Hi friends! Continuing on with the patriotic theme around here – I have yet ANOTHER kid friendly craft that is absolutely perfect to keep the kids busy while you celebrate the upcoming Memorial Day weekend.

And like always – this kid craft is super easy, inexpensive and fun for children of ALL ages! Plus it makes for great decorations too!

Just follow the simple step-by-step tutorial below, to create your one-of-a-kind Paper Plate Flag piece with your child today.

Then display proudly as you give thanks this weekend. Happy crafting {and celebrating} my friends! #gluedtomycrafts

Paper Plate Painted Flag Supplies:

* Large Paper Plate
* Red/White Craft Paint
* Washi Tape or Painter’s Tape
* Dark Blue Colored Cardstock
* Paint Brush
* Hand Held Stapler
* Kid Friendly Craft Scissors

Directions:

* First tape off your paper plate with the washi tape. Your lines don’t have to be perfect but you will want each section to be about the same thickness.
* Now squirt some paint in the center of the paper plate. Have children move the paint around and completely cover the plate.
* Once done, quickly remove the washi tape stripes {some paper plate might come up with it but that’s alright}
* To finish off the Paper Plate Flag, cut out a small rectangle from the blue cardstock, add some “stars” and staple it onto the paper plate. Then display proudly!
