DIY First Communion Party Sign

I found this gorgeous linen fabric pin board at Home Goods about a year ago. I felt like it could go with so many different styles, so of course I picked it up. If you follow my blog at all, I’m sure you’re not surprised that I bought a few pin boards for future decorating and party clients…or for myself! They always have pin boards at Home Goods, so take a look if you are in the market for one!

It turns out that I NEEDED a pin board while planning my most recent first communion party. The guest of honor, a nine-year-old little girl, had chosen a party that was full of pink, white, and gold! It’s a little twist on a classic first communion party! You can see more from that party in my post, “A Pink, White, & Gold First Communion Party Vision Board.”

I wanted to reference the religious nature of the event by having a banner that read “God Bless” as a backdrop for the dessert table. I searched a few places and found the perfect pink and gold customizable alphabet banner on Etsy! The banner came with gold string, but I switched it out for twine. It felt a little more serene and appropriate for this event.

To adhere the banner to the DIY first communion party sign, I used some small white pins. I really liked the way that it looked, but it seemed a little bare. To spruce it up, I decided to add some little bunches of flowers!

I usually buy mine from Michaels or JoAnns. In fact, I just used some to create a pink and white Spring Hoop Wreath that is perfect for inside or outside! You can find out how to make that wreath HERE! Believe it or not, I found the flowers at the Dollar Tree!

I cut off the flowers from the stems and glued them together using a hot glue gun. To make them a little fuller, I added some greenery to the flowers. After that, I pinned the bunches to the sign. It added some much needed dimension! The flowers are a sweet little detail on the easiest DIY first communion party sign!

Details to DIY the First Communion Party Sign:

Materials Needed:

Step 1:

First, spell out the words you would like to create with your alphabet banner. Then, string the letters through the twine.

Step 2:

Measure the distance from one side of the pin board to other so that you can cut your twine to the appropriate size.

Step 3:

Pin your banner to the pin board using your pins.

Step 4:

Finally, pin your flowers to the pin board in different locations!
