DIY Kid’s Watercolor Banner

alt

This banner will look awesome hung up on their wall or it can be made up as a special party banner.



So here’s what you’ll need to get you going:

 

  • Watercolor paper
  • Watercolor paints
  • Paint brush
  • Large hole punch
  • Double sided tape
  • String
  • Scissors

Punch out your circles from the watercolor paper. You can use thinner paper, but it might not hold up as well with the paint.

alt

Once you have all the circles punched out, lay them out for painting!

I put down an oilcloth table cloth that I use for messy crafts with my son. But if it’s an older kid, you might not need/want to worry about it.

alt

We went the oh so fabulous splatter technique. My son loved it! Just dip your brush in the water, then the paint choice. hold the paint brush over the circles and tap the brush. The colorful splatters will thrill your little one.

alt

Let them fully dry.

alt

Then fold them into halves – to get the scalloped look.

alt

Cut your length of string, making sure to give yourself enough string on the ends to hang the banner when it’s finished.

alt

Use the double sided tape to secure the paper around the string.

alt

Once you have finished that, your new kid made banner is ready to hang!
