Ok so I made this really cute and simple bunting recently and it makes any room instantly attractive!
It's also dirt cheap so if you're a Uni student this will make your room look adorable! ♥
You Will Need:
- Wallpaper or Decorative paper
- Lolly Sticks
- A ball of household string
- Ribbon
- PVA Glue / Mod Podge / UHU
- Needle & Thread
1
To begin with, Lay out your paper and draw eight or more triangles depending on how long you want your bunting to be!
2
Cut each of the triangles out, If you think you've made a crap effort at drawing them, print out a template from the internet, what is the internet for after all, teehee!
3
On the back of each triangle flag, glue the lolly sticks long each edge to make them sturdy and to stop the edges from curling.
4
Quick Tip: If you don't have enough lolly sticks then cut them in half, you only need to keep the edges straight!
5
On each of the flags you now can add an embellishment. I chose ribbon which I folded over and then sewed to each flag. You can use fake flowers, sequins, gems, even pegs and little photographs! Let your imagination run wild!
6
Now to secure the string on. You can do this two ways, either sellotape the string with a durable knot on each side to stop the sting from sliding about or hole-punch each side once and thread your string through!
Now your paper bunting is complete!
This also works really well for the festive time of year! Just use themed wrapping paper!
