A Simple Valentine’s Banner…

Here’s a fun banner to make with your kids (or for yourself), and customize the way you like- I wanted mine to have a pretty, aged, vintage feel.

All you’ll need is paper enough to make your banner as long as you would like, clothespins (I found these tiny ones at Office Depot for $1.49), and paints and pens (or whatever you want to decorate them with). 

Cut out the hearts. I decorated mine with a soft edge of metallic red watercolor. (It really sparkles in the sun! I couldn’t get a photograph to do it justice.) I took it one step further and copied out 1 Corinthians 13 (MSG) longhand in pretty handwriting with a black micron pen. I then used Jenni Bowlin letter stickers to spell out the last part of the chapter.  

Hang, and enjoy!
