I bought this window for two bucks in TN....I would have spend 10 times that (literally) in Dallas. I had to store it at my pal's house for six months...along with about four others until I drove my car back up for a visit....and was able to take these with me. I'm pretty sure her husband canceled his membership to my imaginary fan club when I took up his garage space. I can live with that for a savings that big. I wanted to use this as a frame for my room. I bought some metal roses with magnets on the back, and then used a second magnet on the other side of the window to hold them in place. These hold up my pictures. I have a few more things to add but in the meantime....I wanted to make a little banner. My room needed a little more burlap to cancel out so much white.
I cut some burlap into the shape of pennants. I hot glued the top edge to some rope.
Burlap loves to shed. I didn't want to sew the edges, so I found this no fray glue 'stuff' at the craft store and ran it along the sides on the back. It dries clear, though I could still see it on the back side, but not on the front.
I cut out the letters on cardstock. I then just placed them over each triangle and used a dabber to dab white paint on the outline I had cut out. I did this using freezer paper in the past. Here is that tutorial.
