is available from discount department stores and craft supply stores.
  2. Foam wreaths are available at craft supply stores.
  3. Instead of blue felt, simple use some wide blue ribbon or even a long strip of fabric for the bow.

•No touching knives or the stove
•Do not touch any appliances without adult supervision.
•Always wash your hands before handling food.

Trifles are great desserts for summer because they don’t require any baking and almost zero sweat equity. Pick your favorite fruits and cookies or cake and layer away.

Ingredients

  • 12 large strawberries, hulled and quartered
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 4 cups store bought angel food cake, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/2 cup blueberries

Cooking Instructions

  1. Place half of the strawberries, water and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Mash mixture using a potato masher or fork and cook for about 5 minutes until mixture becomes syrup-like. Cool for 5 minutes.
  2. In a bowl of an electric mixer, beat cream until soft peaks form. Layer cake, cream, strawberries and blueberries in clear cocktail glasses. Drizzle cooled strawberry syrup over top of each trifle. Can be served immediately or covered and refrigerated overnight.

Substitution(s)

Can’t find Angel food cake? Use pound cake or vanilla wafers.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes

Ready In: 10 minutes

Servings: 6
