13 DIY Canvas Banner and Pennant Tutorials
I feel like I’ve been on a Canvas Banner making kick the last few months (most of them I’ve posted here, but a few are being saved tutorials later this month). I just think they are so cute, and there are a million ways to customize them.
Recently, I spotted many cute and clever DIY Canvas Banner & Pennant tutorials online. Today, I thought I’d share some of the ones I found with you.
A few summers ago, my family was on a summer road trip through the Carolinas, Georgia, and Florida. We made a pit stop for the day at a cafe my Mom told me to check out called the “Back in the Day Bakery”. The food was delicious, just as we had heard, and the decor was just as great as the food. (They have a cookbook; by the way, my Mom loves it, and I’ve been meaning to order it for a little while).
While eating lunch, I noticed a cute banner on the wall. I thought it was such a clever craft idea. Theirs said, “Best Pie.” I immediately thought it would make a cute DIY project and be fun to customize for different holidays and occasions. Since then, I’ve made a few banners and spotted several online. It’s a craft trend that I can get behind!
Today, I’ve rounded up 13 fun and clever DIY Canvas Banner (or Pennant) tutorials for you! Does anyone feel a “crafternoon” coming on?
13 DIY Canvas Banner & Pennant Tutorials
1- Dorm Room DIY Canvas Banner
This fun Dorm Room Canvas banner was inspired by my daughter’s 1st dorm room. To say it was a mess is an understatement. These banners are great decor for a dorm room since they are lightweight and easy to hang.
2- Peace on Earth Canvas Christmas Banner
I created this Christmas Banner this year with the help of my Cricut Machine (many of these banners use e-cutting machines). I was able to cut out the letters with the machine. Since the font I used is just a bare block font, you could easily spell out almost any phrase that you like. It’s also a great way to use up some scrap fabric.
I created this Trick or Treat banner just a few months after spotting the one in Savannah. I LOVE to decorate for Halloween and was more than happy to make myself yet another Halloween decoration.
4- Mini Hearts Banner Oh, Happy Day
Why is everything cuter when it’s small? This mini Canvas Heart Banner is so simple to make you can do it all by hand.
