~Tutorial for "Dr. Seuss" Hop on Pop Banner/Bunting ~

This is a quick and easy tutorial on how to make a banner or bunting for a party. I choose a Dr. Seuss theme for a baby shower I was helping out with, the baby’s room will be in a “Dr. Seuss” theme.  A simple way to decorate a wall area, and give the momma something to take home to possibly use again in a child’s room, or save it for another party.

 

Supplies needed;

 

-Book, (I bought mine second hand at GOODWILL for .50 cents!)

-Ruler, scissors, hole punch

-Yarn or string

 

Step 1~

 

 

 

Gather supplies, and measure out a flag shape onto your paper. I made this easy by folding my page in half and tracing (with a ruler) a simple flag shape.

 

 

Step 2~

 

Using scissors cut along the traced line. I cut through two pages at once.

 

Step 3~

 

Take your flag and punch two holes at the top, spaced approximately 2 inches apart for the string to run through.

 

 

Step4~

 

Gather your flags, and line them up shape wise into a pile. Take your string (yarn) and start to thread it through the holes.  I chose to reverse the order of holes one after the other so they would not overlap.

 

Step 5~

 

You should now have a long line of flags on your banner. Hooray you are done~! Be very careful not to tangle the flags as you are stringing them along. You have a beautiful, colourful, cheap paper banner!
