Printable vintage patriotic hymns are perfect for Memorial Day and 4th of July masses and church services as well as patriotic DIY projects and custom wall art.
Many readers already know that I love the look of sheet music, especially vintage sheet music. I use sheet music for all kinds of DIY projects. Sometimes I even make my own vintage sheet music for homemade craft projects. But there’s nothing that’s quite the same as using genuine sheet music.
The original collection of vintage hymns sheet music printables has been far more successful than I ever imagined. Since then, I’ve been releasing additional collections of vintage hymns for specific occasions. I have hymn sets for Christmas, baptism, Lent and Easter, and Thanksgiving as well as a collection of hymns about mothers and a collection of hymns about prayer. Now I’m releasing printable vintage patriotic hymns.
This collection includes 20 hymns from three different hymn books. There are multiple versions of a few of the hymns. The vintage hymns are ideal for masses and church services as well as craft projects and one-of-a-kind wall art.
This is the last hymn collection I’m releasing for the foreseeable future. If there are vintage hymns you would like that I haven’t made available yet or additional collections you’d like to see, please let me know. I’m happy to release more vintage hymn sets.
How to use the free printable vintage patriotic hymns
- Memorial Day and 4th of July masses and services. Vintage hymns are ideal for workship aids, bulletin inserts, and choir books for masses and church services over Memorial Day weekend and the 4th of July holiday. They’re also perfect for any other mass or worship service that calls for patriotic music.
- Wall art. One of the most popular ways to use vintage sheet music and other antique book pages is to make homemade wall art. Patriotic hymns look great as is and can also be overlaid with text and/or images, such as prayers, scripture verses, and patriotic quotes.
- Greeting cards. Antique hymns create a beautiful background for all types of greeting cards, including patriotic cards.
- DIY home decor. Sheet music is a perfect material to use for all sorts of handmade home decor, including but not limited to, tile coasters, glass magnets, and clothespin magnets.
- Scrapbooking. Antique sheet music creates whimsical backgrounds for both physical and digital scrapbook pages. Vintage sheet music is also ideal for DIY scrapbook embellishments.
- Prayer/spiritual journals. Use patriotic hymns as backgrounds or page components for prayer or spiritual journals around Memorial Day or the 4th of July.
