thanksgiving banner


Tomorrow I'm hosting a little Thanksgiving dinner, and today I decided I needed a little last-minute holiday themed decor... using things I had around the house. I remembered this image I pinned because I love the hymn the line comes from. I love the idea of putting text on a ribbon like this - or I would do a place mats or napkins for the Thanksgiving table if I had a more time. Instead I decided to make a banner for the mantel.

To make a simple banner, I printed the letters on colored cardstock in mirror image so that when I cut them out the front side would be clean. Then I just glued them on to a length of twine and hung it up - for a little quick and whimsical Thanksgiving festivity...
