small box with lid

foam stamps (star, and the letters U, S and A)
large scruffy paint brush
small paintbrush
acrylic sealer spray, matte
This 4th of July patriotic craf project shows you how to make a beautiful box, suitable for gift giving or decorating a table, centrepiece or home for 4th of July celebrations.
Paint entire box and lid with one coat of white paint, let dry completely. using scruffy brush, pick up some red paint and brush off excess onto paper towel. Lightly brush the red paint in long strokes across the outside of the box. Paint will (and should) look streaky. Repat this same process with blue paint on the lid. Some areas will be darker than others, you can rub the edges with the brush a little harder to add definition if you like.
Use the letter stamps and paint them with white paint, then stamp "USA" on the front of the box. Stamp the star with white paint on the top of the lid.
Spray entire surface with acrylic spray sealer and allow to dry.
