Equipment
- Fabric Scissors
- Silhouette Cameo or letter stencils
- Scissors, if cutting letters by hand
Ingredients
- Burlap fabric
- Glitter cardstock
- Clear fabric glue
- Baker’s twine jute twine, ribbon, or string
- Tape
Instructions
- Cut the letters for “HAPPY FALL” from glitter cardstock using a cutting machine or letter stencils and scissors.
- Place each letter over the burlap and cut one piece of fabric for each letter, leaving a border around the cardstock.
- Center each letter on its burlap piece and attach it with clear fabric glue. Let the glue dry according to the adhesive instructions.
- Carefully make a small hole near both upper corners of each burlap piece, leaving enough space from the edges to prevent unraveling.
- Thread twine or ribbon through each burlap piece, keeping the threading direction consistent.
- Space the letters evenly along the twine and hang your finished banner.
Notes
Protect your work surface when gluing. The open weave of burlap allows glue to seep through easily.
