NEW YEAR BANNER

I am linking up with KIMBA and LAURIE today

Happy New Year Banner

I had the idea to  make a Happy New Year Banner like the Merry Christmas one I bought right before Christmas  at Maines on clearance


I used the banner on my tree
Since I don’t take my tree down until the Epiphany I thought the New Year Banner would be cute too!


I bought these assorted color foam disks at the dollar tree
I had the rainbow ribbon and the shelf liner already on hand
But you can also use other ribbon or jute or even package ribbon
Also instead of the vinyl you can just use marker on the disks to spell out Happy New Year

All I did was
I cut the letters for HAPPY NEW YEAR from white shelf liner with my cricut
I then found my favorite rainbow striped ribbon and coordinated the colors
I ended up using yellow ~ green ~ pink

I then  added the vinyl to each letter and then hot glued the foam disk to the length of ribbon

 

Super easy and inexpensive and fun!



Here is how the NEW YEAR banner looks on my tree with the Christmas one
Yes, I forgot to light the tree for the pic and Yes, I still have a bunch of presents under it too
Keeping it real!
