Bachelorette Party DIYs: Word Banner

On part 2 of my Bachelorette Party DIYs Tiktok series, I show you how I made my word banner using my Cricut.

My best friend, the BRIDE, is from Texas but currently lives in Florida. She is coming back to the lone star state for her Bachelorette party (because Texas girls have way more fun).

I am planning a winery weekend in Fredericksburg with some Texas southern spice added on. Itinerary coming soon!

What you’ll need:

–Glitter Card Stock

-Twine

-Scissors

Steps:

For Cricut users, I started in Design space and typed out the phrase I wanted to cut. For this sign, I am doing “Let’s Make Pour Decisions”.

I added the holes for the string to go through and attached them to each individual letter. You could also skip this step and just use a hole punch, but this ended up working out perfectly.

After all the letter were attached and resized, I updated the colors so that “pour” was in contrast white glitter while the rest of the words were gold. Then I went to cut, set the Cricut to “glitter cardstock,” and began the cut.

While all the letters were cutting, I measured out the twine and cut to the length I wanted to use. Using a mirror on the wall as reference, my twine ended up being about 6.5 ft. I cut two strings this length.

I highly recommend using twine for these types of banner because of the loose fibers. These fibers prevent the letters from sliding around while hanging or transporting the sign.

After all the letters are cut, lay them all out and arrange them how you would want them hang. Then begin assembly. Since the holes are precut, this part is super simple.

And ta da!
