Making a Playhouse Banner With Oly*fun

To decorate my Grandson's Playhouse for his 5th birthday, I made a colorful banner out of oly*fun.
It's a super simple project.
Since the family party is at his house, I had an idea to make a bright colorful banner to decorate the new playhouse.


I had recently received a selection of oly*fun to work with and thought it would be perfect to use.
What exactly IS oly*fun?


oly*fun is a specially engineered material that features some of the best things about fabrics AND papers. Easy to cut or die-cut and it will not fray. It is great for outdoors
Here’s what I used:


•oly*fun: Orange Crush, Jet Black and Kiwi


•Versatile Checks 12″ x 12″ Stencil (Deco Art)


•Black Acrylic Paint


•Stencil Brush


•Circle Die Cut


•Twine


•Beacon Fabri-Tac Permanent Adhesive


•Tiny Stapler
Directions:


1.Stencil the check pattern using the black acrylic paint on the orange oly*fun.


2.Create a banner pattern on cardstock.


3.Cut out the banner pattern and trace onto the stenciled oly*fun.


4.Trace and cut several banners out of the black and green oly*fun.


5.Cut strips and circles to decorate the banners. Glue onto banner with Fabri Tac Glue.


6.Fold top of the banner and staple onto the piece of twine.


7.Tie the banner onto the top of the playhouse and watch the kids play.
