Top Tip
To save painting extra wooden letters as decoration for the banner, re-use the wooden flowers from printing.
How to Make
- Paint a wooden banner blue. Leave to dry then add another coat so the banner is evenly covered. Leave to dry.
- Measure and cut out some card strips, 2cm wide for the letters. Trim the strips into smaller pieces, with a curved piece for the D. Glue the pieces together and leave to dry.
- To print the flower patterns, lightly sponge some paint onto a wooden flower then press it onto one of the card letters. Carefully lift up the flower then repeat to make more prints using different paint colours. Leave to dry.
- Place a doily over the wooden banner to stencil the background. Lightly sponge paint through the doily holes, carefully lift it up then re-position it to make more patterns in the same way using different colours. Leave to dry.
- Glue the EID letters onto the banner with wooden flowers around the edge. Thread the holes at the top with twine.
