Fourth of July DIY Burlap & Star Wreath

The summer months always give me an itch to add some patriotic elements to my home decor, and one of my favorite ways to do so is by crafting a fun wreath in red, white and blue. Today, I’m sharing a fourth of July DIY star wreath that is fun and easy to make and will add tons of personality to your front door, or anywhere else needing a touch of patriotic personality.

fourth-of-july-diy-star-wreath-DariceFourth of July DIY Star Wreath Supplies:

  • Darice 4-inch 3D Wood Stars (3).
  • Darice 12-inch Grapevine Wreath.
  • Darice Rustic Tin Stars (package of 14).
  • Darice 2.5-inch Red Burlap Ribbon.
  • Darice 2.5-inch Ivory Burlap Ribbon.
  • Blue Craft Paint.
  • Foam Brush.
  • Hot Glue.

Patriotic Star WreathTo begin your fourth of July DIY wreath, use the foam brush to apply 2-3 coats of craft paint to the 3D wood stars, or until the desired coverage is achieved. Allow the paint to dry completely.

Patriotic Star WreathWrap the ivory burlap ribbon around the left-hand side of the wreath, until about 1/3 of the wreath is covered, as shown. Secure the ribbon with dabs of hot glue as you go.

Arrange the stars on the surface of the burlap-wrapped portion of the wreath until you are satisfied with the overall design. Secure each star to the wreath with hot glue, overlapping the edges of the stars for added dimension. I opted to layer some of the smallest tin stars on top of the wooden stars to create a center on each one. Note: As you adhere the stars, leave a 2-inch gap for the bow (not pictured), which will be added in the next step.

Patriotic Star WreathCreate a bow with the red ribbon burlap. Secure to the wreath with hot glue in the open space you left between the stars in the previous step.

I love to create wreaths like this one to tuck into bookshelves or display on my mantel throughout the year. Wreaths truly are one of my favorite creative projects!

I hope you’re inspired to try your hand at making a pretty Fourth of July DIY wreath for your own home. It really only takes a very small investment of time and materials to create something special to enjoy throughout the summer season!
