Watermelons & Flags Garland

Here's an adorable summertime garland I whipped up with What's Lying Around That I Can Use?  


I made these primitive flags & watermelons using scrap fabric, buttons, some scrap felt for the backing and a quick stitch of cross-stitch floss to hold them all together.  





I then just glued them to a piece of leftover ribbon and Voila...super cute garland just in time for the 4th of July!
