What to wear!! {Fourth of July} 15+ Diy Clothing Projects

The 4th of July is one of those holiday I just love dressing up for.  I realize that it is only 1 day, but I grew up being taught that it is important to celebrate our freedoms.  I have heard stories about family members who have fought in past wars.  Hearing there stories reminds me that freedom is not free.  It is earned and should be appreciated. So every year I rack my brain to find something unique to dress my kids in. So this year I made a round up of projects that I love. Some are DIY some are purchase but all are fabulous.   All around dressing You and your kids for the 4th of July!! 

Easy American Flag T- Shirt

I am so excited to be a part of Sugar Bee Crafts Red White and Blue Series.  Today I am sharing my Easy American Flag T-Shirt. No sew, not cutter required!!

I love dressing my kids in Patriotic clothing and outfits for the 4th of July.  I think it is important to instill in our kids how important our freedom is, and to appreciate those how fight for our freedoms. So every year I try to think of something easy and special for each one of them.  This year I went the easy route and made these fun and easy American Flag Tees!!

Cinnamon Waffle Bites

***Warning if you don't like easy things, skip this post.  It can't get any easier than this!***

So the other day I was cleaning out my fridge. Oh I dislike this job.  It reminds me of  the leftovers I forgot about. I really hate wasting food!  I found some packaged cinnamon rolls, tucked way in the bask.  I am not sure how they got in there.  I guess I bought them but I can't remember when or were. They were really close to expiring. I debated on throwing them away. But then I thought, why waste them.  So I did something a little unconventional.  I threw them in the waffle iron!
