Making and creating your own decor for 4th of July, Memorial Day or even Labor Day doesn’t have to be hard! I’m excited to have Stephanie share her DIY Patriotic Door Decor tutorial.

Hi everyone, I’m excited to be here again. I’m Stephanie from Crafting in the Rain and I’ve got a star door hanging that’s perfect for the patriotic holidays, and really the whole summer. I’ve had these faux succulents for a couple of months, waiting for the perfect project to use them in, and this was it.

Make your own patriotic door decor for Memorial Day, 4th of July and Labor Day!

Materials

Star Shaped Shadow Box
Moss Sheet
Foam
Gold Spray Paint
Faux Succulents
Burlap Ribbon
Glue

Instructions

Gather your supplies.

Do the painting first so it can dry while you work on other steps. I just chose 3 of the succulents to spray paint and the others I left.

I used a very dry brush to add a bit of blue to the outline of the star to keep it very rustic looking.

Trace out the shape of one star point and cut the foam and moss to fit. Glue the moss to the foam and the foam inside the star.

When the paint is dry, poke the succulents down into the foam. I had to trim the stems with wire cutters.

Mine is hanging on the front door with a Command Strip on the back—but you could use some kind of ribbon, or even leave it as a standing decoration indoors.
