I love banners and enjoy seeing them all over blogland but couldn’t decide what I wanted mine to look like. I knew I wanted it to be “every day” and not seasonal or special occasion. I finally decided on a Love, Eat, Pray theme.

Materials I used:

1. Canvas Corp. Burlap Minis {4}
2. Canvas Corp. Canvas Shapes {5}
3. Deco Art Americana {black}
4. Deco Art Number Stencils
5. Clock Stencils {from scrapbooking store}
6. Foam brush {Rockler}
7. Sharpie permanent marker or fabric Stain marker {black}
8. Letter stamps and ink.
9. Twine
10. Hot glue/gun

On the four Canvas Corp. burlap minis, I wrote “T”, “I”, “M”, “E” using a Sharpie.  Next using a foam brush with Deco Art Americana in black and stenciling directly onto Canvas Corp. canvas shapes (triangles) using Deco Art’s number stencils (I used number “2”…love these stencils 0-9. They’re a great size and are going to get so much use!) and various clock stencils. I stamped the words “love”, “eat” and “pray” on a three out of the five canvas shapes.

I laid out my five canvas shapes with “love”, “eat {2}” and “pray” as the center three. In between, I used the four burlap minis spelling “t-i-m-e”. Using hot glue, I attached each banner triangle to twine, measuring a distance of 3 inches between each and tying a loop for hanging on the ends.

Each banner triangle has it’s own character…

Sweet reminder at dinner time to “pray, love & eat” and it looks cute too, don’t you think?  🙂
