1. Begin by drawing a long, curved line. Note that the line points downward on each end as if forming three sides of a curved trapezoid shape.

2. Draw a curved, wavy line across one side of the banner. This line should form half of the curved bottom of the trapezoid but continue past its borders. This forms the overlap and a portion of the bottom of the banner ribbon.

A banner is "a flag or other piece of cloth bearing a symbol, logo, slogan or other message." Banners can also be made out of paper, plastic, or other materials.
The use of banners has a long history. Ancient armies, including those of ancient Rome, carried banners to identify themselves, organize groups, and communicate over long distances.
Banners have also been used in religious processions since ancient times. In medieval Europe, banners were used to display the family coat of arms of knights.
Today, banners are used by many people and organizations. Individuals may hang banners outside their homes to welcome a returning loved one or to show their support for a cause.
Businesses, schools, sports teams, and other groups use banners to advertise their products or organizations.
