shabby chic trampoline banner

IMG_5351

Our trampoline is an eyesore.  It is old, well used, and is missing the net and padding.  It was in desperate need of a little dressing up for the summer.  Have you seen all of the cute oil cloth outdoor tablecloths at TJ Maxx?  I love them.  I stopped in and picked up a couple.  One was a pale blue floral, and the other was a butter yellow with white polka dots.  You know I love polka dots.  I also stopped at walmart and picked up some white bias tape.  I cut out a bunch of triangles, sewed them to the bias tape (alternating the floral with the polka dot) and tied them to the trampoline frame.
