{pretty paper bunting}

After seeing so many pretty bunting projects online lately I decided I needed some bunting in my life.

Oh!
....and a fun project to do with my sick-of-being-snowed-in-bored- silly-kiddos!




so I found this little jem of a project here!

How creative (and green) that she used only what she had already on hand! I have mountains of magazines & catalogs....so we were all set!!

Supplies needed:
-magazines, catalogs...or even newspaper
-string, ribbon or twine
-double sided tape
-sissors
-two really cute kids

FIRST YOU:



(some could not be parted with!)



THEN YOU:

-Find pretty pages with lots of colors and textures.
-Follow the tutorial below to cut out triangles. Mine (finished) were 6 inches in length so I stared with 6 and 1/2 inch triangles to allow for the fold but you can do any size you like.
-HAVE FUN!!! Remember...they don't have to be perfect! My kids help cut out triangles and even using the template they weren't perfect but I LOVED the sweet moments spent cuting out those triangles...and that's what matters!!












(for the record....that is not my middle finger!)



AND LOOK HOW PRETTY!!!!





....this pretty lady showcasing her rings was my favorite!!! (from an anthropologie catalog LOVE that store!!)



It makes me smile everytime I pass by and see it! The kids loved that they helped brighten up the house a little too!

We also made some paper heart strings....I'll post those delightful things tomorrow!
