She created this burlap cover wreath from scraps in her craft room.

Her Instructions:
 I cut my burlap into strips long enough to wrap around the wreath.  I spray painted them red, white and blue.  Then using hot glue I wrapped them around the wreath and glued in place alternating red and white strips.  NOTE: be very careful gluing these on-the glue soaks right through the burlap and is very dangerous just ask my finger that is missing a big chunk of skin that was stuck to the hot glue (it's not pretty).

 Add the strips of blue.

Paint on the stars. I just free handed some stars with white paint and a brush.

 

And done.  Literally 15 minutes start to finish and I love everything about it.
