The big birthday is coming around the corner. You’ve done something a little extra special in buying a personalized birthday banner. It’s cool, hip, and uniquely designed. So, you want to make the most out of it. It has you thinking as to where you should place this birthday banner.

Birthday Party Banner Outdoors:
Let’s go over why you should consider hanging the special birthday banner outside. Let’s say in this example that your birthday boy is turning eight years old. The day is going to be filled with fun. There will be cake, presents, and games. Your eight-year-old and guests around his age will inevitably be rambunctious…especially after the sugar rush from the junk food they’re likely to eat. It means you’ll probably set games up to be played outside. So if outdoors is where everyone will be, it makes sense that the banner should be out there, visible for as much time as possible.

But let’s back up. Before any of the day’s events take place, that awesome personalized happy birthday banner greets the guests outside. It’s there like a large card, a happy birthday sign of sorts. It immediately sends a couple of signals. It’s a reminder to all that the day doesn’t belong to them. It’s reserved for that birthday boy. He is the one to be celebrated on this day. The second signal is that this is going to be a day filled with fun, food, and frolicking. It sets the joyful mood before guests even enter the house. Now, that’s the way to start off a party!
Other things that a birthday banner hung outdoors will do:
- Let you create a buzz in the neighborhood (maybe area residents will break out and sing “Happy Birthday” as they walk by)
- Allow you to display to anyone driving by how much the birthday person means to you
- Safeguard that your guests find their way to the destination

Birthday Party Banner Indoors:
Time to talk about hanging that special decoration inside now. This example will have us talking about a 75-year-old birthday “boy.” Maybe his birthday is in January and he lives in the northeastern part of the country. At this time of year, it’s probably snowing, but minimally, it’s going to be extremely cold. That forces an exclusively indoor event, especially given that the birthday party won’t have outdoor dodgeball going on because he’s turning 75. So, you’re inside, period.
The celebrated one and his partygoers are watching their health. They’re not going to consume tons of junk food like those 8-year-olds were doing in the other example. What are these folks going to do to occupy their time?

Maybe play some cards. Maybe sit and reminisce about years past and memories created along the way. In this case, you’ll want to place the custom banner in whichever room is going to be occupied the most. The more they’ll be in a particular room, and the more they can notice the birthday party banner, the more they’ll be reminded how special this day is.
