Roar VBS: Easy Decorating Ideas

Roar VBS: Easy Decorating Ideas

Today I'm sharing easy decorating ideas for safari VBS. Personally, I am a huge proponent of DIY decor where the kids are truly immersed in the theme. However, even the best DIY-er needs some building blocks to enhance their handmade creations! These items will be great fillers with your VBS (or can be more substantial for your VBS if DIY isn't your cup of tea).
Shipwrecked Decorating Spaces: Sanctuary

Shipwrecked Decorating Spaces: Sanctuary

Our church sanctuary houses the opening and closing every evening of VBS.  The stage is our main VBS set and the kids are assigned to pews by their crews.  We typically spend the most time and energy on the stage decorations since they're the main set that kids will see several times each night.  Our sanctuary also houses the bible verse station.  I'll share those photos in another post!  Some of the decorations used in our sanctuary were given to us by a couple of other churches, while we made or re-purposed the…Read more …

Reusable VBS Station Sign Banners

Reusable VBS Station Sign Banners

Normally, I design station signs for each VBS curriculum.  I print them on cardstock, then laminate them and hang outside each VBS station in the church.  The signs I normally design and print are 8.5"x11" (you can see my Shipwrecked station signs here).  I may still use these signs in the future, but I'm also SUPER excited for these reusable VBS station sign banners! I've ordered several banners from Banners on the Cheap.  I've always been happy with the banner quality for the price.  Money-saving tip: Sign up for the Banners on the…Read more …
