Help me choose my DIY project!

So I bought fabric that coordinates with the scrapbook paper I am using for a bunch of projects.  I originally wanted to make a fabric pennant banner like this:

The banner would g o around the bar area.

OR a bunch of memo boards to display some childhood and engagement pictures like this:

Can you do both?

I really like the pennant banner idea, it seems like a very easy way to add a little flair to the bar to tie everything together, and you know a lot of people will be spending time there! haha

I also vote both.   But if I had to chose between one or the other, I LOVE the look of the pennant banners.  SO adorable

I have to say that I love the memo boards, I think they would be adorable!! But yes, I like both as well

Hmm- I have about 10 yards or so of fabric, maybe I will start with the banner and keep my fingers crossed for enough fabric to make both.

I made memo boards to display pics out of chicken wire (I know that might seem crazy but I used to give it as gifts in college and people really liked it). I found this link to how to do one:

and here's a finished one on etsy

This one used a frame but I have just wrapped ribbon/fabric around the outer edge. Then you can hold pics up with clothes pins.  It has a rustic feel and I don't know what overall style you're going for.

Another idea is to put the pics on the flag banner. I think I saw that in martha stewart, but I think the flags were rectangles instead of triangles.

Good luck! I hope you post pics when you're finished.
