{Creating a Burlap Banner}

Super cute and soooo super easy!  Here is an example of my Easter Banner I made.  
Supplies:
Burlap
Stencil (I used a 4 inch stencil, but go with the size you want your overall banner to be)
paint (any color)
scissors
twine/jute
pins
ribbon of your choice
First start with making a template of how big to cut your burlap.  I swear this was the most time consuming thing of the entire project! I have seen banners made with squares instead of flags and that would probably be easier than the flags--go with the style you want.  I traced a letter onto a lid of a shoe box and then drew a triangle around it using a ruler.  Super easy.

With a foam brush I simply used white craft paint and filled in the stencil
