  • Unusually beautiful

  • Easy to make

They look just as good from the unlit side.


Steps At a Glance:


Ready? Here’s how:

1

You’ll need supplies for Party Banners, plus a small amount of tissue paper in any color.

Complete all the folding and cutting steps for the Party Banner.

Before unfolding the banners, cut a small shape out of the center fold. It can be a very simple shape, like this diamond.


2

Unfold the banners and open one up.

Cut a piece of tissue paper so it fits over the cutout.

Secure the tissue paper with a piece of tape at the top. That’s it!


3

Attach the stained glass banners to a string the same as for regular Party Banners.

Hang them up where they can catch a little light. It doesn’t take much light at all to make these glow.

Mix up the colors, do a rainbow progression, or make them all the same for different effects. Patterned tissue works too!


Wow, those are bright!
