We have had a few customers asking questions on how we made our cute Trolls banner so we thought we would do a blog post on it! You will need tissue paper, scissors, hot glue gun and our printable available here
First start out with a piece of tissue paper 11″x 3″ and fold it in half. Then make .5″ inch slits leaving about a 1″ from the creased/ folded edge. This allows you to mix & match hair and face colors to your liking and endless color combinations.
Fold the uncut portion in half
Place hot glue on the folded portion and place the cut printable face
Place a small dot of hot glue on one of the middle “Hairs”/strips
Place the hair to the right on top. The paper will buckle a bit
Repeat and place a small dot of hot glue on top of the glued hair/strand and place the right strip on top
Repeat on the other side. Your Troll will have to hair groups and look like pig tails. Place a glue dot on one side (either side will work) and then attach the opposite group on top
Let it dry for a minute or two. Then string the trolls through the hair to create the banner.
Did you print the trolls heads on cardstock?
Yes, I printed the trolls head on 110 pound yardstick, but any yardstick will do.
Did you use a regular printer? Where did you buy the card stock, I’m having a hard time finding the same colors you used.
Yes, I used a normal printer to print our the trolls heads. The paper I used was TISSUE paper, not cardstock…. but I think normal paper would work.
