DIY Outdoor Christmas Sack Banner

I don't usually decorate our front verandah for Christmas, but this year a few decorations caught my eye that would be perfect. 

 

One was this large Christmas sack from Kmart for only $5.

 

 

To make it into a hanging banner, I hot glued the bag shut first.

 

I purchased a strip of primed timber from Bunnings for $5 and cut it into lengths to fit my sack top and bottom. Then I attached them to both ends using hot glue.

I purchased some jute rope at Ronis for $3.

And tied it to the top piece of timber on my banner.

 

 

I screwed a hook to the roof of the verandah close to the wall to hang my banner on.  It provides a bit impact and could also be used inside or in place of a wreath on your front door.

 

 

I'll be sharing my full front verandah tour shortly!
