Patriotic Pin

This cute little pin is easy to make and fun to wear in celebration of the holiday. Crafting Time: 30 to 45 minutes, plus drying time for glue

Materials

  • Craft foam scraps in blue and white
  • Pencil
  • Scissors
  • Glitter, both red and blue
  • Glue
  • 1/4 inch ribbon scraps in red, white, and blue
  • Blue felt scrap
  • Pin back

Instructions

  1. Trace the heart pattern on both the blue craft foam and blue felt. Trace the star pattern on the white craft foam. Cut these three shapes out.
  2. Line the edges of the foam heart and the foam star with glue. Sprinkle blue glitter on the glue around the heart, and red glitter on the glue around the star. Allow the glue to dry.
  3. Cut a 3 and 1/2 inch length from each of your red, white, and blue quarter inch ribbon scraps. Glue one end of each piece to the back of the foam heart, at the bottom. Glue the blue felt heart to the back of the foam heart, covering the ribbon ends.
  4. Glue the pin back to the felt to complete your pin. Allow the glue to dry.
