Create this simple Java Banner!
Let me show you how to create this super simple Java Banner!
Okay, before we get started I know that many of you are like “Hey, this looks like the Beach Basket from a couple of weeks ago!” …Why yes, yes it does. But if you recall, I have 6 baskets I need to fill and decorate. And, while each basket will end up looking practically the same, I wanted to show you what a smaller title with an icon could look like. Hence my Java Banner Basket.
For this particular basket, I decided to store a Costco box of coffee K-cups inside – Holiday Blend to be exact. Because my Keurig Coffee Maker is in my laundry room (which is kitty corner from my craft room) it only made sense to use one of the baskets for storage. This of course frees up the very limited cupboard space I have in that room.
THE JAVA BANNER RECIPE:

The DIRECTIONS:

- Use THIS LINK in Cricut Design Space to cut the banner & coffee cup pieces.
- Attach small 3D Foam Dots to the back of your lettering and coffee cup before attaching to the Banner pieces.
- Run Twine through the holes of the banner pieces, leaving enough room on each end to be able to tie the banner to the object of your choosing.
Again, such a super simple project!
This project took me around 10 minutes to complete, once everything was cut.
