A little twine and beautiful paper...



I purchased this beautiful Cavallini & Co paper awhile back...finally I got around to making some bunting with it today. I used a hole punch, twine and carefully cut the paper into squares. Once the paper was cut I simply threaded the twine through the holes to create a rather cheap and cheerful ABC bunting. I really love this paper...it has such a nostalgic and happy feel to it. I have a second piece which I think I will make into magnetic cards for the new magnetic easel. This was a quick and easy craft activity that took approximately 25 minutes...and that is with my lovely little helper assisting me.



You can never have to much bunting...x

I have this same alphabet set in cardboard flashcards that I mounted as a wall border! So sweet.

And, yes. Never such a thing as too much bunting.

Sarah,
In reply to your shortbread question: The biscuits on my header are lemon shortbreads. I've got a busy few days coming up before I fly unexpectedly to London, but will post the recipe when I get back for you.
