The top bunting was made with yarn, skewers pilfered from a fondue event, and construction paper and glue. The glue didn't hold up very well after a day or so.
The bottom bunting was made with yarn, skewers, and "label tape" that we use at the lab for labeling glassware and other things. The ever-popular washi tape would probably be better here, but I craft last minute, ok? I bought the cake and made the bunting about an hour before her defense started.
I guess the bunting trifecta will only be complete once I make some fabric bunting. I do have some bare walls to decorate...
K I LOVE the idea of the congrats bunting on a plant. I think that's totally original! I've never seen it before at least. And that's such a good idea because sometimes the usual cookies/cupcakes/"insert dessert here" just gets kind of old after a while. That being said though, that coffee cake looks AMAZING. So I definitely just ate my words right there. ha, seriously I take back everything I said. I. want. that. cake. You're bunting is really cute and nicely done too, I love the colors you used.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I get kind of tired of all the sweets too, plus sometimes, little plants are cheaper than buying all kinds of fancy cakes :)
