    Burlap Banner Tutorial & Baby Shower Things

    I just wanted to share with you

    a little bit more of my girls baby shower

    things I am working on ~

    They are going to have a combined

    shower so that will be fun!

    I showed you Kristin's invitations

    in a previous post and here

    are Stephanie's too ~

    It is going to be all vintage and

    creamy tones ❤ ~

    Today I worked on some little

    burlap banners with their babies names

    and wanted to show you the steps to

    make them ~

    They are super easy and can be

    done any size ~

    First I use Avery brand white

    shipping label sheets ~

    Peel

    of the backing and stick it on to

    a piece of muslin ~

    Cut right on the edge of the sheet

    and run it through your printer

    (print on the muslin)

    I just did the name in photoshop ~

    Next cut out each letter and peel

    off the backing ~

    Cut out burlap triangles and pin

    and sew the letters to them ~

    Fold down the top and sew down

    leaving the ends open to run a

    piece of jute through it ~

    I also zig zagged the edges all

    the way around because I didn't want

    them to fray away ~

    That is it !

    Here are some tissue pompoms that

    I am also making but need to make

    a few more ~ They are fun !

    More shower pics coming soon!
