Candy Corn Halloween Banner

Get in the right mindset for celebrating by working up this Candy Corn Halloween Banner. I don't know about you, but the triangle designs just really make me think of candy corn, especially since that is very typical fall candy. Either way, this triangle schemed banner will be the perfect little accent in your home when you're throwing a Halloween party and just want to have some nice homemade decorations to flaunt a little bit. You'll love the pop of orange and black as you invite people into your home for the holiday.
