These batons promise to be the stars of any Independence Day celebration.
Materials
- Scissors
- Pieces of red, white, and blue felt
- Red, white, and blue ribbons (available at local craft stores)
- Tacky glue
- 3/8-inch dowel
Instructions
1. Cut a pair of 6-inch stars from red, white, or blue felt.
2. Cut a slightly smaller pair (ours were 4 inches across) from a different color of felt, and an even smaller pair (ours were 3 inches across) from the third color.
3. Use tacky glue to affix the stars to each other. Glue together the 2 sets of stars, sandwiching a 3/8-inch dowel between them.
4. Allow the glue to dry, then finish the baton by tying a length of red, white, and blue ribbon around the dowel.
