Project... Spring Banner
Items used for this project:
- Blank wooden banner purchased from Michael's.
- Tranquil vinyl pack from www.modernstickercompany.com
- Ribbon or twine to tie it all together
These banners from Michael's come triangle cut with 6 to a pack with the holes cut for just a couple of bucks!! Such a fun find! They have other banner shapes too and you could easily buy multiple packs to create whatever size of banner you wanted.
I sanded the edges a bit before I got started but other than that they were ready to go! I chose the vinyl and cut it down to size.
Pull the backing off your vinyl and press the triangle piece onto it. Trim the edges with a sharp x-acto knife. For the holes I just made a little slit with the blade and then pushed the vinyl through it as best as I could. You could also cut the holes out completely, which I did do on one of them but liked the pushed through look better.
Once all the triangles were trimmed I cut some spring letters out of a matte dark grey vinyl. But after applying the dark grey I realized it blended a little too well... so back to the cutter I went for a layered look. White vinyl background with the dark grey on top did the trick :)
Strung some white ribbon that I had laying around through that banner and called it day!
See my other post about here about the Polka Dot Monogram I covered to complete this finished look.
You know what makes me super happy about this particular banner!?? When spring is over I can flip the triangles around make a new banner on the other side!! Ha! Autumn... Summer... Happy! Anything! 2 for 1 kind of fancy going on here!! Enjoy!
