Stars for the 4th of July

 

 This year we plan to

deck out the front yard for the 4th of July with  Sifted Flour Stars!
  

1) Cut out a couple of templates. This is when an x-acto knife comes in very handy.

Scrap pieces of cardboard
from a recycling bin work just fine as templates. 

2) Give your kiddos a spray bottle of water. 
Spray the grass with water inside the star shape
(so the flour will stick).

3) White Flour sifted through a flour sifter is the next step. Sift flour on the stencils to sprinkle the front yard with a smattering of festive stars!
