Burlap Banners


I love to decorate for the holidays but my apartment is so small so I am limited on space. This is perfect because I can throw the banner on anything like a bookshelf, TV stand or wall and not look cluttered in my apartment.. This craft fits my criteria perfect...cheap, easy and quick!


Materials:

1.Burlap
2. Marker to trace
3. Scissors
4. Paint
5. Glitter
6. No fray glue
7. Twine
8. Hot glue
9. Sponge brush



First I made my own stencil and traced it on the burlap then cut it out.


After cutting it out I used this glue that is amazing! I put it all around the edges and used a sponge brush to rub it in. I got mine at Joann's but I heard some Walmart's have it. This stops the edges from fraying so it lasts longer.



After it was done drying I cut out a heart stencil and painted it in with a sponge brush. Then immediately after I put glitter over the wet paint rubbing it in with my finger




After drying, hot glue the twine on the banner.




Here is what I did for our Anniversary...
