Patriotic pail

Rejuvenate  an old bucket by wrapping it in the colors of the American flag.

what you'll need
Metal pail with handle
Hot-glue gun and glue sticks
4 yards of Winch-diameter red, white, and blue striped rope
Scissors

1 Wash and dry the pail.
2 Starting at the bottom of the pail, hot-glue the end of the rope to
the pail. Working with small sections at a time, tightly wrap the
rope around the pail and glue it in place. When you reach the
top of the pail, wrap the handle with rope.
3 Continue gluing the rope down the side of the pail. Cut off the
excess rope. If desired, glue rope down on the opposite side of
the pail. Secure the ends with glue if needed.
