\nMaterials<\/b><\/p>\n

Scissors, white pencils, regular pencils, t-squares, rulers, masking tape (craft tape), white duct tape (gaffer’s tape), inexpensive weed barrier fabric, brown craft paper. Optional: grommet kit, gorilla tape, and black ripstop cord.<\/p>\n

Process<\/b><\/p>\n

Plan the letter sizes and positioning.<\/p>\n

Draw and cut letters out of craft paper.<\/p>\n

Attach to fabric with masking tape. Adjust letter positioning.<\/p>\n

Trace outlines around the letters with magic marker or white pencil.<\/p>\n

Fill in the outlines with white duct tape.<\/p>\n

Optional: Reinforce corners and spots along top with gorilla tape. Punch holes with grommets. Make loops with ripstop.<\/p>\n

The finished result is durable and can be used again and again.<\/p>\n

Congratulations to Jamie, Lorenzo, Robert, Alexis, Tom, and others from Rise and Resist<\/a> on creating an effective piece of protest art!<\/p>\n

Cheaper than professional printing<\/a>, unless you count the cost of labor. 3.5 hours from 6 people fabrication time, plus time acquiring materials, not to mention time in meetings deciding the slogan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
