Pinterest via Kara's Party Ideas
I saw this adorable pony banner on pinterest and thought I would try to duplicate one for Gwenna's pony birthday in June (check out the website, Kara's Party Ideas here for more wonderful party inspirations). I want it to go on our back gate where the kids will enter for their pony rides. Here is what I did:
1. My mom found a cute horse image online and printed it on heavy card stock then cut out the
center to make a stencil.
2. Starch and iron your fabric before you begin.
3 Cut out your flag shape. Have fun with it! They don't have to be triangles.
4. I mixed my own brown paint using tempura paints. Any fabric or multi- purpose paint will work.
5. Use a stiff paint brush to pounce on the paint-so it doesn't bleed under the stencil.
You could really do anything you want and make this work for most party themes.
Here is the beginnings of my banner! All I need to do now is cut a few slits at the tops of each little flag and string them on to ribbon; lavender ribbon, I think. I also have one more little surprise I will add and share with you a little later.
Should be cute, right?! Happy Saturday!
