This craft is a great way to use scrap tissue paper. I made this flag craft with leftover Christmas tissue paper. We even used a paper plate that had color on the other side.

Don’t worry too much about measuring the tissue paper and cutting it straight. I couldn’t tell too much that my kids didn’t cut straight when it was hanging up.

Paper Plate Flag Craft Instructions

Cut the paper plate in half. Then, paint the paper plate blue. Let paint dry completely.

Next, put the white star stickers on the blue paper plate. If you don’t have star stickers, you can cut out white stars from paper (this is what I did).

Cut red and white tissue paper into strips. I used 4 red strips and 3 white strips.

Next, glue the red and white tissue paper strips onto the bottom of the blue paper plate alternating a red strip then a white strip.
