noodle dance

The Fourth is my FAVORITE holiday.  This year, unfortunately, I won't be in my hometown to enjoy the festivities.  I decided to add a little American flair to my back porch so that I can celebrate the colors all month long!  This project cost me a total of $2 and took me 30 minutes total to make!  

Funny story, I was picking up the noodles from our local dollar store and this sweet lady asked me what I was doing with them.  I explained this project to her- three minutes later, I was sitting on the floor of the store with seven or eight women around me as I showed them how to do it!  Funny things happen when you're crafting!

This one is for all my new dollar store friends!  Three easy-peasy steps to make the Patriotic Summer Garland:

cut your noodles into 1-inch sections.  a kitchen knife will do great!

string all your pieces together with a needle and some fishing line

hang it up! 

The best part about this?  WEATHER.  PROOF.  I hung this up and we had a gigantic storm blow through that night and those suckers stayed in place!  Neither wind nor, rain....

Happy Fourth!
