game on get ready for some fun easy VBS decorations so number one it's Vacation
Bible School so you're probably going to have the kids memorize verses so we make
these really simple verse posters we started by printing out the verses in
large font on a regular piece of paper now we just cut out around them get some
glue and glue them onto the poster board and you get these awesome looking verse
posters to help kids memorize their verses for the week and then you can
just hang them up in the classroom or wherever they need to go idea number two
this one is a DIY chalkboard now we made ours to look like a baseball scoreboard
and the trick is using a paint that has a gloss finish that can be wiped off
with a damp cloth because you'll be able to write on it with chalk and then just
wipe it away with a damp cloth to make this we took a roll of butcher paper and
covered a movable whiteboard with the butcher paper and we painted the butcher
paper with a gloss finish paint and then we just added some details like the
words in the emmys this third project here is a way to make really easy
cutouts to put on the wall so I'm using a Mac so I just found some images and
then I opened it up in preview and I like doing an imprint of you because you
can adjust the sizing really easily so I have a projector set up and I have those
images projecting onto a piece of poster board and then I traced him out with a
sharpie once I traced him out I went ahead and
painted them and after painting them I retraced the lines just without where
those edges are super crisp I'll also show you another trick with the
basketball I first go ahead and paint it with my orange paint and then I take a
sponge brush to give it some texture just go up and down so here's the ones
that I made and just let the paint dry once you've finished retracing them and
then it's just a matter of cutting out your pieces of paper and then putting
them on the wall I love this idea because it's super easy and it works for
just about any VBS scene even if you're not doing sports just think of things
that makes sense for your theme and trace them out the fourth project is to
make a hanging banner so this one we need to say concessions for our snack
yeah so I took a normal piece of poster board and I divided it into eights just
use my ruler and a straightedge to divide it into 8 equal sections and then
cut it out if you want to get extra fancy you can use a paper slicer to
speed up the process and to make sure all your papers are similar in size so
once I get my pieces of paper cut out I'm going to cut a triangle out of the
bottom so I'm measuring 3 inches up from the bottom and then I'm going to make
sure I have it in the center so when I divided my poster board into 8 sections
there were 7 inches wide so I just made that middle point of the triangle and
I'm just gonna trace from that point I made to the bottom corners and I'm gonna
do that on each side but what's nice is once you do the first one you don't have
to keep tracing because I'm going to cut out that bottom triangle and then I'm
going to use that triangle as a template for all of my other ones so once you get
the first one made it goes a lot faster so I've got my cool pennant pieces here
and then I'm just gonna with a sharpie go ahead and freehand some letters on
there or you could do stencil just using the sharpie once more go ahead and fill
them in with a thick chunky sharpie once I was done making my pennant I punched
two holes on the top and ran some string to them and then use command hooks to
hang up my banner our fifth and final project is to use a table cloth to make
banners so as you can see I took it out of the packaging but I left it quoted up
really long and then I folded it in half long and I'm just going to cut along
that fold there and set one half off to the side so I've opened my first half of
the tablecloth and the one side is still folded in half so I'm going to cut along
the folded side and basically I'm gonna end up with 1/4 of a tablecloth but I'm
gonna do two of them at a time so as you can see here I don't have any folds left
now I'm going to fold the whole thing in half one more time and I'm gonna find
the corner that is still folded so not this corner but this corner that's still
folded and cut it from the fold corner up to the other side to create my pin if
you want to change up high your pennant looks you can cut from the side that
doesn't have a fold and cut inward and that would just give a different look
but then once I cut out that triangle I'm going to open it up and now I
have two pennants and I'm going to have another half of the tablecloth left over
that I can repeat the same process with so from one tablecloth you can get four
of these pendants there's my other half I've got to finish up with if you want
to take your tablecloth to the next level you can paint them and add phrases
whatever is appropriate for your VBS theme you can also use the tablecloth
idea to make a jumbo pennant so I went ahead and took one folded it in half and
cut out the bottom triangle like I did for the concession son there you can see
I have the giant one hanging on the wall I've forgot to get footage of this but
the smaller pennants I hung from the ceiling here's some bonus ideas you can
take a round table cloth and then use streamers and double-sided tape to make
either a baseball or a basketball really easily on the wall another cool idea if
you have a coat rack but don't know what to do with it hang up jerseys and sports
equipment here's an idea that I absolutely love using the projector did
you trace out some silhouettes put them on top of bright colored tablecloths and
they like super cool and are super easy to put up and take down for our main
auditorium we used a sports stadium themed backdrop that we have hanging
there we also had some lights for stadium lights great way to help set the
stage is to just get to normal wooden picnic benches and then cover them in
sports equipment things like coolers baseball badge cheerleader pom-poms they
all look awesome we also added a piece of green carpet just to help set the
stage and add to the outdoor sports field
don't know how this happened
