I love it when I find pretty things!  And the other day, I found lots and lots of pretty things!  And they inspired me to create something beautiful!  So today I am really excited to share a really fun Inspirational Banner that I created using some fun items from Jen Hadfield's Home + Made line of craft products!  I really love how simple this was to create and how beautiful it is hanging in my home!  I love how inspiring it is!

DIY Inspirational Banner - so simple and beautiful

I can't tell you how thrilled I was to receive a big box full of her beautiful goodies a while ago!  The colors, textures and designs are simply to-die-for!  They were so inspiring and I couldn't wait to begin crafting!

Goodies

But there were a few items that really caught my eye!  I immediately fell in love with these gold clips and this beautiful inspirational paper!

Favorite Goodies

How could you not love those!?  They are amazing!  As I thought about how I could incorporate them into my home I realized that this would make a really cute inspirational banner!  I just love banners!  And I am really happy with how this one turned out!

I haven't decided yet if this will go in my new Craft Room or maybe in my little girl's room.  But for now I am really enjoying this!

To create this banner, you will need:

  • Sweet Greetings Paper
  • Dotted Blossoms Paper
  • Gold Metal Clips
  • White and Gold Baker's Twine (or similar)
  • Paper Cutter
  • Scissors

I began by using my paper cutter to cut out three of my favorite quotes from the sweet greetings paper.

Next I cut four rectangles of the same size out of the dotted blossoms paper.

Then I cut a little triangle out of the bottom of each of these to make the dotted blossom paper into a cute flag shape!

I hung my baker's twine up and used the gold clips to secure the quotes and flower paper flags to the twine!

And it is really that simple!

    I enjoyed reading your post. This is a very positive little banner. It would be nice on the master bedroom mirror I think.
