Your home becomes a bit of a cool and shady oasis at times on really hot days..
I just eyeballed it and ripped, so just go ahead and use whatever amount of fabric looks good to you!.Next, you’ll need to grab your iron and iron out your fabric.
When it’s nice and crisp, fold one side in and iron it flat like this:.Fold the other side in and iron it too!Make sure that your frayed edge ends up landing somewhere in the middle-ish of your strip so that the frayed edge doesn’t stick out when your bow is all done.
You could start with a wider strip and fold it in again so everything’s totally hidden, but that’s not really necessary because nothing will be showing once the bow is complete..Locate the middle of your strip and fold it in half there!.
Make two loops!.
Make two more loops!.You can make almost anything out of an old cereal box, I swear..
It doesn’t even have to be a fancy cereal box.It can be a generic one from Walmart too!.
I measured and cut some little rectangles (I think they’re about 7″x3″) and grabbed a foam brush and some Americana chalkboard paint.I love the chalkboard spray paint and the big cans of it too for bigger jobs, but these little bottles are perfect for all your mini chalkboarding needs..
