Who doesn't love a good Halloween project?!? I know I do! So this is such a great project to do thats pretty easy!
I think this ChalkMade™ kit is simply bootiful. Give us candy. Give us cake. Give us something sweet to make! Treat yourself with a little handmade happiness this Halloween with this spooktacular felt banner and its coordinating accessories.
This kit includes one of each of the following:
- Stitched decorative banner (9½” x 12½”)
- Exclusive B-sized Chalk Transfer® design
- Chalkology® Paste singles in Bright White and Orange Peel
- 2 Color Trays
- Mini Squeegee
- Wooden dowel
- Tassel accent
- Printed instructions
Bright White: “Or”, Bats
Follow these instructions to complete this project:
1. Remove your Transfer from its packaging.
2. Carefully peel off the Transfer Backer Sheet.
3. Center the Transfer on the Stitched Decorative Banner. Smooth the Transfer out to ensure it has properly adhered and that there are no air bubbles or wrinkles.
4. Knead your Chalkology Paste Singles. Cut open the corner of each packet and squeeze the desired amount of paste onto a Color Tray, using a new tray for each color.
5. Smooth a generous amount of Chalkology Paste over the Transfer using the Mini Squeegee (see “Color and Placement Suggestions”), pressing the paste completely through the screen.
6. Once the screen portion of the design is completely covered, squeegee the excess paste off as evenly as possible and scrape it back into the tray. The more excess paste you remove, the better the result will be.
7. Before the paste dries, slowly peel back the Transfer. To prevent any stretching, peel the Transfer back vertically from two parallel corners, instead of diagonally.
8. Immediately clean the Transfer with cool water and a Board Eraser. Do not leave the Transfer in water or let it soak.
9. Dry the Transfer flat with the sticky side up.
10. Insert the wooden dowel at the top of the Stitched Decorative Banner.
11. Attach the tassel accent to the wooden dowel as desired.
12. Thread the ribbon through the holes of the wooden dowel and tie a knot at each end.
13. Once the Transfer has been washed and dried, reapply the Backer Sheet and store it flat.
14. Relish your creation and embrace the beauty of homemade holiday projects!
