Red and Blue American Bandana Wreath

Red and Blue American Bandana Wreath

Supply List
    10 Bandanas
    Foam Wreath Form
    Embellishments (star stickers)

Step 1:  Cut your bandanas along the crease where they are folded in half.
Step 2:  Cut your bandana halves into halves again where they are creased from folding.  You should now have 40 strips of bandana fabric.
Step 3:  Cut the tags off of the bandanas.
Step 4:  Tie the bandana strips to the wreath form alternating red and blue using a double square knot.
Step 5:  Attach embellishments.  I used star stickers in a circle pattern for this project.
Step 6:  Attach a red or blue pipe cleaner astound the wreath form for hanging.
Step 7:  Hang, enjoy, and thank an active duty or veteran!

Tractor Seat Swings

Tractor Seat Swings

I found four used tractor seats on the curb.
I made these simple swings in just a few easy steps.

First I cleaned them, and then I used a drill with a 3/8" bit to drill two holes on each side of the seats.  I drilled the holes about seven inches apart. 

All finished drilling!


I purchased 1/4" x 100' of braided poly rope.

I fed the rope down from the top, under the seat, and back through the seat from the bottom.  At this time, adjust the rope to the desired seat length, and cut.  You will also need to burn the ends if you do not have a hot knife to cut with.  Finally I tied knots in the rope ends and hung them up.
