I find myself coming back to my ribbon stash more and more when making 4th of July crafts and decorations. For some reason, it just feels so…Americana. They are the perfect craft supplies for making DIY decor and projects! Check out the Dollar Store—they always have lots to choose from, or go scrap-busting in your own craft room!

This Independence Day, grab a spool of ribbon and start crafting! These patriotic crafts are perfect for parades, picnic centerpieces, 4th of July party decorations, fireworks celebrations and more. A lot of them also work for Memorial Day.

Use ribbon and other scraps to make this patriotic windsock! It's the perfect outdoor decor for the 4th of July and Memorial Day. A great scrapbusting project!

Patriotic Windsock

My favorite project with ribbon is my patriotic scrapbusting windsock. I love how it blows in the summer breezes and is fun and patriotic without being too ‘MERICA! And you can probably make one with things you have in your craft room already, including an embroidery hoop, ribbon, and hot glue gun.

Your blog really liked it. We can make a lot from the ribbon but I did not know what to make and how ribbons can be used. But your blog gave a great idea, which I liked very much. Thanks for sharing this so interesting post! I really want to be thankful for the way you have put it here.
