Every once in a while I'll get an itch to do something a little creative. As I was taking down my Halloween decorations I realized that I had no Thanksgiving decorations. Besides the pumpkins that I have outside on the porch, nothing! I had seen a banner in a Pottery Barn catalog a few years back that said, Happy Thanksgiving. It was made out of felt and was quite charming. It was ONLY $60 so.................um, yeah, I figured I'd try to make it myself.
For some reason when I went to the store I could not find the felt. As I was walking around , however, I came across some scrapbook paper that was 10 sheets for $1. Hmmmm, the paper was really nice and colorful and I figured there was no way the felt was as cheap as the paper. This would definitely be a better choice! It took about two days to make and voila, a cute banner for under $3. I don't think it gets cheaper than that!
It was so cute. Cecilio helped me cut out leaves.
He actually made the stencil for the leaves! He's thrilled can you tell?
