Fourth of July Firecrackers!

I found this link on pinterest about a year ago, and knew I really wanted to do it! Well i got the wood picked out months ago, and was ready to get going-but my husband never got around to cutting it how I wanted, so I didn't get to do it. Luckily for me my church ladies put together a craft night and they were doing these firecrackers! http://pinterest.com/pin/5981411974633384/

Anyways. The ladies just got some wood from home depot, and cut it to 3 different lengths. They cut out all different shapes of stars on their cricut with vinyl and that's what we used for the stars. Anyways, just used red white and blue paint, and stickers. We used some ropes for the wick-I loved the way they turned out. I used sandpaper to rough it up a bit. Here is my version!
