Crate of Fireworks

This little crate is perfect for creating a table centerpiece or favor.  I decorated this one for the 4th of July.

 

 First I stamped the crate using a wood grain stamp and vintage photo distress ink for a natural wood look.

 I assembled the crate by folding it up and using liquid glue to hold the tabs in place.

 I cut a piece of craft foam to fit the bottom of the crate and then I filled it with star garland from the dollar store.

 I painted and glittered some of the stars from the deco stars set.

 I created my bottle rockets and fire crackers by rolling patterned paper tightly into a tube and glued it in place.

 The wicks are made from tinsel pipe cleaners and the sticks are bbq skewers.
