Christmas Banner
Things you’ll need:
- Colorful hard A4 papers
- Ribbon or String
- Glitters
- Scissors
- Fevicol
- Paint Brush
Procedure:
- First cut the colorful paper of your choice in fourteen rectangle shape for each letter. They should be roughly equal.
- Cut a small triangle at the bottom of each rectangle paper.
- Take some glue on the paintbrush and write a letter on the rectangle shape and sprinkle glitter. Do this to the remaining thirteen papers.
- Dust the excess glitter off. To make your banner more colorful and vibrant you can use multiple colors of glitter or multiple colors of paper in an alternative or random fashion.
- Let the glue dry (it will take about 30 mins) so that you don’t ruin your letterings. Meanwhile, cut a string or a ribbon long enough to hold all the letters in the slogan.
- You can either tape or glue the ribbon on the back of the papers. Make sure that the papers are in equal distance from one another to make your banner seem more professional.
- If you want to go an extra mile, then cut two extra rectangular shapes with a triangle in the bottom, and draw Christmas trees on them with the help of a glue and sprinkle the glitter like before and glue them with the words.
