***UPDATE***Where can I find a super-cute canvas BIRTHDAY BANNER??

[Corie]

I think Pottery Barn Kids used to sell one. I would like
a really nice canvas painted Birthday Banner to hang
on the front door. :)

Do you have a Birthday Banner for your child and where
did you get it??

Something like this...found an old picture on Ebay.

I got Jordan's 1st Bday banner from birthdayexpress.com. It was $15 dollars, but very durable and cute. I wish that I had only written "Happy Birthday Jordan" instead of "Happy First Birthday Jordan" so that I could reuse from year to year.

Thanks, Michelle!

I'll have to check them out! :)

Great post! I've been meaning to ask the same thing.

Corie, I just **know** that I saw a post about birthday banners a while back. They were custom made, maybe canvas, but definitely looked like the *type* you are looking for. If I am correct, someone even posted a picture of her banner. It may have even been a WAHM business. I did my own search in Around the House and the Lounge but I didn't find anything. If you don't get any responses here, I would post in the Lounge, because I know someone out there has an answer for you!


ETA: Here is one I found on-line:

Here is the thread discussing it, I don't know if the discount is still valid:

Eileen,

Thank you so much!! I've been trying to find this thread too!
I also remembered a discount being offered on birthday banners.

I was about to go crazy!! (or crazier! :) )


Also, great idea about posting in the Lounge! I may do that
today! The Lounge gets so much traffic.


Thanks again! :)

Corie,

I ordered my daughter's banner from Purple Daisy Kids and posted a picture a while back. Jennifer from PDK is awesome and was so patient with me while I was deciding on the perfect fabric schemes for the banner. Ours is in red and pink, so that it will work with pastels or primary colors. It is made with gingham and polkadot fabric. SO well made--I can't say enough--LOVE it!! I have hung it on our curtain rod in our family room for the past 2 years. Jennifer might be able to make something custom if you want a different shape.

I'm having trouble posting pictures, but will e-mail you a picture of ours.

Hope that helps!
