Banners - No Sewing Required!

I am banner crazy these days...must be this AMAZING Austin weather!  Banners are a great way to get rid of leftover fabric pieces, add some sunshine to a space and release your creative energy!  AND...they are supah dupah easy!

What you'll need: 

- leftover fabric
- fabric scissors
- hot glue gun
- twine or string

1. Create a banner template (mine are 5" across, 8" top to point)
2. Trace around the template on your fabric pieces
3. Cut out and arrange the way you want them
4. Flop the top over the twine and glue down (be sure not to glue your twine if you want movement)

Voila!  Adorable every time!

If you're feeling extra lazy and don't want to create a template, just cut out rectangular pieces of fabric and hang them the same way.  I tried both and I think I like the rectangular strand better.  The piece sizes don't match but it looks perfect that way!  Have fun!
