I was pretty excited when I heard about the Pinterest Challenge, mostly because it was a good kick in the butt to finish this DIY bunting flags art I've been thinking about. It's a combination of two pins on my inspiration boards:
Lindsay's gorgeous DIY bunting flags and...
Emily's cute above-the-bed art.
So over the weekend I grabbed some supplies - including Lindsay's bunting flags template - and sketched a couple of 'strings' across my dollar store canvases with a Sharpie. After cutting out the flags, I used Modge Podge to attach them to the canvases (I applied two thin coats over the entire surface of the canvases). Once the canvases were dry, I used upholstery tacks to attach the twine to the frames and hung them on some rustic-looking nails in our guest bedroom.


Adorable! And this is reminding me to get busy on a canvas and modge podge project that I've been thinking about for the last couple months.
ReplyDeleteThanks Erin! This was my first time using modge podge, but now that I know how easy it is I will definitely try it again.
