To celebrate Miss K’s 1st birthday I scoured Etsy for the perfect banner bunting to use as a backdrop for her photo’s. Unfortunately I couldn’t find anything locally so I decided to make my own!
Here is my easy DIY for a name banner bunting:
Supplies
- Bunting
- White paint
- Drop sheet
- Foam brush
- Cardboard (optional)
- Ribbons
The bunting and ribbons were sourced from my local Spotlight, however you should be able to pick these up from Kmart or your local craft store. The paint, drop sheet and foam brush were from a previous DIY project and purchased from my local Bunnings.
Let’s DIY:
- Lay out the drop sheet and place your bunting on top.
- Paint the letters onto the bunting. Be aware that the paint will seep through the holes in the bunting so ensure you don’t move the bunting around. Alternatively you can paint on top of some cardboard so you don’t have to be as careful or wait for the drop sheet to dry.
- Leave the paint to dry for a few minutes and repeat once more or until you’re happy with the colour (I did this twice).
- Once the paint has completely dried, assemble the ribbons to your liking.
- Hang and voila!
