No-Sew Summer Banner

Are you ready for another No-Sew Sunday? I’m joining my non-sewing bloggy friends for a round-up of easy summer projects!  For me, summer means play time … and play time means a fun, festive banner! I think you’ll love this little summer banner that you can put together in literally minutes!

A fun banner is such an easy way to add color in any space.

Most people use them for parties, but I like them any day of the week!

 

Mix and match fabrics add whimsy, but you could easily keep them all the same too.

 

The first thing you want to do is choose your fabrics. I found these complementary swatches at Walmart for less than a dollar each, and I had plenty of fabric left over (so I’ll have to create another project with the scraps).

 

Cut a triangle pattern out of cardboard and trace onto your fabric. Use pinking shears to cut your triangles. The jagged edges will keep the fabric from fraying. I cut through several layers of fabric at once so I wouldn’t have to do a ton of cutting.

 

Then all you do is hot glue the short edge of the triangles onto a stretch of ribbon. I used grosgrain ribbon. Leave a bit of length at the ends of your banner for tying it up.

 

I found the perfect place to hang my no-sew summer banner!

 

All in all, it took me less than 30 minutes to make my festive summer banner.
