2. No-Sew Wallpaper Pennant Banner With The Honest Company®
Jessica Alba partnered with Spoonflower to bring wallpaper inspired by some of The Honest Company‘s® best selling prints. Read on to see inspiration from baby showers The Honest Company® gave to expecting moms during COVID and learn how you can make this creative party banner yourself.
Wallpaper Inspired by The Honest Company’s® Best Selling Prints
Materials Needed
- 1 Peel and Stick wallpaper sample in the design of your choice
- Card stock (a cereal box also works)
- 8ft of twine or embroidery thread
- Rotary blade or scissors
- Washi tape or push pins
- Hole puncher
- Step 1: cut out all 12 triangles, being careful to follow the lines as your guide. Peel the backing from the wallpaper and stick to card stock. Trim excess card stock.
- Step 2: Using a sharp hole puncher, punch holes in the left and right corners of the shortest edge of each triangle.
- Step 3: Starting on the design side, lace your twine through the punched holes so that the string lays behind each triangle. You can cut your twine in half to create two pennant banners.
- Step 4: Using washi tape or pins, attach each end of the twine to a wall and admire your work! If you keep all 12 triangles on the same string, support the middle with tape or pins.

This looks really great and easy. Thanks to you.
These look awesome!! I don’t know if it helps or not, but I did a similar thing for a different project, and it makes it easier to create a diamond (fold the material in half, where the fold is make V’s so when you unfold it’s a diamond) and then fold it over the string to create a triangle. Then you can just put a dot of glue at the tip of the triangle, and voila!
Thanks for the quick-tip!
