These re-production vintage cards gave me inspiration...
to create this Valentine Banner..
Glitter, glue, lace & ribbon...
and vintage buttons too...
..all adorn this fun & festive garland.
It is 4 1/2 feet long...and each section is 8" X 11"
How incredibly cute, Carrie. Banner's are all the rage now!

Very cute Carrie! I was thinking about making something similar because my mantel looks so bare after taking the holiday decorations down. I made one for spring last year that I really enjoyed.
ReplyDeleteNancy
your banner turned out so cute! I've been collecting some vintage valentines and maybe thats what I should use them for! I just need more time... If I were you, I would keep that one. it looks cute hanging right where you have it!
