A quickie little project to decorate your home with love this Valentine’s Day.
I made this wee little heart pennant bunting to grace my light over the kitchen table. I’m nutz about this ‘holiday’.
How-To:
I cut little pennants from an old book page… a romance novel to be exact (hee hee). You could use ANY decorative paper, gift wrap, tissue paper – even colorful fabric scraps! Then, I used a heart punch to cut-out little hearts into each paper pennant (this may be difficult w/fabric). Next, I used a decorative tape (have you seen the large assortment in the crafts store scrapbook section?) to secure each paper pennant to a bit of baker’s twine – or yarn, or string… whatever you have on hand. You could also use a dab of glue. The idea is no fuss! Keep in mind, the scale of your project when you choose your twine.
Last, I added a quick brush-stroke of water color ( I ♥ water color paint) to ‘pretty’ the pennants. Ta Da! Perhaps you can get the kids involved to help!
This would be sweet to send to a friend in a love-note (via old-fashioned snail mail) to brighten their day… don’t you think?
Happy Sunday!
