When my kids were still at home one of my favorite annual activities with the kids was Easter Resurrection Cookies. They tasted amazing and my children got to experience the Easter story in a hands on way. Win win!
We also did lots of crafts so this Easter banner was the perfect time for an easy craft that helps create memories as a family. Or if your kids are adults like mine, grab a grandkid or neighbor friend. Children love to help and this activity is all about family and memory making (plus a little bit of repurposing, too!)
This project may not have Easter bunnies but this could definitely have an outdoor use for an egg hunt at the starting line! Think outside the box with your materials

Step 1. Use my free oval printable and print on heavy cardstock.
Click here to get the free oval printable. I found this size works well with the larger paint chip cards.
Step 2. Cut out one oval to use as a template.
Step 3. Glue oval shape onto thick cardboard.
Step 4. Cut out oval and use as template to trace onto each paint chip.
Step 5. Use as many paint chips as needed to create the size banner you desire.
You can pickup paint chips at your favorite paint store or home improvement store. You can find paint chips here if you prefer to buy them.
Step 6. Attach paint chips to string or thread and add bows with a small pop dot.
Think creatively on other embellishments that could be added to spruce up the banner.
Step 7. Hang!
I love to add a banner or garland to my rustic barn wood floating mantel.
Happy Easter to everyone! If you loved this project check out all my other banner ideas below!

So simple and so pretty. We have a whole bunch of paint chips in a box somewhere that we got from a hardware store that closed down and I can’t wait to dig a few out to copy what you’ve done. Thanks for the inspiration Marty
Do you hoard paint chips too, Michelle? I used to use them on scrapbook pages!
Such a cute banner and so simple to do with items we all have around our homes.
Thank you, Anita!
So cute – you really used the varying colours to your fullest advantage!
