National Craft Month: Spring Banner

In honor of March being "National Craft Month" {my favorite month of the year, not just because it's my birthday month} I have decided to make 1 craft a day for this whole week.

They are all simple, easy, springy and best of all CHEAP crafts!

This first craft is one of a few that I will be doing for my mantle. Since I took down my Christmas decor, this fireplace has looked pretty bare. Time to spruce it up!

I am all about the quick crafts that can be made in one nap or less:)
Although I used the word SPRING, you could really do this with just about anything. I thought about writing "HE IS RISEN" or "HAPPY EASTER" but I wanted to be able to use it through April even after Easter was over. Although they are so easy to make I could easily make multiples and swap them out.

Spring Banner!

Supplies:
Scrapbook paper
Cut out letters
Glue
Scissors
Hot Glue

Directions:

Trace and cut out the letters...or you could just buy pre-cut letters, or print them out on the computer...the possibilities are really endless;)



Glue the letters to the triangles

Hot glue the triangles to the ribbon

Hang your cute new banner

Happy Spring!
