A New Way to Display My 'One Little Word' Tags

For 14 years, I have been displaying my One Little Word tags on strings like a banner. As you scroll backwards through the posts, you can see the way the banner started with a single tag in 2011 then filled with seven tags in 2017. I started a second banner in 2018, which filled with the 14th tag in 2024. 

I've loved having my tags displayed that way. But with the 15th tag, I decided to do something different. Instead of starting a third banner, I moved all the tags to an unfinished wood panel by Plaid, which I painted with Folk Art black paint. I restrung the tags onto 3 strings, taped the banners into position, then used Glue Lines to secure each tag in place (affiliate links). 

I love how it turned out. 


I like that the tags are all together and I think they look really sharp against the black. Here's how they look on my wall. 



Obviously, this is a short-term solution, as there is no room for tags for 2026 and beyond. I can enjoy this for one year before I need to figure out something else. I intentionally adhered the tags in a way that I can undo this display without hurting them, so it's just a matter of deciding what my next display will look like. But that's a problem for 2026 Cindy. For now, 2025 Cindy is really happy with the way it is.
