How to Create Free Printable Banners

Printable banners are usually made up of individual letters, each on a sheet of paper.

Banners are a great way to welcome a loved one home or wish him a happy birthday. They add a special touch to party decorations.



Print your own banner to save money and ensure you get to say exactly what you want. There are several websites with free banners available to print, or you can make your own using a word processor.

Things You'll Need

• Printer
• Paper
• String and/or ribbon
• Stapler

Instructions

Make your own banner

1. Load your word processor software and start a new file.

2. Type your banner message, with each letter on a new line.

3. Change the font size so that each letter is on a separate page. You will need to make the font around 600 points in size to do this.

4. Center the writing, and change the font, color and any other options you wish to make your banner look decorative.

5. Print your banner, ensuring each letter is printed on a separate sheet of paper.

6. Join the sheets of paper together. For example, you could attach each piece to a string or ribbon using a stapler.

Use a website

1. Use the "Printable Banners" website. Choose which type of banner you want from the menu on the left of the Web page and click the link. Click the picture of the banner you would like and then click "Download Free Version (PDF format)." Once the file has downloaded, you can print it and attach the sheets of paper together to form the banner.

2. Use the "Quality Kids Crafts" website. Select your occasion, then find a suitable banner from the list. Download the files (there may be several for one banner), then print and attach the pieces of paper together to create your banner.

3. Use the "Printer Projects" website. Select your occasion, then choose your banner. Save each individual letter, then print them on separate pieces of paper and attach together to make your banner.
