I didn't take pictures of the making of these fun party banners, but they are very simple to make!
My daughter and I made a triangle pattern out of cardboard. Then laid out the rick rack ribbon the length I wanted to string the triangles, then counted triangles with the pattern how many triangles I needed to cut to fit the length of each banner.
Once I got all my triangles cut out I simply placed the rick rack on top of a triangle then sewed it together. I didn't pin it, it was pretty easy to keep it lined up and just add a triangle after each one. You will want to leave about 5-6 inches of rick rack at each end. I simply folded the rick rack in 1/2 at each end and made a loop, then stitched it next to the end triangle to make the loop for hanging it.
I mixed it up and used a variety of fabrics, sweater, doilies, denim pockets, tool. Mix it up!
