How to DIY Party Banners: Assembling Your Party Banner
Secondly, it’s time to assemble your banner!
- Cut out your pieces using the scissors I recommend, or any other scissors you have lying around the house.
- Punch holes at the top of each piece. (In all of my printable party banners, I have clearly marked where to punch the holes.)
- Place your banner in the correct order so it’s all spelled correctly
- String the ribbon through each hole. (Start in the front of each banner piece, and push through the hole to the back so that the string/ribbon is in the back.)
Finishing Your Party Banner
- I like to make sure each piece of the banner is evenly spaced. Perfection is pretty!
- Hang up your banner in your desired location using tape or push pins.
- Yay! You’re all set!
