📝 What’s Included

Here are the details of my festive creation:

✔️The entire alphabet – From A to Z, you’ve got all the letters you need to spell out your celebratory greetings, and witty puns.

🥂 New Year’s Eve Party Banner

My favorite thing about this NYE party banner is I can use it to write whatever I want. It’s a truly versatile banner that lets you unleash your creativity.

🔍 How To Use

👉Decide what message you want to spell and count how many letters, symbols, and dividers you need.

👉Print on cardstock for best results. The banner will be sturdier if you use cardstock, and it will also look more stylish.

👉All the banner elements have light gray dashed outlines for easy cutting. You can use a pair of scissors or a paper cutter. I like to use both: the paper cutter (and a ruler) for straight lines, and the scissors for curved lines/circles.

👉Arrange the pieces to spell your message and secure them using string or ribbon and tape or glue. Hang and enjoy!

🚩 Banner Style Options

The various ways to string a banner can add diversity to your decor without extra effort. I sure am a sucker for these easy decor hacks!

Horizontal Banner

This is your classic, go-to banner style. Hang it above doorways, fireplace mantels, or even along a wall. You can make it as long or as short as you like, depending on your message and the space you have available.

If you have a longer message, it’s also a good idea to do several rows.

Vertical Banner

Want to add some height to your decor? Try a vertical banner! This style is perfect for flanking doorways, framing windows, and adding visual interest to a corner.

Zigzag Banner

Make it even more eye-catching with a zig-zag pattern! This will certainly make your decor more playful. I see this working very well with punny messages or questions.
