I am really into minimizing and utilizing the things I already have this year. That being said, there are always fun ways to decorate your home on a dime. This Upcycled Spring Banner DIY is made from things you can collect from around my house as a perfect decor piece right in time for Spring.

Here is what you will need to to make your own Spring banner.

Materials:

Premade banner (I purchased mine from Hobby Lobby.)
Fabric scraps (I also up cycled old shirts.)
Ribbon
Scissors
Fabric Glue
Cardboard to create your own pattern

Directions:

First, I cut my cardboard into a triangle that fits inside the premade banner. I used my cardboard pattern to then trace on my fabric scraps to create my fabric triangle pieces.
Iron your fabric pieces then use your fabric glue to attach them to the top of each triangle on the banner.
Lastly, I glued some ribbon along the top of each banner piece and then trimmed the ribbon to size with scissors.

This Upcycled Spring Banner DIY is easy and affordable and can be made in any color or theme. Enjoy your Spring! Dovidenia. XO

Materials:

Twine
Bunny booty kit from Hobby Lobby
Artificial eggs
Pussy willow sprig
Moss
Ribbon of your liking
Hot glue and gun
Scissors

First I wrapped my green ribbon on the bottom of my wreath then placed my eggs on top, both secured with hot glue. I placed and secured my pussy willow branch to the left of the wreath. I glued the bunny tails on the backside of the bunny cut outs. Then I tied the twine at an angle secured with a tied knot on the back side of the wreath. Lastly I glued the bunnies on the twine and tied a bow on top.
