Taking pride in being American is totally cool these days. Tomorrow is our first 4th of July with this new history-making president and I think we should all be proud and eager to celebrate. Reusing magazine or junk mail paper can yield this fun star necklace for your weekend celebrations.


How to make a star necklace from magazine or junk mail paper:


1. Choose your magazines. You'll want to find some red, white, and blue paper. Cut one star out of each piece of paper. Make one the biggest, one mid-sized, and one small.

2. Cut a hole through all three stars and string a loop of thread through them.

3. Attach the stars to a necklace and enjoy!

This project is an easy way to reuse and show some 4th of July spirit at the same time.
