For the side tables, you can craft some cute little pots with a Stars and Stripes motif. Small styrofoam balls are great for holding the flags, stars and streamers in place.

American Flag Patriotic Wall Art
It doesn’t get any more patriotic than the American flag, and this wine cork upcycle craft is not only cute, but easy to make, and easy on the environment! It’s time to get ready for Memorial Day and the 4th of July!You meed: 35 wine corks approx. same size, Blue paint, Red paint, White paint or chalk pen. Cork board or cardboard for backing, Hot glue gun and hot glue, knife, knife board. Push pins, Small paint brushes, Twine, Drop cloth or newspaper.
Separate out corks: 8 for blue, 16 for red, 11 for white or plain. Place corks on cork backing. Mark just under the entire surface and cut. The backing should be slightly smaller than the surface of all of the corks.
Using an Exacto knife, cut the backing. Yours may be different, but for reference, mine was about 8 1/2″ by 5 1/2″.
Paint the blue and red corks.
4 of the blue corks and 6 of the red corks will need the ends painted. To eleviate, at least some of the mess, push a push pin in the top of a cork to hold it while you paint it, and you can even paint the end this way. Then use the brush to give the cork some pressure and the push pin will come right out.
You can either paint the remaining corks white or leave them plain. I wanted to leave mine plain.
Let the corks dry for about an hour or so.
Place the corks one more time on the backing, just to make sure you are squared away before gluing.
Using your hot glue gun, glue one cork at a time.
Let dry for 15 minutes.
Paint the white stars with either white paint or a chalk pen.
You can use a couple of thumb tacks to attach the twine or fasten it to the backing with hot glue.
You are all set!
Red, white and blue for your plants
Tip: use mason jars of the same size
