What a cute idea for creating a bank from plastic canvas! This bank looks just like a quaint house and will look great in the den or a child's room.
Coins are deposited through the chimney. How fun is that!
I can imagine this pattern done so many different ways. Using different colors would change its looks but what if you made the house 3 or 4 squares wider and 2 or 3 squares shorter? You could even add a sign over the door that says "Your Name Bank"
