Halloween Crafts: Candy Corn Pennant Banner

October 1, 2013 By Shannah Coe 11 Comments

Halloween is one of those holidays where decorating can go in two very different directions.  Some people focus on the spooky and scary {think lots of skeletons and black} while others go more for the fun, non-scary stuff {candy corn and pumpkins}.  We have two young kids so you can guess which way we tend to lean.  This year, H is getting to the age where she likes to really be involved in just about everything that I am doing.  So, we decided to focus some of our Halloween crafts on things she could easily help with like this candy corn pennant banner.Candy Corn Pennant banner with Treats_wm

This is a super simple craft that you can get your kids to help with or just do on your own.

Start with some triangles for painting.  Mine were pre-cut mdf triangles that I picked up from Pick Your Plum awhile ago. Candy Corn Pennant Triangles_wm
Measure the length of your triangles and then divide that length by 3. Mine were 6 inches long so each of my sections is 2 inches. I drew a {not so} straight line to mark off each section.Candy Corn Pennant Banner with Line_wm
Then, I turned H loose with a paint brush to paint the different sections. I helped too because we were working on borrowed time while E took his nap. E + cups of paint = a giant mess that I didn’t want to clean up!Candy Corn Pennant Banner White Paint_wm
We painted 6 total. Once they were all dry, I took some twine I had and strung it through the holes in the triangles to create the banner. I tied knots at each of the holes to keep the triangles from shifting.Candy Corn Pennant Banner 2_wmCandy Corn Pennant Banner_wm
I am just finishing up the fall decorating in our house {hangs head in shame for being so far behind} so I wasn’t quite ready to hang this up yet. So, I got my two assistants to hold it up for me while I snapped photos.Candy Corn Pennant Helpers_wmCandy Corn Pennant Banner Hanging_wmSingle Candy Corn Pennant Banner_wm
Do you decorate for Halloween? If so, do you go with the dark and scary or the bright and fun?
