DIY Spring Banner

As we transition from Winter to Spring there's no better way to welcome the warmth than with colorful blooms and fluttering butterflies! In this DIY project, we'll show you how to create a charming felt spring banner adorned with our butterfly and flower die cuts. Whether you hang it in your home or use it to decorate a spring-themed event, this banner is sure to spread joy and cheer!
 
1. Prepare Your Materials:
Gather all your materials in one place, including the felt sheets, die cuts, scissors, a hot glue gun, and twine or ribbon. Choose colors that say spring to you, such as pastel shades of pink, blue, green, and yellow.
3. Make Your Banner Base:
We used one piece of white felt and folded it over to create the banner shape. Then, we used our hot glue gun to glue the back and front sides together. Make sure you leave a small slot all the way across for you to loop your ribbon through later. 

 

3. Arrange the Die Cuts:

Lay out the felt butterflies and flowers in the desired pattern on a flat surface. Play around with different arrangements until you're happy with the design. Consider alternating between butterflies and flowers or creating a symmetrical pattern.

4. Attach the Die Cuts to the Banner:

Once you've finalized the arrangement, it's time to attach the felt butterflies and flowers to the banner. Apply a small amount of fabric glue or use a hot glue gun to secure each die cut onto the banner fabric. Press down gently to ensure a strong bond.

6. Attach Twine or Ribbon:

Once the glue has dried completely, slip your twine or ribbon through the top slot that we made earlier. This will allow you to hang the banner easily wherever you'd like to display it!

 

Now you just have to find the perfect spot to hang your DIY spring banner! Whether it's in your living room, kitchen, or outdoor patio, this charming banner is sure to brighten up any space and bring a touch of springtime magic. If you followed along, we would love to see! Tag us @overtheriverfelt
