I found this fun idea over at littlebirdiesecrets.blogspot.com quickly becoming one of my favorites for sure! She made a beautiful Thanksgiving welcome banner. I decided that since we are doing Thanksmas - Thanksgiving and Christmas in one weekend with our adult kids.....I of course needed a Christmas banner. One of my favorite Christmas tunes to sing has always been the 12 days of Christmas so that became the theme for my banner. What a great inexpensive way to add some fun new holiday decor!
First I cut out the shapes out of this pretty blue paper on my cricut. Michael's had this huge pack of Christmas on sale last week so I snatched it up cut it to fit on 6X12 inch pieces of black paper. Put the images for one-six on one side and seven - twelve on the other.
Added a few glitter emlishments!
And there you have it. I hung mine in an "open wall" between the living room and kitchen - so much fun! I think I've figured out why I loved teaching preschool for 20.2 million years. And since I had the paper and glitter out I made some of these fabulous snowflakes to hang from my kitchen light. Merry Thanksmas to all and to all a good night!
