For parents of school-aged children the beginning of the school year means the beginning of another season altogether: birthday party season.

Hosting an Earth-friendly birthday is no small feat for green-thinking parents but here is one part of the celebration that will earn you decoration from Mother Nature herself.

Celebrate your little one’s special day again and again with this reusable birthday banner by BellaBlu Designs. Crafted from a palette of orange, green and brown prints, this jungle inspired banner is the perfect welcome for all birthday celebrations.

The handmade banner is constructed from thick, decorator weight fabric and has enough weight to support and maintain crisp edges and clean lines, party after party.

No the fabrics aren’t organic cotton or hemp but this is a decoration that can be used year after year, eliminating the need to purchase throw-away party favors that wind up in a landfill.

The fabric letters have brown piping, which holds it all together with a generous allowance at each end for tying or pinning to the wall.Each of the 14 pennants measures 7″ wide by 9″ tall. The finished banner measures 102″ long.

The artist also accepts orders for personalization, making the banner an adorable decoration for baby’s nursery or a child’s bedroom.

The BellaBludesigns banner retails for $40 and is available on the Etsy website.
