With Independence Day just around the corner, maybe you’re putting the final touches on plans for a barbecue, or you just want to add some patriotic touches to your decor. Red, white, and blue accents can quickly make your home fit the spirit of the season. DIY July 4th place settings can add exactly what you’re looking for to make your cookout the event of the season.
How to Make These DIY July 4th Place Settings
This fun DIY project only requires a few simple things that you might already have on hand.
- Small burlap bags or even a couple yards of burlap fabric
- A small paintbrush so you can paint details
- Red, white, and blue acrylic paint
- Cardboard to keep the burlap taut as you paint
The great thing about this project is that you can get creative! Paint a simple flag or use red, white, and blue paint to add a different design that still honors the patriotic theme.
Visit A Night Owl Blog’s page “Painted Burlap Patriotic Place Settings” for full instructions.
And to tie the theme into the rest of your table’s decor, we like this denim and burlap garland from Create Craft Love!
