Merry Christmas Banner


 Back today with another Christmas decorating idea that will fit your budget!!
Banners are a great way to decorate any holiday or event without spending
a ton of money and can be re-used from year to year!
 
This option was a free printable from the blog
Shanty 2 Chic
They have such great projects and offer a lot of free printable items!
Here is the link to the one I used
 
Below is a picture of the letters after I cut them from the
8.5 X 11 sheets.  Very simple and pretty quick!

 
To give them a longer life and more shape I mounted the letters
on Scrapbooking cardstock.  This is where you could add some of
your own flair to the project!
 
Since the banner was going on our mantel I kept the color
scheme pretty simple so it would go with the rest of our décor.
Here is a before picture of the mantel.
 
 
The banner is attached to the mantel with some masking tape
and the letter are hung on the twine with mini clothes pins that I had
left over from a previous project.

 
Just a close up of the banner.

 
I really love the vintage feel of the banner with the book page wreath
above it.  This was another great project from last Christmas!
Check out the link to my previous post on how to make the book page wreath!

 
So a banner may be a nice addition to your current holiday décor!
A fun inexpensive way to add Christmas Cheer!
 
23 days until Christmas!!
