DIY- Cheaters Bunting
/I would say I’m a pretty crafty person. I see things on Etsy and in fancy shops and think to myself “I could make that!” and I often do. I also often go and buy the stuff get half way through and then get excited about another project and leave the remnants on my desk for months. This happens all the time actually.
Anyways.
My hatred of buying things I know I can make is why I’ve been avoiding buying bunting, even though I think it’s the cutest thing ever. It just seems so easy, you cut out triangles sew them together, turn em inside out and sew them onto ribbon.
So I thought this would be a perfect crafty decoration for a baby shower I’m throwing next weekend. Until my sewing machine broke.
So I made things even easier. I cut out triangles and glued them onto ribbon. In fact it was so easy that it took my less then an hour to make 10 meters which I think is kind of amazing. I had loads of pretty fabric in my scrap bin so I just mix and matched it all but you could of course use any material and colour scheme you like.
Just cut out your trianges. I’d be lying if I said I measured any of them.
Lay out the ribbon and glue each triangle in place with the “right” side of the fabric face down.
And continue until you have all your desired length! As you can see, I made tons!
Let the glue dry and then hang it up or store until your ready to use it! It is actually that simple.
