Give your weekly dose of family crafting a patriotic DIY spin - just in time for Independence Day - with this batch of cool projects for kids and parents to make.

Tomorrow is the big day – it’s almost the Fourth of July!

You’ve still got time to whip up a few projects and decorations for your house to get your army of young crafters in the spirit.

Star Garland

It’s only fitting that a craft project from Epicurious involves Popsicle sticks. Gather leftover sticks or pick up a craft pack from your local craft supply store to create this patriotic garland that the whole family can help out with.
