Embroidery Hoops

Vintage Bunting

Well, we all love colourful buntings. There are so many different ideas and you cannot only use nice fabrics, but allover printed paper as well. Today’s bunting idea for our porch was to use old handkerchiefs. The result is: supernice and quick to do project! The most difficult thing was to find enough of the vintage handkerchiefs in different dessins and colours (at the Diakonie Kaufhaus I found some and on Ebay of course). How many you will need? finally I had around 30 pieces available, thats why the front door got their own bunting as well….than iron it down diagonal. As a strap I used left over gift wrapping tape. Our porch and main door entrance looks fantastic. Hope you like it as well!?

I used glue which is supposed for wallpapers. At the end it turned out to be a really quick and easy thing, and so convincing! what do you think? do you like it as much as I do?
