Christmas Bunting With Template

I am soooo excited about this project because I dusted off the sewing machine and stitched ribbon and paper triangles together for this Christmas bunting.  I got a lovely Martha Stewart Crafts delivery yesterday, and couldn’t wait to make something out of this gorgeous holiday patterned paper.

Using my cricut, and this template, I cut triangles from 12×12 double sided scrapbook paper, and sewed red ribbon across the top to make the bunting.  Super easy.  I am so very proud, because I don’t sew.  My husband took it upon himself to create a perfect place for my machine while I was away on a girls weekend.  That is a whole other post.

The mirror was a garage sale score that I spray painted white.  I love the double sided scrapbook paper against the mirror.  You can’t really see the effect to well in these pics.  It was dark out.  Flash… yuck.  Anyway, it is twice the fun, as you can imagine.

If you don’t want to sew, you can create a hole near each top points of the triangle, and string your ribbon or jute through, like I showed you here.

That is my story.  What do you think?  Bunting… yes or no?
