What happens when canvas flags meet wood veneer pennants? A DIY bride’s dream is what! If you visited the blog last Friday and read our Top 10 on Trend post you know that custom signage is a major trend right now. From ‘Welcome’ guest greetings to sweet messages perfect for photo opps, personalized signs are a simple and charming way of adding both your personality and a touch of decorative flair to your wedding day. With the coupling of two great textures, fabric canvas and wood veneer, today’s post brings you yet another way of pulling the custom sign concept into reality, the irresistibly sweet and sentimental {and super easy to do} bride and groom chair banner. Here’s how to make the look yours.
The Supplies
- personalized wood veneer pennants
- canvas fabric diy pennants
- craft paper twine
- satin ribbon in pastel pink, blue vapour and white
- scissors and glue gun
The Step by Step
Step 1: put a drop of hot glue on the reverse side of each of the three points of your veneer pennant.
Step 2: promptly position onto the canvas flag.
Step 3 (not shown): repeat steps 1 and 2 for all your letters and symbols.
Step 4: prior to gluing, mock up your banner and map out your positioning by laying out all your pennants against your craft twine. Try to keep consistent with the amount of space you keep between each letter and symbol.
Step 5: run a thin line of hot glue along the back of each flag and position your twine.
Step 6 (not shown): repeat step 5 for all your letters and symbols.
Step 7: pull and cut several strands of ribbon for your banner trim. Create two bundles, one for the bride’s chair, one for the groom’s. Consider using varying but complimentary colors for each bundle.
Step 8: string your completed banner onto your chairs.
Step 9: tie your ribbon bundle into a simple knot to the outer side of your chair and tuck away behind your banner.
Step 10: Repeat on the other chair.
