Celebrate family pride with a homemade banner that represents your collective interests.
| Prep Time: Under 1 hour | |
| What you need: | |
| 2 yards of 72-inch-wide felt
Assorted 9- by 12-inch felt rectangles 3 1/2 yards of decorative cording Craft glue | |
| Seasons: Rainy day, Year round | |
| Materials: fabric | |
| Instructions: | |
| 1. | Trim the large piece of felt into pennants, one for each family member. Make an extra for the center of the banner and glue on letters (cut from a contrasting felt square) to spell your family name. You may want to consider using liquid embroidery paint to inscribe a motto on the flag, such as United We Stand or Do Your Best. |
| 2. | Individuals can decorate their own pennants by gluing on a variety of felt shapes. A dancer, for example, might choose pink ballet slippers. And don't forget to include a likeness of the family pet. |
| 3. | To assemble the banner, place the completed pennants on a flat surface, spacing them about 3 inches apart. Run a bead of glue along the upper edge of each one. Lay the cording on top of the glue and press down gently to make it stick. |
| 4. | Once the glue is thoroughly dry, you're ready to raise the flag. |
