Snowmen Bunting - MERRY CHRISTMAS

I printed each sheet onto glossy photo card. So that this could be used for future years too I cut each piece out also removing the top flap section.

I then laminated each piece before trimming.

I then punched 2 holes in each piece then threaded with red organza ribbon tying a bow between Merry & Christmas to keep them apart.

This is now taking pride of place in my living room.

I printed out onto 300gsm smooth white card, cut out the pieces, scored along the fold lines and put narrow double sided tape onto the inside of the fold down flap.

I took some red and white twine and ran it between my fingers a few times to get the stiffness and the kinks out of it then carefully laid it along the fold line on the back of the piece.

I folded over the flap and stuck it down, I then did the same for the rest of the letters.

As I am going to use mine on my craft fair table tablecloth I did the MERRY and the CHRISTMAS words separately.

I made sure I left enough twine at the ends to tie the bunting up.

For my photograph I tied them to some cupboards but when I use them at the fairs I will centre the MERRY sign above the CHRISTMAS sign. (After a few hours my DST started to unstick on some of the flaps on the letters so I will cover the join with normal sticky tape).
