How Do You Create the Banner?
Materials needed
- The printed banners (enough for at least one per family member)
- Pencil crayons or coloured pencils
- Scissors
- A hole punch
- String or twine
Steps to follow
- Print the banner templates on one side only.
- Write a wish, a hope, a joke, a dream or an inspiring phrase. Some examples:
I wish for everyone to have joy. My dream is to play in the snow. May the holidays be full of laughter! May every child get a nice toy! - Decorate the banners.
- Thread the banners onto a long piece of string or twine.
- Hang your group creation in a visible spot in your home.
Are you hosting family or friends for a Christmas brunch or dinner? Print and cut out several banners, then invite each guest, upon arrival or during the celebration, to take part in your decorating project by writing a short personalized message on one. You'll end up with a one-of-a-kind garland of wishes, full of warmth, that will remind you of this special time together for a long time to come!
